Lots of people choose to do this great activity as a way to kick off their hen or stag party, and then continue on to a meal, pub or a show afterwards.
I'm planning my friend's hen/stag party and want to include this as part of our day out. How many of us can you accommodate?
At AdventureRooms Dublin we currently have four games: The Original Swiss and The Black Queen at our Little Britain St location, and The Oriiginal Swiss and World Trip at our Green St location. The Original Swiss can accommodate up to 12 players when booked as a 6 v 6 duel, the Black Queen can accommodate up to 14 players when booked as a 7 v 7 duel, and World Trip can accommodate up to 14 players when booked as a 7 v 7 duel. In order to accommodate a large group, it is necessary to book more than one game for the same time slot, and your group would be divided among the games.
What do you mean by "duel" game?
For groups that are larger than 6-7 people, we offer the duel format in order to accommodate more players. This is where the game is split in half, and split into two 30-minute rounds instead of a classic one-hour game. You split your group up into two smaller teams and the game is split into two rounds of 30 minutes each. In the first round, Team A is trying to break into the room where Team B is playing, while Team B is trying to escape before Team A catches them. After this 1st round we re-set the game and the teams switch sides and play an additional 30 minutes. At the end of the game on team is declared the winner. The winner is determined by whoever escapes the quickest, or if no team escapes, it is whoever has completed the most number of puzzles.
What is the price?
Please see our pricing page. Price depends on the number of people you book, but it averages between 18-20 euro per person. The hen or the stag come FREE if you have a minimum of 8 people, so when you are booking, please book for one less person than you would normally book for. If you have 7 people or less, there are no free participants.
What is your availability?
You can check the availability on our “availability and bookings” page – select the game and date that interests you, and all of the time slots in RED are the ones that are still available.
I can't use my card to pay for everyone at once. Can everyone just pay separately for their game?
Payment is required at the time of booking to guarantee your appointment. The way it has worked successfully in the past is that one person gathers payment from the rest of the party and that person pays for the group. From an administrative standpoint, we cannot accept individual payments for one game – it must be paid as a whole.
I'm unsure of how many are coming. Can I provisionally book, or can you hold a spot for me until I am sure?
We don’t hold spots or take provisional bookings. If you are unsure of how many people are coming, just book for less people than you are expecting to come. If more people show up, you can always pay the difference on the day.
What other activities do you offer?
We don’t have any other activities other than our games. Our games last roughly one hour. If you are playing a duel format game, please allow roughly 1.5 hours.
We would like to go get something to eat either before or after the game. Can you recommend anywhere nearby?
There are a number of places nearby. The Church Bar, The Black Sheep, Oscar’s Cafe Smithfield, Jo’Burger, Bel Cibo, Brother Hubbard, Doppio Zero, WigWam, Wallace’s Italian Tavern, are a few in the nearby Capel Street/Abbey Street/Smithfield areas.
