FAQ

Booking (Cost, Events, Vouchers)

"I would like to surprise someone with 'escape' as a gift! How can I do that?"

You can purchase a gift voucher for your recipient conveniently online, here.
You can either print or send the voucher to the recipient and its voucher number can be applied to the reservation when booking online.

"What happens if my voucher's promotional value expires?"

After the expiration date of your coupon, its promotional value expires, but you can still redeem it at the PanIQ Room for the amount you have paid. For example, if you paid $99 for a coupon redeemable for a $149 ticket, that coupon is still valid for $99 worth of ticket. Our system will accept your reservation, and you will have to pay the $50 difference at the door to play. To make a reservation using an expired voucher, please contact us at [email protected]!

"The number of participants showing up may differ from the number that was booked. Is this a problem?"

No, it's not! In this case you don't need to call us. It's okay if we learn the final number of your group at the door. Group limits are always suggested for optimal experience - the ideal group is between 4 and 6 people - and the maximum number we allow is 7.

"What is the difference between the rooms?"

They differ in their story, mood, design, size, difficulty, available time to escape and objectives. Each one is unique and offers a different experience. The goal remains the same: "Escape!" We are keeping the rest a secret for now!
