Very challenging but a totally enjoyable experience. The staff are so helpful and supportive. I recommend this to anyone.
Thank you, Mary, for the awesome 5-star review and kind words about our staff. We are stoked you enjoyed the room, and we hope to see you back for another escape! Cheers, The Confinement Taupō Team
First experience with a escape room, this is the second hardest one we were told. Room is dark so need a lantern which is supplied.. they have QR codes to scan for clues if needed but takes off time on your hour. A real brain work out. Some parts are easy and other parts are real challenging. Give it a go..
Thank you for the 5 stars and such a kind review Vanessa! We hope you come back again soon to try our other rooms! Ngā mihi, the Confinement Taupō team
It was very good set up, definitely a challenge to complete the advance level!
Thank you, Andres, for the 5-Star review! We're glad you had a great time and that the Cursed Cabin gave you a challenge. We hope to see you again. Thank you, The Confinement Taupō Team
Excellent escape room experience. Challenging for all. Scanable hints made it doable. Well run. Thanks
Thank you, Vicky, for the 5-Star review! We are thrilled you had a great time with us. We look forward to seeing you again. Cheers, The Confinement Taupō Team

Highly recommend.
Had the absolute best time!! We came here whilst travelling 2 years ago and absolutely loved it. So when on this current visit to beautiful Aotearoa we knew we had to come back. My wife and I love escape rooms and try to do at least one wherever we travel in the world. Confinement is the best escape rooms we have ever done anywhere. So much so, we did all 4 of their escape rooms and also their outdoor scavenger hunt on this visit. The rooms are so clever and thrilling to complete and the staff are amazing. So friendly, kind and genuinely want you to have a great experience. I would like to thank Deiryn, Emily and Maia for all of their hand work and for helping make our visit so happy and memorable. We will be back again for sure on our next visit. Cannot recommend this place enough.
