Having played over 100 escape rooms, not much surprises me anymore, but FRACTURED absolutely blew me away! Owen and his team have created a game that helps players to learn and understand a story through audio, visuals, and very cleverly designed puzzles. It tugs at your emotions, and leaves you feeling like you've experienced so much more than just an escape room. Over a weekend of playing escape rooms in Melbourne, this is the one that was on everyone's lips. You absolutely MUST play it! Should be illegal not to. I would also like to thank our wonderful game master, Simon, who was charming and fun, which only added to the experience. So thank you Simon for being awesome! You guys are amazing!!! ❤❤❤

We went to Rush escape rooms as a team of 17 for a work offsite. Most of us had never experienced puzzle rooms before so didn’t know what to expect. We had a fantastic time, the rooms were fun and challenging (we did super incredibles , the Knight rises and it’s Nightmare).Michael our host was so easy to deal with and great fun on the night. The venue had a quality fit out and the rooms were well themed and well thought out. The team loved it,had a great chance to work together to solve the rooms and even experienced puzzle solvers thought the rush escape rooms were quality

We did the mad scientist as our first ever escape room. We were so close- 5 more minutes and we would have escaped! It’s started a new addiction, we will be back!

Ukiyo Melbourne

'The Crumbling Prince' is an immersive experience that transcends traditional storytelling in cinema and theatre, by making audiences the agents of their own narrative. It is played by a team of 2 to 4 players in a physical, interactive environment where you are literally present in the story world. ​ This is NOT an escape room. In the way that our previous game 'Deep Space' is one step away from an Escape Room, 'The Crumbling Prince' is another two steps forward. It’s much more like being inside a Legend of Zelda video game, or a Studio Ghibli film such as Spirited Away, or Princess Mononoke.

Escape Or Die

The most immersive escape room to hit Melbourne. Over 3 years in the making, you won't feel the same way about escape rooms after experiencing this

Reviewed By GravySpiller123 - Melbourne, Australia

Scary, funny, satisfying and smart. Like being in a thriller film! The pacing of the narrative created a great balance of tension and excitement, and the cool effects made for a seriously spooky experience. All the puzzles emphasised teamwork, exploration and lateral thinking, so when you progressed to the next step you really felt a brief sense of achievement before the room presented the next frantic challenge!
