Australia's Wildest Escape Room


You came for a rustic getaway—now you’re locked in a dodgy outhouse belonging to the infamous Aussie celebrity, Huge Axeman. The door won’t budge. The sun’s going down. And from the trees, you hear the crack of an axe and a haunting rendition of Waltzing Matilda.


Armed only with your wits, a ham radio, and a vague hope someone’s listening, can you find a way out before darkness falls? At Escape This Gold Coast, The Dunny isn’t just an escape room—it’s an all-Aussie survival challenge.

  • 🔐 How hard is The Dunny Escape Room?

    The Dunny has a difficulty rating of 7 out of 10. Bring on the challenge! In The Dunny, the clues are generally easy to find, but solving them can be a challenging, while still offering plenty of fun and excitement. Recommended for players who've experienced an escape room before, but still great for beginner-level escapers up for a bit more of a challenge. Learn more about our difficulty levels here.

  • 🚸 Is The Dunny Escape Room suitable for children?

    Absolutely! The Dunny is a very popular room with childrens groups who love the immersive feel of finding themselves locked in an outback outhouse full of all kinds of creepy crawlies. Whilst it is a very popular room with children, adults love it too. So it's a great choice for a family outing.


    A few rules though:

    1. The minimum player age is 13 years old. 
    2. If the whole group is under the age of 16 years old, a minimum group size of 4 players will apply.
    3. If the whole group is 13 and older no adult needs to remain on site.
    4. If you have a child too young to participate we can sometimes arrange for them to accompany the group as a spectator into the room.
  • 🎫 How do I book The Dunny Escape Room?

    The easiest way to book The Dunny is through our online booking widget. 


    Our website shows live availability and all bookings are confirmed immediately. It's the quickest and best way to secure your desired time slot.

  • ✋ Will our group be playing The Dunny with strangers?

    Never! At Escape This, all bookings are exclusive to your group. This has always been (and will remain to be) our policy before, during and after Covid.


    If you want to be locked in a room with a group of people you have never met before (some people do!) then we recommend you try another escape room experience provider.

  • 💳 Can I book more than one room to start at the same time?

    Absolutely, if you want to book multiple escape rooms, including The Dunny, to start at the same time. Please use our multi room booker to check availability and place a booking. 

  • 🎭 Can we come dressed up to play The Dunny?

    Absolutely! If you have ever considered dressing up for your escape room experience we encourage you to do so. Come as Steve Irwin, an outback ringer, or even an international backpacker (socks and sandals compulsary!). Bonus points to the group with the best Aussie accent.

  • ⏳ How long will the The Dunny Escape Room experience last?

    You'll have one hour to bust out of this Aussie dunny. We recommend you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled start time and if you allow for 15 minutes afterwards, to catch your breath and debrief, your whole experience will last up to 90 minutes. You may be one of the lucky ones to escape earlier, in which case your time with us may be shorter.

  • ❓ How many people can play The Dunny at the same time?

    The maximum group size that the The Dunny escape room can accomodate is 8 people.


    Our group limits are set to optimise gameplay and ensure a truly immersive experience for all our guests. Fortunately for you, it is company policy to never compromise on your gameplay experience so these limits are NOT flexible! 


    If your group is larger than 8 players we suggest that you book multiple rooms to start at the same time and split your group across the rooms. Thus ensuring the very best experience for everyone in your group.

  • 👍 Is The Dunny a good choice for my first escape room?

    First time escapers will find The Dunny quite challenging but it remains a very popular choice for first timers. So yes it's a great choice and our gamesmasters will be on hand to offer any extra clues if you need them.

  • 🗣️ What if I don’t speak English fluently?

    Spoken cues and clues are a key element of our escape rooms. Presently, these cues are only available in English, though we are working towards multi-language options. To ensure the best escape experience in the meantime, we recommend that the majority of your player group should be fluent in English.

  • 🦽 Is The Dunny a wheelchair accessible room?

    Yes! The Dunny is a wheelchair accessible escape room, and a popular one at that with our wheelchair and limited mobility patrons. Please note a limited number of puzzles may be more challenging or difficult to access from a wheelchair, but as escape rooms are a team game requiring a mix of skills and abilities from team members, this should not affect your enjoyment of our rooms. Please note, The Dunny is equipped to accommodate no more than one wheelchair per session.

  • 🦺 Are there any health & safety precautions we should know about?

    Like all escape rooms, The Dunny is a controlled lighting environment. It may feature periods of complete darkness and/or flashing lights. Similarly, you might experience confined spaces and/or jump scares during your escape. If you have any concerns or questions, please raise these with our Gamesmasters at check-in.
