The Dunny is a true blue Aussie adventure playing right in Sydny's beautiful Manly Beach at Escape This' escape rooms venue. A short stroll along The Corso to nearby city restaurants, cafes, hotels, Manly Wharf and Manly Beach, The Dunny really is centrally located!

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.

Absolutely! The Dunny is very popular with children's groups who love the immersive feel of finding themselves in the Aussie outback. And 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. We welcome children from age 7 to play as paid participants in a family group, though do recommend 9+ years is more suitable for maximum room engagement and enjoyment.
2. Groups with children aged 9 and under require a parent or guardian be in the room as a paid participant.
3. If the group contains children aged 10-13 years, then an adult must remain onsite for the duration of the booking but does not need to accompany the group into the room.
4. If the whole group is 14 and older no adult needs to remain on site.
5. Children under 3 years old may accompany their parents as spectators in the room, at our discretion, without charge, though they do always count towards the room’s player capacity.

The simplest way is to check availability and book online here. Our website shows live availability and all bookings are confirmed immediately. It's the quickest and best way to secure your desired time slot.

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.

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. 

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.

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.

The maximum group size that the The Dunny escape room can accomodate is 6 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 6 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.

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.

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.
