NOT YOUR ORDINARY ESCAPE ROOM

Communication with Air Force One has been lost! Somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean, POTUS is flying blind with no comms in or out. But that's not half the problem...


Someone has also initiated the launch sequence for the United States' nuclear arsenal!! Could it be a government insider, a disgruntled nation state, or maybe even a terrorist organisation? You've got 30 minutes to avert nuclear Armageddon.


And for the first time at Escape This, not only will you be racing against time, but racing against each other, if you so choose! Have a friendly rivalry or dispute that needs resolving? Want to prove to your friends who is the better escaper? The President's Briefcase can be played simultaneously across two identical rooms in which your group will be split into two teams. Each team will encounter the same series of puzzles that will challenge you physically, mentally and visually... but which team will be the first to beat The President's Briefcase?!



T-Minus 30 minutes!

President's Briefcase reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


It was a first for all of us doing an Escape Room. Lots of fun was had and would love to do more in the future.


Veronica Candlish



⭐⭐⭐⭐


Honestly had such fun! It was challenging but, going with friends makes it so much better. I liked that you can just go with people you know. I know at other places they make you up into other groups to keep numbers up. This was a perfect pre dinner and celebration activity. Would do it again.
