About
The Takapuna branch is the bigger and more varied of the two, five minutes from the beach and on street level, which makes it the accessible one. Four indoor rooms and an outdoor game. Sugar Rush is the newest, a gingerbread cottage with a candy cane prison. Backstage Pass puts you backstage in the seventies with a sold-out crowd and a missing singer. Jail Break is the classic framed-for-a-crime setup. Mountain Blizzard is the interesting one, built as two identical rooms so two teams can race each other, taking up to sixteen players across both. Fugitive Hunt runs outdoors through Takapuna for up to thirty players. Difficulty on most rooms is adjustable between easy, moderate and expert, so a mixed group can be pitched properly. There is a licensed lounge with catering.
