25.01.2022 Hello world! Looking for something to help pass the time while you're social distancing? There's a puzzle game you can play that might help crowd-source a COVID-19 vaccine!... Stay safe out there, and happy puzzling!

25.01.2022 Security Breach! We would like to apologise to anyone who may have received spam sent from our email address over the last few days. On Wednesday, December 12th, what appears to have been a spam-bot took control of our account resulting in countless unwanted emails being sent to our customer base. If you have received one of these emails, entitled Receipt of Payment, please avoid opening and delete immediately as it will continue to spread the spam to your contact list. Please accept our deepest apologies and we can assure you that steps have been taken to eliminate these annoyances.

24.01.2022 Hello fellow humans! It is with great sadness that we regret to inform you that as of this evening (March 18th) Escape Room Melbourne will be closing it's doors until further notice due to the mounting health risks of the COVID-19 virus. We absolutely WILL be back up and running as soon as it is safe to do so, but in the mean time we believe we have an obligation to the community to shut down our services in order to help flatten the curve on the transmission rate to give our... hospitals and health-workers a fighting chance. We will be contacting those of you with bookings in the coming weeks to offer refunds, or to move those bookings to a future date so they can be more easily rescheduled when things get a little more back to normal. Any currently-purchased vouchers set to expire over the next few months will still be valid when we re-open. We urge everyone out there to please: Go out in public for vital needs only Wash hands frequently Maintain social distancing Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth A great idea for supporting any small local business during this time is to purchase a gift card so you can have something to look forward to when we're all on the other side of this. Please stay safe out there, and continue to look after one another. With great Love, The Escape Room Melbourne Team
