What is a Roaming Riddle Mobile Escape Room?

Our mobile escape rooms are fun, full-featured, and immersive escape rooms that we bring to you! Your group enters one of our themed escape rooms. The clock begins counting down. Together, your group must search for clues, solve puzzles, crack codes, and unravel riddles all in an attempt to solve the room’s mystery before time runs out. Everything you need to solve the escape room is within the room itself. You just have to figure it out! Our Submarine: Heroes Below escape room is in a state-of-the-art, climate controlled, Escape Room Trailer. It is fully enclosed from the elements with insulated walls, heat, air conditioning, lights, and a self-powered generator.  We can park our Escape Room Trailer outside your home, office, church, school, park or almost anywhere you choose. Our other mobile escape rooms are set up in our custom designed, fully enclosed Escape Room Tent. With their immersive décor and thrilling props and puzzles, we can set up these escape rooms almost anywhere, indoors or outside. All we need is an open and flat 14x14 foot space, an electrical outlet and at least an 8-foot ceiling (if setting up indoors). For all of our games, a gamemaster will ensure that your escape game experience is a smooth and enjoyable one.


How long are your escape games?

We have 60, 45, 30, 20 and 15-minute escape games available for Submarine Heroes Below. We have 30 and 20-minute escape games available for our other escape rooms. Each game is designed to deliver a unique, fun and exciting escape room adventure for your event. We need about 15 minutes between games to take pictures of the group that just played, reset the room, and prepare the next group to play.


How many people can play at a time? 

For most of our escape rooms, we recommend up to 6 players at a time, but no more than 8. For the Lab Techs Save The Day escape room, we recommend no more than 5 players at a time.


CAN YOU SET UP AN ESCAPE ROOM INDOORS?

Yes, we definitely can! We can set up Search For A Masterpiece, Raising Frankenstein, Lost Pharoah, Lab Techs Save the Day, Holiday Market Mayhem, or Holiday Rescue inside your home, office, conference room, school, garage or any indoor space. We will need a flat and open 14x14 foot space, an electrical outlet, and at least an 8-foot ceiling. Due to the size and weight of our equipment and props, we cannot do stairs.


How much space do you need to operate your escape games?

For the Submarine Heroes Below Escape Room Trailer, we need about 60 feet of open parking space (about 10 parking spaces), preferably on a flat surface, and room to maneuver the truck and trailer.  Set up takes about 45 minutes. Our other mobile escape rooms are in our custom-designed Escape Room Tents. For those games, we need a 14x14 foot space, an electrical outlet, and at least an 8-foot ceiling (if setting up inside). Set up takes about one and half to two hours. Please contact us if you have any questions about whether your location is suitable for our mobile escape games.


Can YOU CREATE A Customized ESCAPE ROOM For Our Event?

Yes, we definitely can! We have designed customized escape rooms for several clients. For example, we created customized escape rooms for the St. Louis Science Center and the St. Louis Art Museum. We also created an outdoor escape room / scavenger hunt for pet owners and their dogs called The Fox and the Hound Person and Pooch Experience. And we specifically created “Lab Techs Save The Day” for the chemistry department at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville to help train and teach future laboratory technicians. If you are interested in a customized escape room, please contact us to discuss the possibilities.


What areas do you serve? 

We primarily serve the St. Louis metropolitan area. Because we are mobile, we can travel outside of the St. Louis area — usually within a four-hour radius.  Travel charges apply to destinations over 30 miles from our location. We have served customers in Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Arkansas, Indiana and Tennessee! Please contact us if you want to know if we can travel to your event!


Am I actually locked in your escape room?

No.  At Roaming Riddle, we NEVER physically lock our players in any space.  You will always be free to leave at any time.


Who can play the game?  Is there an age limit?

Roaming Riddle mobile escape rooms are the perfect entertainment for people of virtually all ages, different educational backgrounds, diverse experiences, all skill levels and different physical abilities.  No prior escape room experience is necessary. All you need are your wits and sense of adventure! Our escape games are suitable for ages 10 and up.  If needed, younger groups will have a game master in the room with them to help them work together to solve the clues and puzzles.

What happens in the event of inclement weather? 

Roaming Riddle’s Submarine Heroes Below escape room is in a fully enclosed trailer and can usually operate in different kinds of weather. The Escape Room Tent games can operate indoors if weather is a concern. However, heat, cold or windy conditions may render the tent games not suitable for outdoor play and we will need to set up indoors. If the weather conditions present the possibility of danger or extreme conditions, we reserve the right to reschedule the event to another day/time of the client’s choosing.


Do I need to sign a liability waiver to play?

Yes.  All participants need to sign a liability waiver to play our escape games.  Any participant under the age of 18 must have a parent or legal guardian sign the waiver for them.  You can download the waiver here.
