Make time for these

From the kid-friendly Ghost Zone to the 75-minute Zombie Roadhouse, there's something for every crew. In Ghost Zone you become a ghost to free a ghost, Heart of a Pirate is a linear voyage for small puzzle-loving groups, and Ringmaster's Den brings circus fun and carnival games. Chamber of Illusions is a multi-room magic-show mystery, and the head-to-head version of Ringmaster's Den pits 14 to 24 players against each other. Your game host stays in costume as a character from the theme the whole way through.

  • Head-to-head game for up to 24 players
  • A costumed game host in every game
  • Kid-friendly Ghost Zone for first-timers
