Escape rooms on Frankenmuth's Main Street, wrapped in the legend of a German mountain spirit: an art-gallery heist, a pirate brig and a 1925 speakeasy. We couldn't confirm it's still running in 2026, so call before you go.

02 / The story of this place

Make time for these

According to the house legend, in 2016 Rübezahl, the German mountain spirit, had his gnomes build a lair here whose chambers are portals to the past. Four games run: The Heist has you lifting a diamond from a Frankenmuth collector's private gallery, Black Beard's Brig holds you captive on Blackbeard's ship, Lucky Duck Speakeasy drops you into a 1925 Prohibition raid, and Immunity Quest is a shorter island game. Tickets are sold by the seat, so a small group may share a room with strangers unless you buy it out.

  • The whole place is wrapped in the Rübezahl legend
  • Four games, including a 1925 speakeasy
  • Well-lit rooms, and nobody jumps out at you

Plan your visit

Book online; tickets are sold per seat, so buy every seat if you want the room to yourselves. Groups go up to 8, and it's recommended for players 10 and up. Give them a call before you head over.

Accessibility

Rooms are well lit and nobody jumps out to scare you; it's not a haunted house.

Save the plan. Share the moment.
