How The Dark Curse Escape Room Works
The trick to escape rooms is all about team work! Communicate effectively with your team, think outside the box, and pay attention to detail. Work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and unlock hidden secrets within the room to ultimately achieve your goal of escaping within the time limit.
No, participants are not actually locked in escape rooms. The goal is to solve puzzles and find clues to escape within a set time limit, typically 60 minutes. Participants can leave the room at any time if needed. The event is monitored closely by the escape room staff, and you are able to ask to leave at any point.
In this innovative outdoor escape room, your group splits into smaller teams. Each uses a mobile app to navigate GPS hotspots, picking up tools and magic points along the way.
The Dark Curse escape room is a great way to explore new locations. It can be played outdoors or indoors, and it can add enchantment to conferences, team meetings or private parties.
The Dark Curse takes 90 minutes to work its magic.
An escape room is an immersive, interactive game where players work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and accomplish tasks in order to achieve a specific goal within a limited amount of time, usually to escape from a room or location. Escape rooms are a great way to improve team work by encouraging communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills among team members.
Yes, escape rooms can be a healthy and fun activity for individuals and groups. They promote teamwork, problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and communication.

Client Kudos
Thank you to Mike, Ross and Sandy from Maximillion for the team building in the afternoon, murder mystery that evening, Belbin Team Roles next morning, a fantastic team building session in the afternoon and, finally, a great barbecue that evening provided by Norton House. Although some of us were a bit slow of the mark the second day, the same positive attitude and enthusiasm from day one prevailed and I think we all got something out of it. It was clear to me that everyone was communicating and working together better by the end of the afternoon.

Everything from start to finish was amazing and Jenny kept in constant contact – couldn’t fault Jenny or the company whatsoever. Organisation/Communication was 100% perfect.
White & Mackay
Fantastic day and really enabled people to get to know each other and have a laugh at the same time. Exactly the aim!

I received emails from the participants saying how much they enjoyed the event. Our HR manager stated he would use Maximillion again. Many thanks for all your effort.

Overall Maximillion were fantastic to work with, they were really flexible and happy to work within our event timings and budget. I had several planning calls with them in advance so felt safe in their hands.

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

Everyone had a really good time and loved all the different levels and variety that Level-Up brought. Maximillion always provide an excellent event and guide you through the organising process with clarity, confidence and advice.

Just a note to say thanks for all your help with the Yamaha event last week. It went very well, and the client was very happy. I know she was a bit worried just because of experiences at other venues around the world where things have not gone according to plan. So for us to arrive and see it all set and ready to roll, put her mind at rest.

Sarah and her team have proved invaluable to the organisation of our flagship event held in London. We partner with leading physicians from across the world to bring the latest thinking in cardiology to the participants, who come from many countries. This requires a team that operates to a high standard and can offer an experience that all involved remember. A foundation of this is the attention to detail, and a drive to get it right – mostly hidden from all when working well, but very obvious if not done. I have no hesitation to recommend Sarah and her team if you have an event you wish to deliver a the highest standards. The Optima team sends all our thanks to them.
