Discovered one big advantage of staying here - there is a bus stop just in front of the hotel to take the cheap JPY900 Keisei Airport shuttle bus to the Narita airport. The bus stop coming from the airport alights on the other side just in front of the Tokyo station.

密室游戲 Real life escape game
Recommend:
監獄風雲 Prison Break (group limit of 5 people) HKD128 / 45 mins
(**check website for other games)
Comment:
Newly introduced to Hong Kong and opened in Mong Kok in Nov 2012. Different games (although currently very limited) are available for various group sizes. For a group of five we were suggested to try out the 'Prison Break' first before the other one called 'Dr. Alpha's Lab' which apparently is more difficult.
So we basically had a total of 45 minutes to break out of a prison cell...only that this prison cell was divided into two sections by iron bars (like that of a real prison) before unlocking the final door to break out. One free hint is optional to use anytime by pressing a button on the wall inside where the staff will step in to provide the clue. We ended up using it for opening the second last treasure chest to get a key and had we not used it I believe we wouldn't have escaped in time. With just around six minutes left on the clock, we managed to crack all the codes, find all necessary useful tools, open all our treasure chests and find all our keys.
We were quite impressed with the flow and level of the obstacles designed for the game giving players a well-balanced combination of intellectual and somewhat physical challenges.
Overall great fun and strongly recommend for those who have always imagined what it'd be like in those movies deciphering codes and finding ways to escape under the pressure of time...

you get to hold a 'succeed' or 'fail' board and stand in front of their backdrop for a free polaroid photo (left)
you may choose to stick your polaroid on their board or take it away with you as a souvenir
