Want to know what to expect at Game Over Vienna – before you book? We walk you through the complete experience: from arrival to the finale. No spoilers about the puzzles, but everything you need to know to start prepared.

Arrival and check-in

You'll find us at Mariahilfer Straße 103 in Vienna's 6th district – easily accessible by U3 (Neubaugasse stop, 3 minutes on foot). After check-in you'll be led to our waiting area where you can gather with your group. Our team explains the rules, gives you a brief overview and answers all questions – clearly and without spoiling the puzzle.

The briefing

Every game experience begins with a short briefing: storyline, room objective and the most important rules. No long lecture – maximum 5 minutes, then the door opens and you're right in the middle of your world. The clock starts running.

60 minutes of adventure

What happens in those 60 minutes remains our secret – but this much we can say: you'll be searching, combining, experimenting and celebrating small victories time and again. Each room is divided into sections, so the experience builds and the difficulty increases.

Our team observes via camera – not to monitor you, but to give hints if needed. You can request these at any time, they cost no points and are sometimes exactly what restores the flow of the game.

The finale and afterwards

Whether you solve the room in time or not – the game experience ends with a debriefing. Our team shows you what you missed or didn't see, and explains the solution to puzzles where you got stuck. This is often just as enlightening as the game itself – and makes you want the next adventure.
