It’s fantastic to hear our staff made your experience even better. We look forward to welcoming you back for more family adventures! Kind regards, The Thrillzone Team
So much fun and the team there helping us were awesome. We went as a family of 4 with 2 kids 12 and 8yo. The medium room was a bit over the head of the 8 year old but he still had fun. Was perfect for our 12 year old. Great family outing! Thanks!
Very good staff! My family enjoyed the game. My best experience of playing escape room in Auckland. We decided to play another theme during Christmas. Can’t wait!
