About the escape room

You are a team of student scientists researching human behavior, who have decided to renew a long-forgotten and once banned experiment, based on human mind trials and studying human behavior in special conditions. Some subjects will be placed in a completely dark room without a single flash of light, while others will observe the subjects through cameras. To ensure the experiment's success, the team must become a single entity, each other's eyes, ears, intuition. You have an hour to conduct it and get out. The "Darkness" project, after many years, will be launched and conducted in the very office of the deceased doctor who founded and conducted it for the first time. What fears are you ready to face within these walls? And will you be able to overcome them? Age restrictions: 14+

AI
Brief assessment
from Navigator AI
Darkness is a rare horror/logic hybrid: you split into the “blind” and the observers, and spend an hour riding the edge of adrenaline and brainpower. If you want to really jangle your nerves and grind through puzzles in total blackness—this is the spot.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost note a dense atmosphere and consistently high tension; the darkness truly disorients. Puzzles are fair and engaging, but feel tougher without light, so beginners may struggle. The actor appears sparingly yet effectively, though some expected more interaction. Staff are attentive, react quickly, and help; communication runs via headsets/cameras.
WeaknessesSometimes lacks active actor interaction; some felt it leans more logic than horror. Occasional complaints about loud radios and disorientation in the dark. Rarely—tight spaces and the format isn’t for everyone.
StrengthsStrong role split and team coordination idea, immersive setting, darkness amplifies emotion. Good fear/logic balance, adrenaline holds to the end. Staff are engaged and gentle with players.
SecurityClear briefing before start, staff stay in touch and adapt to players’ condition. You can keep someone in a lit area, and headset comms help maintain control.
Level of fearScare level is medium+ and up, especially for the sensitive. 14+ is fine; no physical contact, but darkness and suddenness can throw you off.
Actors' gameCommon praise for sudden, precise entries, atmospheric delivery, and careful work without contact. A couple of reviews say the actor interacts little, focus is on logic and observation.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles are logical and varied, no trickery, but take longer in the dark. Requires clear comms between those inside and those watching via cameras. For newcomers the difficulty can be above average; for veterans, just right.
PlotA story about reviving a forbidden experiment in a deceased doctor’s office, where part of the team goes into total darkness and part observes. The plot is delivered through atmosphere and roles, without extra spoilers.
Difficulty levelDifficulty is medium: when you’re scared, thinking is harder, so newbies may hit rough patches. Experienced teams will power through with drive, but won’t get to relax.

Really enjoyed the new format: you run around in the dark and give hints from the “light” zone. The tasks aren’t tricky on paper, but in complete darkness they take much longer to solve. I liked that we tried both roles and felt the difference. The administrator was great—everything was clear and to the point.

Went as a women’s group 40+, chose fear level 'two'. I liked it; one of us felt unwell — they had no problem leaving her in the light zone, special thanks for that. They do scare you, but without physical contact — keep that format in mind. The downside was having to spend a long time explaining via the cameras why we were leaving a participant 'in the light'. Otherwise, everything was excellent.

We booked as soon as we saw the new release. The actor appears sharply and right on cue—every entrance is memorable. The headset concept is fantastic, an ideal compromise for those who can’t choose between logic and horror. Administrator Kristina gave a clear briefing.

We went for an adrenaline rush and didn’t regret it: the darkness presses in, yet your brain still has to work. We liked that hints don’t come immediately—you have to talk and cooperate. We left happy and exhausted, like after a solid escape-room session.

Great concept, but the execution felt flat, without any wow moments. It lacked standout scenes, the actor doesn't interact much, and the focus is on logic. If you want something trashier, this company has other options, while 'Darkness' is more of a calm, puzzle-focused horror.

Great idea with dividing players into the 'dark' and the observers. We were screaming, getting disoriented, but team communication pulled us through and helped us solve things. Tons of emotions—and all that without any rough physical contact. I recommend it to groups where opinions are split between horror and logic.

We went as a pair; the darkness does its job—your imagination fills in the rest. One watched and helped us orient ourselves while the other made their way through; the actor built the tension perfectly. Administrator Alexandra was very pleasant, set everything up, and was supportive. We left thrilled.

You rarely come across an escape room that's both scary and makes you think. I thought I wouldn't get scared, but in the dark I changed my mind very quickly. The idea of watching your friends and guiding them is awesome—I even deliberately steered them closer to the actor. We laughed a lot and got really scared—10 out of 10.

For those who enjoy moderate difficulty but are after genuine thrills — it’s a bullseye. The concept is strong, the execution meticulous, logic and adrenaline go hand in hand. This team rarely misses, and 'Darkness' is no exception.

It may feel a bit tough for beginners because of the darkness; we got stuck a couple of times, but the logic is fair. The atmosphere is good, the actor appears on cue without overdoing it. Overall, a solid four.

This was our third escape room — we usually avoided horror ones. The takeaway is simple: when it’s scary, your brain slows down and puzzles take longer to solve. Emotions were off the charts; now we want to try even scarier formats.

Both funny and scary — the perfect mix. We genuinely jumped a couple of times, and the ending finished us off. Great work by the team; we'll be back.
