One team, two brands, two distinctive venues

Locked Room opened in 2013, and AROOM was born in 2017. Today we welcome our guests at two venues close to each other in Budapest, with one team and one booking system. Two separate worlds, the same commitment to detailed, memorable adventures.

Both venues are in downtown Budapest, in the 6th district. The two addresses are a few minutes' walk from each other.

Our story

A story, not just a theme

When we started, most escape rooms did not even have a theme. We gave the game a story, and we have been building on that ever since.

Locked Room opened in 2013, and AROOM was born in 2017 as the same creative team's new-generation escape room brand. Today we welcome our guests at two venues close to each other in Budapest, with games of different moods made with the same craft.

The two brands share one team, one professional background, and one operator: Locked Services Kft.

  1. 2013-16Locked RoomBeginnings in BudaLocked Room opened in early 2013 at Vérmező út 10-12. Its first games, The Missing Relative and Serial Killer, were among the first in the world built not just on a theme but on a story. This marked a generational shift in the early days of the genre.
  2. 2013-14Locked RoomEscape Room of the CountryThanks to puzzles tuned to the story, mechanisms of our own design, electrically powered game elements and a well-composed sequence of tasks, Locked Room quickly became popular. It was voted Escape Room of the Country in both Exitgames.hu contests, in 2013 and 2014.
  3. 2014Locked RoomInternational echoThe venue debuted new games. We also staged the game as a pop-up production in our own tent at Sziget Festival, mainly for international visitors who were just getting to know the genre.
  4. 2014-Locked Room20 countriesThe escape genre took off internationally too. Our team installed, built and manufactured games in 20 countries.
  5. 2015Locked RoomMoving downtownThe Buda venue became too small, and with so much international interest we also built games downtown. This is when the Székely Mihály utca games were built.
  6. 2016-Locked RoomNumber one on TripadvisorIn 2016 Locked Room reached first place on Tripadvisor based on guest reviews, and it has held it since. Locked Room is one of the most acclaimed Hungarian escape rooms.
  7. 2017AROOMAROOM is bornA few hundred metres from Locked Room, we opened a new venue on Király utca under the name AROOM, with a new vision. We brought in real set building: with sculptors and set builders we created spaces where you truly believe you are part of the adventure. Using the two-storey ceiling height, we started building large-scale adventure games.
  8. 2018-Locked RoomNew-generation renewalSince 2018 we have been replacing the Locked Room games with a new-generation experience, rebuilding them one by one, entirely as new missions or in part, but every game is renewed and gets a modern drive. Quality and an outstanding game experience matter most to us. A room is not enough if you only like it in the first minutes because it looks good - we create complex experiences that draw you in from start to finish.
  9. 2020-21Locked RoomOnline escape roomsAmong the first in the world, we brought some of our games online for players who, in lockdown and apart, could still take part together as one team, with the help of our camera-equipped game masters. It was a solution unique worldwide.
  10. 2021-AROOM + Locked RoomInternational recognitionSince 2021 our games have been made with even more striking design and at an even higher technical level, and international awards and nominations for our rooms have kept coming.
  11. 2023AROOM + Locked RoomBest of MortyThere are about 60,000 escape games in the world. Since 2022 the Morty app has listed the most acclaimed of them. Only a few hundred games make the list each year, so it is a major recognition. Morty.app is a professional rating we are very proud of. We would like to make being on the list a tradition: so far we have made it three years in a row.
  12. 2026-Locked RoomAdventure games for everyoneWe are modernising the Locked Room games into adventure games with the same approach. We want to welcome beginner teams and involve children too, so many of our games are now family-friendly.
