What is the hardest Escape This room in Australia?

Which five Escape This rooms are the hardest to escape?

By escape rate, among Escape This rooms with 100+ games: 1. Cannibal, Northbridge (28%), 2. The Possession, Northbridge (31%), 3. High Noon, Perth CBD (32%), 4. Zombie Apocalypse, Northbridge (33%) and 5. Buried Alive, Northbridge (33%). Four of the five are in Northbridge.

Which Escape This room do the most teams escape from?

Pirates at Escape This Melbourne CBD has the highest escape rate among ranked Escape This rooms: 99% over 138 games. Magic School at Escape This Manly follows at 97%. A room with a high rate can still be tight on time, so check its average winning time too.

Is a low escape rate the same as a hard room?

Mostly, but not entirely. Escape rate measures how often teams beat the clock, and Escape That uses it as the difficulty ranking because it is the one measure every room shares. It also reflects who books a room: horror rooms with 18+ age limits draw different groups from family adventures at Escape This.
