Difficulty questions

Are more teams escaping Escape This rooms now than before?

Yes. The Escape This escape rate over the last 12 months is 66%, against 48% over all logged games, and 5 of the 5 centres are running at or above their own all-time rate over the last 12 months, so it is not just one centre’s mix.

What is the hardest Escape This room in Australia?

Buried Alive at Escape This Northbridge, going by escape rate over the last 12 months. Only 40% of its games in that time ended in an escape, the lowest of the 38 Escape This rooms with 100 or more games in the last 12 months. High Noon at Escape This Perth CBD is next at 41%.

Which five Escape This rooms are the hardest to escape?

By escape rate over the last 12 months, among Escape This rooms with 100+ games in that time: 1. Buried Alive, Northbridge (40%), 2. High Noon, Perth CBD (41%), 3. Cannibal, Northbridge (42%), 4. Zombie Apocalypse, Northbridge (43%) and 5. Entombed, Perth CBD (48%). Three 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 over the last 12 months: 99%. Magic School at Escape This Manly follows at 98%. 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.

Why does Escape That only rank rooms with 100 or more games?

A room’s first few dozen games swing its escape rate wildly, and new rooms often start easy. Escape That ranks only Escape This rooms with 100 or more games in the last 12 months; the 3 rooms below that line are listed as not ranked yet.
