WHO Sustainable Development Goals

Welcome to Tairawhiti's first escape room powered by Taiki E! Next Gen.

A group of local rangatahi from the Taiki E! Next Gen Entrepreneurship Club came up with the idea to create an escape room to combat the lack of entertainment for people in the area. Next Gen Escapes was born and for the last 12 months they have been working hard to develop their business idea and skills to bring it to life. A big focus of Tāiki e! Next Gen is the Sustainable Development Goals and generating positive impact in our community.

WHAT IS AN ESCAPE ROOM?

Learn more about how we operate.

What is it?

An escape room is a room of connected puzzles and other methods to build a story around a particular theme. A small team works together to complete the tasks in order to escape the room within a specific time limit.

Who can play?

It is best played in a team of 3-4 players but you can take on the challenge with a partner if you wish. 

Players need to be age 6 and up. Those under the age of 15 require a paid adult with them at all times. The room does require a range of problem solving skills and can be complex for young players.

The room is compact so accessibility can be challenging if you require space to move.

How to play:

Make your booking online via our website. Arrive 15 minutes before your time slot to avoid wasting some of your booking time. Take part in a short safety briefing. Enter your room and the time will start. Work together to escape the room before the time runs out.

Salvation Rising

The year is 2050 and the effects of climate change have been more catastrophic than originally foreseen. Humans have been forced under ground where the carbon dioxide remains at levels habitable for humans.

You have been given information about an old climate change researcher who was working on an invention to save humanity.

You have one hour to figure out the secrets to obtain this invention in order to save humankind. 

Suitable for new players, a great room for the whole family with challenges for all ages!

Under 15s must be accompanied by a paying adult. Play in teams of 2-4 people.
