“It was great fun! We were a group of four people. For three of us, it was the first time doing an escape room and I can tell, we enjoyed it a lot. Great atmosphere, nice rooms and very tricky tasks made it hard for us to make it through, but in the end we managed to finish the Escape Room just in time. Definitely reccomend this activity if you are in Molde and looking for some fun.”
