Outdoor Escape is a fun game format suitable for all ages. Part escape room, part scavenger hunt and part augmented reality, players need to work together to find the clues and solve the puzzles.
Challenge yourself in our Escape Adventure as you take on a riveting Scavenger Hunt, Escape Room, and Augmented Reality (AR) in Auckland's stunning Takapuna area!
At the start of this outdoor game, you’ll be faced with your first mystery. To solve this mystery, you’ll receive an escape kit with all the tools and technology you and your team need to solve the mystery before the clock runs out. While enjoying fascinating AR features and geolocation technologies, you must focus on investigating the streets of Takapuna, locating clues, solving puzzles, and breaking codes. Without the limits of a physical room, your possibilities are limitless.
AR-enhanced challenges and tasks await you, but as you’re having fun uncovering clues and piecing the puzzle together, keep in mind you are still racing against the clock.
Can you solve the mystery before the clock runs out?
With 3 game options to choose from:
- Easy [approx. 60 minutes]
- Medium [approx. 90 minutes]
- Hard [approx. 120 minutes]
We have something for everyone whether you’re the code crackers, puzzlers, or the experienced mystery solvers. Choose your difficulty, then on the day, chat with the team to decide on what storyline you want to play. No notice required!
Storylines to choose from:
Operation Mindfall:
According to our sources, Spider Technologies has created a virus for mind control. It’s already infected 20% of the world's population changing citizens shopping habits, political beliefs, or influencing assassinations. We developed Operation Mindfall to stop Spider Tech and picked you as our agents.
Your mission: Find the cure to Spider Tech’s lethal virus! Can you complete the task in time? We’re counting on you!
(Available as Easy, Medium and Hard)
Magic Portal:
Since the beginning of time, magic portals protected by guards, connected our world to a wonderful parallel realm. Unfortunately, one of the gateway guardians has been thrown into a magical sleep, allowing bad creatures to enter and wreak havoc in our realm.
Your mission: Solve puzzles in magical locations to collect enough crystals to re-seal the Magic Portal and restore our planet.
(Available as Easy, Medium and Hard)
Operation Blackout:
Your city power plant was hacked by an unknown group of hackers, causing one of the biggest threats in modern times: a Blackout!
The consequences are the complete collapse of the modern world as we know it. Unknown to the population, your city is currently already running on emergency power. As this is a mission of the utmost importance to the whole world!
Your mission: Save your city. Good Luck. Over and out.
(Available as Easy, Medium and Hard)

Kia Ora Dionne, thank you for your lovely feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed our Outdoor Escape and hope to see you again for more thrilling VR experiences! All the best, your Thrillzone Team
We had some fun to go out for a walk, but turn out have some problem with the kits and nearly can’t complete it. Recommend to have the family and pet to run , don’t think why they don’t allow people under 14. A bit too easy for adult
Kia Ora Kim, we are glad you enjoyed our Escape Adventure even with small issues on the way. There must have been some miscommunication, as we do offer different levels of difficulty dedicated to players of all ages - easy level works for teams with kids 5-10 years old, medium for teenagers and inexperienced adults, and hard for avid escape game players. We hope you visit us again and explore the different activities our store offers! Kind regards, your Thrillzone Team.
Fun with the kids. Did two easy options. Both are same route so would recommend trying easy and if doing a different one try harder Level. Great with children aged 8+
Hi Jafaj, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed our Escape Adventure so much that you did it twice. It's a great piece of advice to try something harder for the second game if you did well the first time. We hope to see you again - we also offer plenty of fun VR options your kids will love. All the best, your Thrillzone Team.
To be honest, As adults , We do not like this game , but my daughter and her friend are kind of like it
Kia Ora Anna, thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad your daughter and her friend enjoyed their experience. We offer two different missions (Magic Portal, a children-friendly one with trolls and crystals, and Mindfall, a more mature mission where you stop a terrorist attack) on three levels of difficulty with the intention of being able to match our customers with the best experience for them. We are sorry it did not work out so well for you. We hope you give us another chance - we also offer plenty of different VR options and our friendly staff is always there to help you choose the best option and games for you.
