Since 2013
We wrote the book on escape games in Singapore. Now we bring them to you.
The Escape Artist pioneered real-life escape rooms here more than a decade ago. Today we run the same craft at scale, as offsite games for teams of 10 to 1,000+ at venues across the island.
A note on our outlet
Our HarbourFront outlet closes end of July 2026.
As we go fully offsite, we are closing the retail rooms. Still after a physical escape room to walk into? One of our event partners has you covered.
The pivot
Why we went offsite
A fixed room seats a handful of people at a time. A great offsite game can take a whole company through the same thrill on the same day, at a venue that means something. Over the years, the offsite side of our business became the part clients kept coming back for, so we made it the whole business.
Every game is run by trained facilitators who are physically present, often in costume, keeping the energy high and making sure nobody is left standing on the sidelines. It is the human part of what we do, and it does not scale down into a screen.

Event partners
Independent, and well connected.
The Escape Artist is its own company. Over the years we have run games alongside a few other Singapore entertainment brands, and we still call on them as event partners when a job needs a physical room, a VR arcade or a different kind of venue.
