Although nobody knows his real name or face, his clientele – leading politicians, CEOs, and the criminal elite – greatly value his skill and discretion.

The ending of the story is in your own hands!

“Crime Runners is the beginning of a new era of ‘Escape Room’-games

The opposition has assigned you to investigate the circumstances surrounding his disappearance and uncover his dark deeds in order to finally end his career.

The Operator instructs you to visit Dickson’s mansion in a wealthy district of Vienna and break into his private office. Uncover his corrupt dealings and put a stop to his illegal activities.

Escape Room 2 – Branch Schottentor

Well, perhaps your last mission didn’t go quite according to plan, however, the operator is satisfied with your accomplishment, and your next mission is waiting for you:

Using his connections, the Operator has planted you in a crime scene unit searching for evidence relating to a recent murder case. Who is the victim? Where is the murder weapon? And – most importantly – who is the murderer? Perhaps this ordinary alleyway hides secrets even darker than murder?

To make matters worse, a powerful thunderstorm is approaching the city! When the storm hits, all the evidence will be washed away and the trail will go cold. If the weather service predictions are correct, you’ve only got one hour to solve the case and get to shelter. The clock is ticking!

TEAMBUILDING & ASSESSMENT CENTER

Teambuilding with Escape Games

For classic teambuilding experiences or creative assessment tasks: As a new generation of Escape Rooms, Crime Runners is a perfect way to give your staff members an extraordinary experience while strengthening the bonds of your team or department.

Players must work together in order to solve the puzzles and overcome the challenges that lie in store!

The atmosphere of an escape room creates an artificial pressure for team assessment. Who will take the lead? Who will master the tasks that are given to them? Who stays cool when the heat is on? You’ll discover strengths and talents in your staff members that you’ve never seen before – not through uniform reporting sheets but via enjoyable & exciting practical tasks.

About us

We – Stefan, Steffen, and Lukas – are a team of enthusiastic Escape Room players. We have always had the feeling that something was missing in the concept of Escape Rooms and that the experience could be made even more exciting and intense. At Crime Runners, we attempt to fill this gap with narrative, immersive special effects, and challenging puzzles.

We look forward to your feedback on Crime Runners.
