📖 THE STORY

You enter "The Dome" to take part in some scientific experiments, however once inside things begin to go wrong. The criminal cyborg, Hector, has escaped and releases an extremely high dose of Sodium Cyclamate. Unfortunately, the drug causes severe hallucinations which interferes with your trials. Can you find the line between reality and illusion? Can you escape "The Dome"?

🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

• Mama Bazooka has a fantastic waiting area with multiple table games, ping pong, and computer games to play… plus a stacked refreshments area with drinks and chocolates. I also helped myself to a cool ‘The Dome’ t-shirt!

• The Dome smashes the boundaries of what we thought was possible to experience in an escape room. You will certainly believe you are hallucinating at times whilst the world is changing around you. No expense seems to have been sparred in creating one of the most memorable and immersive games in the world.

• The game is possible with less than four, but discouraged, and with good reason. The puzzles are quite expansive and require good teamwork to complete. This is certainly a case of the more brains the better. We played as a three and I would have definitely appreciated at least one person more.

• After the game concludes you are welcomed into a private screening room where your GM will sit with you and revisit the best moments of your game, as captured by their cameras. This is a fantastic idea and something we hadn’t seen anywhere else; it was definitely appreciated!

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

• The game starts off with, in our opinion, two of the hardest of all the puzzles inside. It took us longer to complete than we would have liked, resulting in us feeling stressed for the remainder of the game, trying to catchup time for a successful escape.
  

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Teams wanting to witness something truly special should not miss this game. But ensure you are prepared with a strong team and at least four people, should escaping in time be important to you. This is a high adrenaline, high stress, high reward experience.
