New place for escape fans, near melb uni so easy to access. Lost was the most unique escape experience I've ever had. Did the Alcatraz and Egyptian themed rooms. Would come back for the last one. Easy recommendation.

Description:

"We're all in this together. We'll get through this and we won't leave anyone behind and that's a promise."

The Alcatraz Island is home to an abandoned prison, famous for housing the most dangerous felons during its operation period. Due to its cold and hazardous climate, no inmate was thought to have ever successfully escaped the highly secured facility.

One morning, the wardens discovered the disappearance of 3 inmates. Did the inmates make it out of Alcatraz Island braving the unforgiving currents or did they perish into the dark waters of San Francisco Bay?

Reviews of escape game "Alcatraz"

I have done Exodus and Alcatraz here. Apparently Alcatraz was the hardest room they have it requires minimum of 3 people. I found Lost australia rooms are lot different to other escape room providers because Lost Australia rooms are technologically advanced. They do use things like RFID whenever possible. Also not everything you have to do in the room is a puzzle. Certain activities will push you into a laughing fit. Exodus room was really big and had amazing use of technology. I personally found it harder than the Alcatraz. Exodus was about the story of Moses. You do not need to have any knowledge about the history but you will learn the whole story there. Remember to be very observant!

Alcatraz was about the classic Alcatraz prison escape where we have to escape the prison before the guards catch us. We loved every bit of the experience. Will return to do the other rooms.

My friends and I randomly stumbled upon this place after having dinner just around the corner on Lygon Street. The 3 of us have completed many escape rooms before and decided on Alcatraz, a classic prison break themed room that many escape rooms seem to favour.

However, LOST's Alcatraz was unexpectedly different.The puzzles were challenging but fun and it was evident a lot of thought and effort was put into creating puzzles at such a magnificent level.

I can definitely see where the global success behind LOST comes from. They do what ever escape room does but better. The technology adds that extra needed magic and thrill into completing escape rooms, it makes the entire experience much more rich and realistic.

I'm very excited to see what else LOST will bring forth to Melbourne! I will definitely be back!
