Our Story
Live Escape Room in Berlin
When did this game concept arrive in Berlin? Using the history of House of Tales, we try to give you a brief overview.
How it all began
In 2014 the leisure trend of room escape games reached Berlin. As one of the pioneering escape rooms in the capital, we welcomed our first guest on 14 June 2014. Back then in Kreuzberg and today in Berlin Mitte at Checkpoint Charlie, we have infected over 92,606 players with the escape room fever.
Here & Now
2017 brought the great awakening: House of Tales and the idea of a 2nd generation escape room was born. We opened the doors of Berlin's most fascinating escape room in May of the same year. We are proud to have taken a new path with House of Tales. Our escape room doesn't belong in a dark cellar, but in the centre of a vibrant city.
Escape Room – One Term Among Many
Escape Room is one of many terms that have become established in Germany.
They all describe the same game concept: free yourself within 60 minutes with your team from a puzzle room by finding clues and solving logical tasks.
