Room Related FAQs

How many players can participate per room?

To ensure maximum comfort, safety, and excellent participation from all team members within the scenarios, our rooms are designed for a maximum capacity of 7 players per room.

What happens if our group has 8 or more people?

If your group exceeds 7 players, the most fun and recommended solution is to split into two or more themed rooms within the same time slot. This creates a fantastic friendly competition between your teams to see who completes the mission in the shortest time!

Are the rooms scary or suitable for families?

We have rooms with completely different atmospheres in Coimbra. If you are looking for adventure, magic, or classic mystery, School of Magic or Orient Express are perfect and highly immersive choices. If you prefer a good dose of adrenaline and psychological suspense, our horror rooms, such as Nightmare Hotel or The Orphanage, will test your limits. You can check the intensity level on each room's page before booking.

What is the difficulty level of the games?

Our challenges are based on logical thinking, interpretation, communication, and teamwork. You do not need any previous knowledge or physical strength. In addition, each group is monitored in real time by a dedicated Game Master who will provide small hints if you get stuck on a puzzle, ensuring the game keeps moving and remains fun throughout.

Outdoor Related FAQs

How do Game Over Coimbra outdoor games work?

They are adventures that transform the streets of Coimbra into a real-life game board! Upon arrival at our store, your team receives digital tools and a physical kit with portable technological gadgets. From there, you explore the city independently and at your own pace, interacting with local monuments and history to solve the mission against the clock.

How many people can play per outdoor team?

Our outdoor games are designed for teams of 2 to 5 players. If your group is larger, we divide participants into multiple teams competing simultaneously through the city streets, making the experience even more exciting.

How long do the outdoor experiences last?

It depends on the game you choose: Coimbra Blackout is an epic, extended challenge lasting 180 minutes (3 hours); Last Chance Coimbra lasts 120 minutes (2 hours) and The Last Pirate King lasts 60 minutes (1 hour). Comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

Events Pages FAQs

What is the maximum capacity of the Coimbra store for corporate or school events?

Our indoor space can accommodate up to 35 players simultaneously, properly distributed across our 5 game rooms (with a maximum of 7 players per scenario). For larger groups or school trips, our outdoor games perfectly complement the logistics, allowing dozens of people to play at the same time throughout the city.

Can we make a private booking to close the venue for our company?

Absolutely. We offer exclusive booking of the entire venue for your company's preferred time slot, ensuring privacy and our team's full attention. We create personalised proposals tailored to your specific needs.

Can I play a "Date Night" format if we are only 2 people?

Yes, absolutely! All our rooms and outdoor adventures are prepared to challenge and entertain teams of just 2 players. The selected room is always 100% private for the couple, with no shared space with strangers, making it an excellent idea for an original date.

Is it possible to include a surprise or personalised gift inside the room?

Yes, we love helping create special moments! Whether it is to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, or even an original marriage proposal, you can coordinate everything in advance with our Game Master. Simply make your booking online and send us an email with the instructions so we can integrate your surprise into one of the game's final puzzles.

Do teachers or school supervisors enter the rooms with students?

It is not mandatory. Our rooms are monitored in real time on camera by our Game Masters. For safety and operational reasons, customers are not allowed inside the R.E.G.I. (control room).
