Horror / Suspense · Live Actor
Face your sins. Escape the darkness. Sydney's premier horror escape room awaits. Great for horror lovers and anyone who enjoys a scare.
The Story
Recently, people have been vanishing in Yendys City. According to survivors, they were all kidnapped and held in the abandoned basement by a mysterious organisation that called itself "Cain".
Nobody who returned seems eager to explain further.
Today, you woke up and found yourself in a cell along with other strangers and a voice in the darkness keeps bringing old memories back. Bad memories. The kind that people spend their entire lives trying to bury.
Ghosts are not the problem here. What the room puts in front of you is much more real than that. It's your own mind.
Welcome to Redemption, Ice Break Escape Room's answer to those searching for the ultimate horror escape room experience.

4.9“Amazing! I participated in the redemption room and it was the right amount of scary and challenging. The storyline is fun and you learn about your character slowly through the rooms. By the end you could figure out the story by yourself. Great idea for a work Christmas party which is what we did. Great to get closer to people.”

Why This Room
Redemption is an escape room with live actors, something that doesn't just add atmosphere but changes what the room is. You'll not only be with your friends, you'll also be with someone whose motivations and presence may push the story into a completely different direction.
Redemption has the atmosphere of a haunted house in Sydney: shadows, decay, sound that sits slightly wrong. But there is also a story your group has to actually pull apart under pressure. The dread is real. So are the puzzles.
Redemption is a scary escape room, but it won't bombard you with jump scares. The room earns its horror. The room is tense, physical, and story-heavy in the right way, and though you might get a scare, it's less about the noises and more about what you uncover.

FAQs
Redemption runs for 3 to 10 players. It suits friends, couples who think a scary date night is a good idea, birthday groups, and teams who are looking to face off against both mechanical puzzles and psychological frights.
It is one of the more intense experiences in Sydney, and that gap widens considerably if you add the live actor. What separates Redemption from other scary escape room options is less about how loud it gets and more about what the story is actually doing to your group while you try to think straight.
Yes, and they make the game so much better by joining your session and responding in real time to what you do. Note: You can always ask them to adjust the intensity to your preference, but the actor is a must, since the story needs them.
Most horror rooms use design and sudden scares to do the work. Redemption uses guilt, memory, and character. Unlike other horror escape rooms in Sydney, the challenges aren't just the mechanical puzzles, but also the immersive storytelling that'll make you think twice about everything you do.
Absolutely. Redemption is a strong choice for Halloween, scare nights, and groups who want a haunted-house escape-room atmosphere without giving up the puzzle structure. No worries if it's not Halloween, though. You can get your scares any time of the year.
Avoid this one if you are pregnant, have heart issues, severe anxiety, epilepsy, or photosensitive epilepsy. That applies to anything else that darkness, intense horror, or sudden scares could aggravate. If in doubt, please contact us before booking. We'd much rather you get the right kind of scary experience, you know?
Redemption is recommended for players 15 and above, due to the intensity of the horror themes. Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
