More than an escape room, Prison Island arrives in London this 9 September with a thrilling mix of strategy, skill and agility
Adrenaline, teamwork, and a wealth of exciting challenges: Prison Island is set to make its mark on London for the first time. From 9 September, this interactive adventure will open its doors, offering a completely new leisure concept to Holloway Road, in North London. With over 30 unique "cells," visitors can expect an action-packed blend of games, sports, and skill-based tests as they collaborate to solve challenges and earn their freedom. Prison Island London is brought to life by MAKE IT NOW, a French company with extensive experience in the leisure industry and co-produced by Fever, the world’s leading platform for live entertainment.
Prison Island goes a step beyond the traditional escape room concept, it’s a diverse series of games, requiring the use of strategy, skill, and agility. Teams of two to five players have 90 minutes to score as many points as possible – ranging from logical thinking and dexterity to physical tasks. With each "cell" they enter, teams are faced with a different cognitive or physical challenge to solve under time pressure, keeping players constantly on their toes, thinking quickly and focused on the task at hand.More than just an escape room, Prison Island reinvents the concept by blending the best of escape challenges with the thrill of an action game, dynamic, immersive, and truly unforgettable.
London is known for its diverse entertainment and cultural scene – but Prison Island is raising the bar, bringing a leisure concept like no other to the city. Whether with friends, family, or colleagues, the experience offers an element of challenge for everyone. Unlike traditional escape rooms, where players must break out of a single room, here they can choose from over 30 different cells, which can be approached in any order and attempted as many times as desired.
Each cell presents a unique, themed task – from dexterity-based games and tricky brainteasers to athletic challenges. Some require lightning-fast reflexes and strategic thinking, while others test memory, coordination, collaborative problem-solving and team communication.
Whether dodging laser beams, solving color-coded puzzles, or operating complex mechanisms, every challenge is an experience that demands participants act skillfully and think creatively. With the clock ticking, there’s no time thoughts of life on the outside, offering a fun, 90-minute escape from reality.
Thanks to cutting-edge technology and innovative game design, every visit feels fresh and exciting. The diverse cells are designed to offer multiple solutions, keeping the experience engaging even for returning visitors. With a wide range of difficulty levels and challenges, the game is suitable for both beginners and experienced players alike.
The concept originated in Scandinavia and has already captivated audiences in the largest cities in the world. Now, Prison Island is finally arriving in London, offering an exciting experience for friends, families, corporate events, and team-building activities. Mikael Bouteillon, responsible for Prison Island London explains, “Our mission is to bring people together through play and create an unforgettable experience. The various cells provide a dynamic and versatile experience that blends action, logic, and teamwork.”
