About Questomatica Escape Experiences

Industry: Entertainment Providers

Company size: 2-10 employees

Once upon a time the small team of quirky artists-scientists-gamers came together to create real-life escape room experiences in Amsterdam. They mixed the technology with the gaming to get a real immersion where the game objects are real, tasks challenging and players must not only escape from a locked room, but lose themselves in the quest. The mixture was named Questomatica, where ‘Quest’ is an adventure, and ‘Automatic’, because this adventure is filled with a wide range of sensors to make you feel like you are inside a video game or a movie. With over 10 years of experience in teambuilding, the team of Questomatica opened two completely different and automated escape experiences in Amsterdam to bring this type of activity to a new level. WakeUp! escape room is all about magic, surprises and adrenaline and you will find yourself in a dream going back to your childhood fun. Carefully designed setting, light and sound effects create a truly immersive atmosphere providing a fun experience that will be difficult to forget. Arcade Invasion is the latest and completely mind-blowing creation of Questomatica opened in 2016. It took the creators over 15 month of construction to design the only space in Amsterdam where teams can step into the world of 20th century arcade games and defeat the galaxy’s worst mischief-makers alongside their favorite videogame characters. Moment-to-moment our rooms surprise gamers and challenge the limits of their creativity and imagination. These quest experiences are more than locks and puzzles – these are the immersive experiences that leave reality far behind and make all the team work together to reach or …not to reach the victory! Put down your phone and game consoles, do something unexpected, and bring your team on an unforgettable adventure.
