There was something tragic and unexplained about that misty summer's day in the early 20th century. Where had Tahlo's farmer disappeared to? Creeping noises and drowned history still haunt the mystical old buildings of space.
Are you ready to explore the mysteries of Tahlo Farm's 400-year-old history? Tahlo Ventures, in cooperation with the escape room professionals at Getaway Room Escape, offers a new type of unforgettable escape game in an authentic country setting. The farm museum was opened in summer 2021.The escape game Usvaan unohdettu - Forgotten in the Mist combines a real story, offers excitement, clever puzzles and surprises through a self-contained gaming experience. An adventure lived with technology makes the heart beat faster in the farm's history exhibition.
At Tahlo, you can play safely with a friend or in a group! Due to the autonomy and environment of the game, the recommended age for players is 15, under the responsibility of a guardian, even the youngest can participate. Outside temperatures prevail in the game rooms. In winter, players should dress very warmly - find out more about winter play below! Escape room will be available in English from June 2024.
The recommended group size is 2 to 4 players, in a challenge game, a total of 4 to 8 players.
The game lasts around 2 hours.
CHALLENGE GAME FOR GROUPS
Do you dare to challenge your team? If your group size is greater than 6 OR if you are experienced players and your group consists of at least 4 people, we recommend a challenge game. In the challenge game, your group is divided into two teams and you compete in Tahlo's museum environment not only against the clock, but also against each other.
The game is the same for both teams and is played in the same buildings. When the group size exceeds 10 players, we recommend that you contact us so that we can plan the game solution best suited to your group.
