Hour Escape for Kids is a kids escape room in Sofia city centre, made only for children aged 9 to 13. A team of up to six plays in one of two rooms: Once Upon a Time, where the children are wizards out to save the world, or the children's version of The Trap. Parents stay outside, so you have 1 hour 15 minutes to walk around the centre or sit in a café nearby. The game is €20 per child, and a bigger group splits into two teams that play at the same time.

Two rooms made for children

In Once Upon a Time the children become wizards. The story goes that an evil wizard called Abraham stole the philosopher's stone to rule the world forever, and hid it in a small room behind an ordinary study on Alabin Street. He leaves it for just one hour a day. The team has that hour to find the way in, cast and break spells, travel through time and destroy the stone.

The Trap is the children's version of Hour Escape's classic room. The team wakes up as "hostages" in a room with no doors and no windows, and every solved puzzle brings them closer to the way out. It is for children who want something a little spooky that still suits their age: there are no actors jumping out and no blood. Kids usually sum it up as a bit scary but very cool. Both rooms are an escape room for 9 to 13 year olds, with puzzles that need sharp eyes, good ears, secret codes and teamwork.

An hour and a quarter for the grown-ups

You drop the children off at 31 Alabin Street and the team takes over. Parents do not go into the rooms, and the children relax more without adults watching. The street is in the middle of town, a few minutes from Vitosha Boulevard, with plenty of cafés around, so it is easy to fit in a coffee or a short walk while they play. It is one of the easiest things to do with kids in Sofia, and a good kids activity in Sofia in winter, when the weather keeps everyone indoors.

It also works for a school group escape room in Sofia or a class trip: with two rooms side by side, up to 12 children can play at the same time in two teams.

FAQ

How much does the kids escape room in Sofia cost?+
€20 per child for the game. Six children in one room is €120, and twelve children in two rooms is €240.
What age is it for?+
Children aged 9 to 13. The rooms are not recommended for younger children. If a younger brother or sister needs to come, tell us when you book so we can check with Hour Escape for Kids first, because unannounced younger children cannot play.
How many children can play?+
From 2 to 6 children in one room. With more than six, the group splits into two teams that play at the same time, one in each room, so up to 12 children can play at once.
Is it a good escape room for children?+
Yes. Both rooms were built for children aged 9 to 13, and the stories, puzzles and atmosphere are made for that age. Most children have never played an escape room before and manage fine.
Do parents go in with the children?+
No. Parents do not go into the rooms, and the children usually relax more without adults around. There are plenty of cafés nearby while you wait.
How long does it take?+
About 1 hour 15 minutes from drop-off to pick-up.
Is The Trap too scary for kids?+
The children's version has no actors jumping out, no blood and nothing gory. It is for children who want something a little spooky. If yours prefer magic, choose Once Upon a Time.
Can a school group or class play?+
Yes. Two rooms side by side take up to 12 children at the same time. For a bigger school group escape room in Sofia, message us and we will plan it with Hour Escape for Kids.
What language is the game in?+
English or Bulgarian. Tell us when you book.
What are the opening hours?+
Every day, by booking. Send us the time that suits you and we check what is free.
How do we pay?+
Booking through us is free and you pay at the venue on the day.
Can we change or cancel?+
Yes, you can change or cancel free of charge up to 48 hours before the game.
Do SoFun Card holders get a discount?+
