About this venue
Team Trapped in Venlo currently runs one room: The Resistance. You are in 1945, with liberation approaching, a Dutch resistance fighter in a hidden underground space with a clandestine printing press; you gather and distribute crucial information before German troops arrive, with wooden walls and propaganda radio as complete period theming. Immersion begins at entry: the themed reception is described by visitors as 'a super fun addition', followed by a strong intro video. The puzzles are explicitly thematic — the creators stepped away from standard puzzles — with 'surprising twists you don't see coming' and modern technical features instead of a sea of locks. On escaperoomsnederland.nl the room scores an exceptional 9.3 out of 87 reviews ('top atmosphere, top puzzles and a top experience'); the only recurring criticism is that hints are sometimes given unsolicited.
