About this venue
Immersive Escapes Breda revolves around one large, story-driven room — 'Het Borgesius Mysterie' — in the actual basement of the old Borgesius College, over 150 m² with a playtime of 90 minutes. You play students who are kept behind after school: the strict teacher Mrs. Van Helmond feels spied upon in the old school building and sends you to investigate, after which it gradually shifts from escape to survival. The room was designed by former teacher and playwright Remco Stadhouders and stands out for multiple surprising plot twists via videos, multimedia and old documents, plus a cozy bar before and after. Ratings are high (Google 4.9; escapetalk reviews up to 10/10), with the long format and narrative ambition praised; criticism concerns the price (around €175 per group) and puzzles that sometimes flow less smoothly than the story.
