The Suspect - Deurne

Deurne (Antwerp) โ˜… 9,5 (escapetalk 9.5) 1 room

About this venue

Note: this location is actually in Deurne near Antwerp (Belgium), not Deurne, Noord-Brabant โ€” escapetalk lists it under 'Deurne (Belgium).' The Suspect - Deurne is the 'training center' of the The Suspect brand: a high-tech experience of 100+ minutes for large groups of 5 to 12 players, at โ‚ฌ28 per person at Boekenberglei 270. You are a recruit in an undercover training mission, but one of your own teammates is secretly the traitor โ€” the concept is explicitly inspired by The Mole and The Traitors. The signature mechanic is that traitor: cooperate and constant suspicion about who is sabotaging you, with the whole group staying together without splitting up. Reviewers give 9.5 on escapetalk and praise the energetic, nerve-wracking atmosphere; the only real criticism point is stingy hint-giving, where teams sometimes stood still for 20 minutes.

From the reviews

This results in a hilarious game in which you cannot trust anybody while you are working together.โ€” Escape Roomers
Our mole did a great job and most of us put the blame into an innocent player.โ€” Escape Roomers
