About this venue

In the actual lighthouse of Texel (De Cocksdorp) you played the escape game De saboteur van de vuurtoren after hours, designed by WaouW Outdoor Escape Games: the light has been sabotaged, ships are in danger, and you must unmask the saboteur and get the lamp working again within ninety minutes. The distinctive setup had small teams solving puzzles floor by floor in parallel, then converging for a joint finale—players cited this exact dynamic as the highlight. With an escapetalk score of 9.9 and straight tens for atmosphere and service, this was one of the best-rated games in Noord-Holland. However, the game is no longer available for regular booking (escapetalk notes "Now closed"); the problem was economics (€520 per group of 6–12, evening slots only), not quality, and the installation appears to surface occasionally for private sessions.
