About the escape room

Welcome to the legendary Dolphin Hotel in New York. You are a group of skeptics who have refuted stories about paranormal phenomena and you have heard about the incidents in room 1408 but you don’t believe in such myths about ghosts or demons. So far there has always been a logical explanation for everything because you have already solved many ghost stories and are professionals in this field.

The alleged phenomenon that all 56 guests who have checked into this room since 1910 died after 60 minutes at the latest has piqued your interest.

This is the perfect case for you! You want to destroy this rumor too. You also simply reject the hotel manager’s attempts to prevent you from entering the room. But this time it’s different… not just a horror story… You check in, the door is locked behind you and you sense that there is something inexplicable in this room besides you… You have one hour to save your own skin and find your way out, otherwise your names will be added to the list of victims of room 1408…

AI Overview

AIGuests consistently praise the cohesive set design, the logically built puzzle structure, and the very friendly, competent game mastering. The scare is tangible but not overdone; there are brief jump scares. Technically, the room runs smoothly with no finicky mechanics. Difficulty is described as medium to tough and more challenging for pairs.
WeaknessesCriticism is rare; the main point is the challenge for small teams or beginners. Not for people who dislike any horror. Endgame time pressure can feel intense.
StrengthsLovingly crafted sets with film nods and nice effects. Puzzles are varied, logically linked, and doable within time. Top on-site hosting; hints are targeted and helpful.
SecurityShort, clear briefing; the team seems seasoned. Multiple mentions that everything worked mechanically cleanly, with no hiccups.
Level of fearSpooky atmosphere with a few brief jump scares, overall a moderate scare factor. Not ideal for sensitive kids; fine for teens and adults with steady nerves.
Actors' gameNo live acting reported; interaction runs via attentive game masters in the background. The team is described as very friendly, helpful, and competent.
Quality of riddlesPuzzles feel fair, logical, and well tiered, with some genuinely tricky ones. Lots of variety over repetition; solutions are understandable. When needed, hints are precise without breaking the flow.
PlotYou check in as skeptical ghost hunters to the fabled Room 1408 and quickly realize something is indeed lurking here. One hour to unravel the truth and get out alive — the tension ramps up noticeably, without spoilers.
Difficulty levelLeans medium to hard, ideal for experienced teams. Doable with two but tough; pleasantly balanced with three to five.

We came especially from Rosenheim and the two of us played room 1408—challenging but doable. Great puzzle ideas, terrific design, and extremely friendly game masters. Among our top 3 of the 16 rooms we've played since January.

Successful company outing: Room 1408 was well-structured, no tech hiccups, top-notch suspense. For us, the best room in Vienna so far.

Room 1408 is not for the faint of heart — and that’s exactly what we liked. SAW is next on our list.
