Frequently asked questions

It is a live escape game: your team enters a themed room and has 60 minutes to solve the puzzles that let you complete the mission. No previous experience or physical fitness is needed — you play using logic, observation, communication and teamwork. A game master follows your game from start to finish and gives you hints whenever you need them.

Rombate mode pits two teams against each other, playing at the same time in rooms with the same storyline. Both solve the same puzzles and race to finish first, with moments where one team can affect the other. It is the best option for groups of 6 or more and for company events, because everyone plays at once and then shares the experience afterwards.

At our venue on Calle Padilla 353, next to Sant Pau Hospital and ten minutes from the Sagrada Familia, we have rooms with our own original storylines plus twin rooms that make Rombate mode possible. You can see every available storyline and its difficulty on the games page.

La Fuga de Casanova is the best choice for beginners: the mechanics click quickly and the difficulty builds gradually. Tras el Espejo is designed for players who have done escape rooms before and want more of a challenge. Each game page shows its difficulty out of 10 and the recommended number of players.

Yes. Every storyline is designed in-house by The Rombo Code and cannot be played at any escape room outside the brand.

Rooms take 2 to 6 players. Four is usually the sweet spot: there are enough puzzles for everyone to take part without anyone standing around watching. With two people the challenge is considerably harder, which is exactly why it works so well as a plan for couples.

Yes. From 6 people onwards we recommend booking two rooms and playing in Rombate mode so nobody waits outside. For groups of 13 or more, and for company events, schools or stag and hen parties, we run several slots and rooms in parallel: get in touch and we will put together a tailored plan.

Yes, it is one of the things we do most. The room forces people to split roles, communicate under pressure and decide with incomplete information — exactly what a team-building exercise is meant to surface. We have large common areas to welcome the group and talk through the experience afterwards.

Yes. We run family and school sessions, adapting the hints to the age of the group. Minors must be accompanied by an adult. Tell us the ages when you book and we will adjust the experience.

Booking is done online on this site: pick your game, then an available day and time, and confirm. If you would rather ask questions first or need a special setup, message us on WhatsApp at +34 640 162 394.

Yes. We have a gift card that can be redeemed for any of our Barcelona rooms. It is a popular birthday and Christmas present, and whoever receives it chooses the game and date afterwards.

Yes, by contacting us far enough in advance via WhatsApp, phone or email. The earlier you let us know, the easier it is to move your game to another slot.

The game itself lasts 60 minutes, but allow around 90 in total: welcome and rules before you go in, and time afterwards in the common areas to talk through the game and take your team photo.

We recommend arriving 10 to 15 minutes before your booked time. Games start on schedule because another group may be booked right after you, so arriving late cuts into your playing time.

We are at Calle Padilla 353, 08025 Barcelona, next to the Sant Pau Modernist Site and about ten minutes' walk from the Sagrada Familia. The area is well served by metro and bus.

No. There are no physical challenges and no actors jumping out at you. Our rooms are solved by thinking, looking closely and talking to each other. They are suitable for anyone, with or without experience.
