Escape Room Experience Taupo - The Enchanted Candy Forest

We are located in central Taupo. Get your team together and put your detective hats on to see if you can solve the clues and puzzles to escape in 60 minutes or less. LAST CLUE CHANGE: November 2025 DIFFICULTY LEVELS: Standard 4/5, Advanced 4/5 At the heart of the enchanted forest stands the Tree of Life, the source of all life and magic. For thousands of years, the Forest Guardians and Fairies have protected it, ensuring its power remained pure. But now, a great danger has befallen the land. The wicked witch from the East has stolen the tree’s glowing core and hidden it deep within her gingerbread house. Without it, the forest will fade into darkness in 1 hour. The Guardians cannot do this alone. Only together can you outwit the witch, recover the Heart, and restore the forest before time runs out. Suitability: This room (while still difficult enough for adults) is our most family-friendly theme. If you love a fun story, this is the room for you!

To us, It’s about an experience. It’s about the welcome on arrival and departure, it’s about the unexpected joys, the feel good music, finding the fairy doors, walking under an 80 year old kiwifruit vine tunnel, patting a friendly giant rabbit while you putt around it, a sudden explosion of bubbles flying overhead, the world class native garden, the light shows, tranquil and serene in parts, and swarm techno lights in others, it’s a journey of experiences. It’s about standing on large volcanic rocks and admiring the 2,000 year old Rata stump from which water cascades into the pond as smoke billows out from within. This is why it is not unusual to have repeat visits of up & over 3 times while visiting, each experience is different and people leave feeling good!

Every room that Escapism builds is built for a purpose - to showcase an interesting theme or offer unique gameplay. In Steal The Crown, you are faced with a very difficult room to complete. It's built with greater complexity but includes an extra team member available to assist you in understanding what you need to do. Just like in any good crime movie, as you begin your heist you’ll talk to your man on the outside. He has resources you don't, and he can see things you can't - so Sam is vital to completing this room in time. This is a 90-minute (1.5 hour) escape room.
