Présentation du projet

Ville, Pays
North Lakes, Queensland, Australia, north of Brisbane. Red Lock now runs four venues: North Lakes, Maroochydore, Coomera and Chermside.
Type de client
A family-owned escape room company that designs and builds most of its puzzles itself, to keep costs down and the games fresh.
Objectif du projet
The owners wanted a more immersive game without building a whole room from scratch. They wanted:
  • a set of puzzles from our Magic School room.
  • small changes to fit their own game flow.
  • quality their players would notice at once.

Conditions de mise en œuvre
  • Production: about 60 working days.
  • Changes: some props adjusted to the client’s game flow.
  • Installation: by the client’s own team, with our technical support.
Restrictions d'âge
Red Lock plays most of its rooms from age 10; The Wizard’s Apprentice works well for families with children.
Capacité
2-6 players, 60 minutes of play.
Zone
A puzzle upgrade fits into the client’s existing room; a full Magic School room needs about 30-50 m².
Notes
Red Lock North Lakes holds 4.9 on Google (373 reviews) and 4.9 on Tripadvisor, read November 2026.
Buy Only What You Need
Not every client needs a whole room. Single puzzles and sets of puzzles from our rooms let a venue upgrade its own game and keep its story.
Durée de récupération prévue
Estimated 12-18 months for a full room; a puzzle upgrade costs much less. Example: at Red Lock a team of 4 pays AUD 45 per person, AUD 180 a game. At 8 games a week that is about AUD 1,400 a week in ticket sales, before rent, staff and other costs.
Fourchette d'investissement
About €10,000-€15,000 for a set of puzzles like this one, production only; single electronic puzzles cost €1,000-€5,000 each and are priced one by one. A full Magic School room is €55,460 at the 2026 list price. Delivery comes on top.

De l'idée à la réalisation

The Red Lock project shows how a venue that builds its own games can upgrade one room with our puzzles.
01 · CHOISIR

A Set of Magic Puzzles

The owners had followed our work for some time and chose:
  • a set of puzzles from our Magic School room.
  • small changes to the props for their own game flow.
  • their biggest purchase for the venue so far.
The sales process and communication were very easy, in their words.
02 · UNPACK

Wow at First Sight

When the shipment arrived, the reaction was immediate:
  • packaging done very well.
  • “The quality of the props is amazing.”
  • “I could never make this myself.”
Detail and artistry they could see close up.
03 · PLAY

The Wizard’s Apprentice

The puzzles now run in their wizard room at North Lakes:
  • players praise its unique, on-theme puzzles.
  • families and first-time players love it.
  • 4.9 on Google for the venue.
Red Lock has since grown to four venues.

The owner, Red Lock Escape Rooms
North Lakes, Queensland, Australia. His whole review for Indestroom, in his own words:
Who we are

“We are a small independent escape room based in Queensland, Australia. We design and fabricate all of the puzzles for our games ourselves, trying to keep costs down but giving our customers a fantastic game experience.”

The owner of Red Lock Escape Rooms, in his review for Indestroom

Why Indestroom

“But we wanted to offer a much more immersive experience and after closely following Indestroom for some time placed an order for some of the puzzles from the magic school game.”

The order

“This was our most expensive purchase so far for our escape room, but the whole sales process and communication was very easy.”

The owner of Red Lock Escape Rooms, in his review for Indestroom

First words

The owner of Red Lock Escape Rooms, in his review for Indestroom

“Very fast responses to all questions with the team happy to make some minor changes to the props for our game flow. The technical support was also very good and fast to respond to a couple of issues I had.”

The owner of Red Lock Escape Rooms, in his review for Indestroom

Next time
