The LEGO Batman Movie Escape Room experience at ION Orchard begins today and we manage to check it out!
The basic concept of an escape room is that you are ‘trapped’ in an enclosed space and need to solve some puzzles in order to get out
within a time limit.
This one is geared towards the kids and the ‘puzzles’ are essentially LEGO building activities that you need to complete in the allotted time.
The first one requires you to build a Bat-logo on a baseplate which already has a white stencil for the kids to follow.
The brick tubs are filled with multi coloured bricks and although I think it would be possible to create a completely black Bat-logo, just not within the time limit hence the colour uncoordinated one you see above.
After you complete that, you advance into the next room which requires you to build a ‘wall’ around the Joker to ‘stop’ him from escaping. This one definitely needs at least one more partner to complete as there is not enough time to do it by oneself.
Once the Joker is safely ‘contained’, you are ushered out of the room to have your photo taken against a backdrop of Batman capturing the Joker. There are a couple of Batman / Robin capes for your kids (or yourself) to wear.
Each session lasts approximately 20 minutes and the slots are are available every hour on the hour.
There is a sales section right at the exit of the escape room where every SGD$88 spent will net you one highly south after LEGO Bat-Signal polybag.
If you spend SGD$40 you are not entitled to the LEGO Batman polybag but there is a lucky dip which gives you a chance to win 1 of 6 other polybags which include Ninjago, Friends, City.
This offer is open to all LEGO sets so you are not restricted to buying just the LEGO Batman Movie sets to qualify.
I would suggest the new LEGO Chess (40174) set that retails at SGD$99.90 (or any other set whose Recommended Retail Price is $99.90) and is SGD$89.90 after the member discount which is just slightly over the $88 needed to get yourself a Bat-Signal polybag.
There are also LEGO play areas for the kids and a lenticular LEGO mosaic painting of Batman and the Joker hanging off the wall for angled photo opportunities.
