Hide N Seek

Some really good stuff here, despite this being one of my least favorite themes. The acting was outstanding, the puzzles were largely interesting, and it has one of the coolest beginnings of any room I've played (... caffeine for extra jitters, anyone?). The scares, however, seemed to drag on to the point of actively interrupting gameplay, which isn't a feeling I like. I love a game where actor interaction (or figuring out how to avoid them) itself becomes a puzzle, but here running and hiding really is the only name of the game, and any puzzle that repeats can get dull. An excellent cinematic also overstayed its welcome and didn't feel entirely safe in the moment. A warning: the actor WILL harm you (though mildly) if you're caught. This didnt bother me much but it was quite surprising when I was caught the first time - we're not in Spain or the Netherlands anymore folks...

Second game of my Athens trip and I must say, this one fell a bit short for me. A perfect intro, the set was above the standard for Athens, few nice puzzles with few nice cinematics. After that, the main portion of the game was just way too long and repetitive. The gameplay stalled, the scares became annoying, nothing new or interesting was introduced until the finale. I don't think this room is bad, but I wouldn't prioritize it. Also this one is loud, earplugs are recommended.

The most scary game in Athens. Without a single doubt. The set design is amazing. Michael Myers too. The only flaw in this game is the puzzles. Very few & difficult , not original. But it's ok. The rest of it is a masterpiece.

Very intense experience with a fantastic ending transition. Personally would have preferred a few more puzzles as it’s very puzzle light and some of the scares drag on but overall great experience.

Hide N Seek by Brainiac Escape Rooms was the 3rd and last room of Day 4 and the 11th game of our Athens Escape Tour 2026, played with the same team of five. This game was the peak of adrenaline for the whole day. From start to finish it felt like a non-stop rush, clearly inspired by the Halloween franchise, with strong nods to the atmosphere surrounding Michael Myers. The title says it all, constantly keeping you alert and moving. The sound effects, lighting, and environment work together beautifully to bring you deep into that film world. The story also adds its own twist to the classic Halloween concept, which works very well within the experience and helps give the game its own identity. At one point the intensity actually gave me a slight headache from the adrenaline, though in a good way, similar to the feeling after riding many roller coasters one after another. This is definitely not a game for everyone, but for players who love thrills, tension, and being genuinely scared, you are absolutely in for a treat. This one ranks within the top 3 of the tour for me.

Hide n Seek is set in a very authentic hospital setting, the kind you’d expect to find in the Netherlands. Maybe that’s exactly what makes the game so special for the Greeks, because otherwise I found it to be just average. But maybe my expectations were just different, or too high because of all the hype 🤷🏼‍♀️ The logic behind the puzzles wasn’t always clear to us, even with hints from the GM. Unfortunately, the tension dropped quickly because you figure out the concept fast and it stops being scary. For a Hide n Seek concept, there were also very few places to hide. The actors, who repeatedly perform short scenes to drive the story forward, do a really good job, though, and I especially liked the opening and the finale.

Very good, the spaces and props are so realistic and Michael Myers is true to the movie character. Didn't like the opening segment it was a bit uncomfortable, but the rest of the room is great

One of the most exhilarating rooms I have done. It had my adrenaline pumping for the majority of the experience. The ending was truly one of a kind and unlike anything I have seen before. If you love horror then this is the room for you.

I greatly appreciate the take on a Michael Myers inspired story. This became one of the standouts in Athens for story telling. An example of how to immerse guests into a story without making us read it. A very impactful finale that told us exactly how our story ended and in a very successful and showy way!

This was the scariest experience I’ve ever had! Very unpredictable at times. Visibility was hard sometimes, but seemed appropriate in some spots. This felt more like an “experience” rather than an escape room, and the puzzles were awkward at times, but still fun once we got there. The actors were amazing and I felt completely immersed the whole time. The ending is seriously 1 of a kind! Would definitely recommend!!! This room deserves its spot on TERPECA
