We did 5 rooms at the two different venues: Time Fighters (1 of the main puzzles was broken), Chernobyl (best of the rooms we did & quite good), invisible forest, Lost 2 & the Real Saw.
Time Fighters is a room of 2 halves & would probably have been better if the broken item worked. Not everything in there was obvious & we spent quite a bit of time wandering around trying to figure out what to do next.
Chernobyl was good- immersive set & very professional compared to the other rooms we did at this venue, cool puzzles & well put together, a very enjoyable room.
Invisible Forest. Odd. You’re in the pitch black & have an hour to escape before you die. There isn’t actually that much to do- which is good as you can’t see anything at all- except annoyingly the walkie talkie has a light on it which keeps lighting up if you use it. Because you can’t see you can’t work out what you’re trying to do, & we accidentally triggered the mechanism which gave us the key to get out only part way through the game. We then stood at the door for ages waiting for the GM to come, only to be told we’d not done a chunk of the game. You can’t tell what you haven’t done as its dark! Having lost all that time we went back in & did what we’d missed out, but then it wasn’t at all obvious how to trigger getting the key the correct way. All in all this was not a good room & had several sharp bits & dangers which weren’t great in the dark.
Lost 2 was better, atmospheric & tropical with a quirky physical puzzle to overcome. Think Aztec zone on the Crystal Maze & you’re about there.
Real Saw was only really scary by the fact you’re chained up, there were a few props which seemed cool but didn’t have any part in the game & it’s heavily reliant on just1 player (if you playas a pair) until they can set you both free. This room seemed scant of puzzles compared to some of the others.
This venue is very cheap compared to many of the other Budapest rooms & there’s a reason for that. The staff were friendly, but there are no lockable lockers for your stuff, and the rooms are bargain budget style compared to many other places.
Other than Chernobyl (& Time Fighters if they fix the broken bit) I wouldn’t overly recommend the rooms here if you can afford to do other places.

My partner and I played the chernobyl room.
On arrival this was a small basement type establishment where the game master was already waiting outside (just to note, there are 2 PaniQ-Room buildings in the same road).
There is nowhere to leave your belongings, we had to leave them on a sofa, which didnt feel very safe.
The room itself was interesting, had some good puzzles. However, our experience was ruined as half way through he burst in and told us how to complete a puzzle and where the clue was to the next without us asking for any hints/clues. It wasnt as if we had run out of time.
On completion of the room, we were unsure if it had finished as we opened the door and the man wasnt paying any attention. He was sat talking on his phone.
We felt not alot of care had gone into this room and the gamd master wasn't interested.
Which is a shame as some great ideas at PaniQ-Rooms.

The Program is currently the best performed available within Budapest.
The rooms are complicated enough to spend a really good time with friends and family.
Not boring themes of the rooms, improving continously, Operators helpful and kind, especially our Ladies, Nusi and Regi :)
They were really kind and told the background story really :)

I've visited this escape room with my friends at my birthday few days ago. I liked the idea to escape from the room which looks like exactly the room from the Saw movie first installment. Fortunately the place has two room for this theme, so we can split apart with my friends to two different team and we can compete with each other. We started the game with chains on our ankles, and when we switched on the lights our jaws has fell down. The inner scenery of the room is amazing, it has a perfect atmosphere, excellent copy of the room from the movie. Csenge and Eszter as our game masters were very kind and helpful. Fortunately we managed to get out in time and survived the room. I could recommend it to everyone, it has well organized, kind staff and very creative rooms.
Néhány szóba magyarul is.
Születésnapomon látogattam meg a helyet barátaimmal. Nagyon tetszett az ötlet, hogy egy olyan szobából szabaduljak ki amely megszólalásig a Fűrész filmből fehér csempés szobára emlékeztet. Szerencsére két teljesen ugyanígy felépített szobája van a helynek így barátaimmal két csapatra szétválva még versenyezni is tudtunk egymással. A játék kezdetekor bokalánccal a falhoz rögzítve kezdtük a játékot és mikor felkapcsoltuk a villanyt, elégedetten konstatáltuk, hogy jól választottunk. Tényleg olyan érzés volt mintha a filmbe csöppentünk volna és élő részeivé váltunk a filmnek. Csenge és Eszter a játékvezetőink nagyon kedvesek és segítőkészek voltak, szerencsére sikerült időben kiszabadulnunk és így túlélni a kalandot. Mivel születésnapom volt így ráadásul nekem ingyen volt a játék. :) Mindenkinek ajánlom a helyet, nagyon jól szervezett és kreatív szobáik vannak.

A játék, amit kipróbáltunk, egy elmegyógyintézet témájú nyomozás volt. Nagyon kreatív és szórakoztató volt – egyben kihívást is jelentett! :) Csak ajánlani tudom, a minijátékokat tényleg érdemes volt kipróbálni/megoldani.
Szeretném megköszönni Rizinek és Mozaiknak a nagyszerű házigazdáskodást, az esemény minden perce szórakoztató volt, még be- és kijelentkezés is. :)
The room we visited was an insane asylum themed investigation. It was very creative and fun - it was challening as well! :) I would recommend visiting them, the minigames were really worth trying/solving.
I would like to thank Rizi and Mozaik for the great hosting, every minute of the event was fun, even when we were checking in and out. :)

We have tried the CSI ("Helyszínelők") room. It is not an easy one, but the difficulty was very well balanced for the 5 of us. The tasks were challening, but we could solve every puzzle using logic (every solution made sense, we didn't need any try and error or brute force to get through them).
The story (murder scene) was not too complicated, but the puzzles and room design fit perfectly to it, so it had a good atmosphere.
Altough we didn't require any help in the end, our host Sandra was very kind and helpful during the intro and technical stuff. (Thanks Sandra!)
It was one of the best rooms I have tried so far, I can really recommend it to anyone!

Dear Zoltán!
The CSI one is one of our hardest room, so we are always happy to hear when somebody likes it this much!
It's a very big deal that you can solve it without any help, so be proud yourself!
We can recommend you our most difficult room, the Predator one, and hope it can make you sweat!:)
Thank you for your kind recommendation, hope to see you again soon!

I have been in a few countries in different companies and in none of them was this bad. When we first arrived the game master didn't know we booked 3 rooms and what is the schedule. We asked to play rooms in a row so that neither we or them would waste time but they have placed it one after another at the full hour which means there is no time for us to come from one location to another and to listen to the story and introduction without losing at least 10min of each game. The game master is either new or wasn't keeping track of us because she would ask us with what we need help and couldn't give us clear hints ( but that might be because of the language barrier as well since we played in English ). She also didn't notice some of her colleagues placed papers instead of items that were supposed to be used in the puzzle because they were broken. In second room video was only in hungarian. Even though video itself is not important for the game if there is option to play in English they could have at least put subtitles. We have finished first room earlier but because of the schedule decided not to finish second because there would be no time for third. Unfortunately last game was even worse. Second game master didn't speak English well enough so that we would be able to communicate with her without problem. She hasn't even greeted us, just placed us in the room and told us everything in a hurry. When we couldn't solve the puzzle she didn't know how to give a hint except to tell us to do what we were already doing. When asked for an explanation of the puzzle she didn't reply. When she gave as an answer at the end it was something we didn't even needed for the next puzzle because we already figured that out so she could have told us just to skip the puzzle for which we asked for help and she couldn't give a proper hint and tell us to move to next one. On the next puzzle when I asked for hint she repeated the same thing which we (again) new from the beginning at least 3 times instead of giving a proper hint. When we asked her to just let us out she didn't even want to show us around because she has another group to watch. If the group that books 3 games in the same day is not important I can only imagine how would they behave if we booked only one. Very unprofessional behaviour. They also asked us right away to pay for games unlike in every company I have ever been to and I have been in many and worked in one as well.
All in all very lousy approach that ruined experience to the fullest. Rooms are also old and unmaintained. Avoid this escape room because you will get out disappointed. There are much better companies in Budapest you can visit and enjoy your time there

We almost did it!😅 Our tip: Chernobyl room is quite complex to escape on time if you are only 2 people, we should have believed the notice in advance..:) But it was really just about 5 mins..:) Roli is a great support to find the next steps if you need a hint and to save you when you are about to try totally unnecessary moves xD Thank you, we recommend this place! (For 4-6 people:D)

Excellent place, i recommend it to everyone. Our helper, Rozi was very cute, kind and helpful. The Indiana Jones track is simply brilliant, imaginative, exciting and thought-provoking. We were also on the Predator track, it was much more difficult, maybe it was a little to complex. All in all the tracks pay attention to details, and it was a very fun experience.

Eszter is a great referee, overall it was a great experience. I do not recommend it when the weather is hot, cause there is no AC. The game is well builded, but the accessories are shabby, it wouldn't take much to print out another A4 paper for every game. (The task was paper folding, and it was folded many times before.)

Hello,
We are very happy that you had a great experience with us!
We would like to apology for the accessories - unfortunately our printer died on this day's morning - and as we had such a busy day - our collegue doesn't have the time to fix it, that is why you can not get the best piece of paper for the folding - we are very sorry about that, but I hope it does not made you a bad experience.
Of course we always strive to make the best experience for our costumers - so thank you for the compliment, we will pay more attention to it.
If you would like to challenge yourselves in colder rooms - we recommend our most popular room - the Saw one.
Hope to see you again soon,
Best wishes,
TEAM-PANiQ
