Riddle Room Canberra (solo trip)
How Solo-Friendly is Riddle Room Canberra?
A solo visitor cannot book any escape room because every scenario needs at least two players, but they can reserve a single seat in Splash Lab, so the venue is only moderately suitable.
Positives:
- Creative Outlet: Splash Lab lets you make a unique art piece with no painting skills required.
- Social Opportunity: Shared sessions host up to 10 people, so it’s easy to meet others.
- Central Location: The venue sits near Canberra CBD, close to cafes and public transport.
Challenges:
- Solo Escape Rooms Need Groups: You can’t book escape rooms alone. You must join a mixed group of at least two players.
- Limited Session Times: Popular evening and weekend slots sell out quickly.

Reviews of Riddle Room Canberra (Canberra)
Dani Edwards
So much fun! We played the Dungeon room with 2 adults and an 11yo and it was fantastic for all of us. The puzzles made you think but weren't impossible (especially with a helpful hint once or twice) and we came so close to making it out before the timer. The rooms were immaculately kept and set up, our host awesome and I'm already planning another visit. Two thumbs up from these first-timers.
Blake Bambrook
Riddle Room were very accommodating of our large group size, communicated well and prepped us for the room very professionally. The room itself was heaps of fun with a great storyline, challenging puzzles and excellent artwork! We'll definitely be back

What an incredible experience! Ren was super helpful and fun and the space is beautiful. We did the Dungeon and will definitely be back to do more!
Harry Angel
Six of us aged from 7 to 87 did the Dungeon. What an amazing test of solving riddles. We went a bit over our time limit but there was no pressure to end. The rooms are very neat and tidy, the staff are great and the riddles are amazing. Thoroughly recommend this when you are wondering how to entertain the grand kids.
Joyce Zou
We did The Dungeon, with people who wanted 0 scare factor. It was a very interesting and great activity to improve linear thinking and communication!! It's a good room for beginnings and experts in escape rooms! I really enjoyed it, both the puzzles inside the room and in the waiting room! Definitely would come back to try out the other rooms!!
