Wake Up (with kids)
How Kids-Friendly is Wake Up?
What makes it 75% Kids-Friendly: Junior modes allow children 8-12 to play safely with adults, staff tune puzzles, but dark effects may scare some and there is no room for strollers or passive younger siblings.
Positives:
- Kid-friendly modes: Junior mode adjusts puzzle difficulty for ages 8–12.
- Indoor activity: Climate-controlled rooms make it a good rain-or-shine option.
Challenges:
- Age minimum: All players must be 8+ (with an adult) to join.
- Active participation: Rooms require searching, reaching, and teamwork, which can tire younger kids.
What is Wake Up?
- An escape game venue on Rue Delandine in Lyon’s Presqu’île, specializing in live, puzzle-driven missions.
- A facility hosting multiple one-hour themed rooms—from thriller and jungle adventure to casino heist and tech-driven scenarios—catering to teams of two to seven players.
- A professionally outfitted gaming center with immersive sets, timed challenges, and tiered pricing based on session times and group size.
What is so special about Wake Up for with kids?
- Junior modes make puzzles age-appropriate for 8–12-year-olds
- Three themes: jungle adventure, casino heist, and tech-driven mission
- 60-minute games plus briefing/debrief fit children’s attention spans
- Indoor, climate-controlled venue works year-round
- Off-peak times bring cost savings and quieter sessions
Recommended visit duration: 1-2 hours
Why 1-2 hours visit duration is ideal for with kids: Includes briefing, a 60-minute game, and debriefing—short enough to hold kids’ attention.
