Beginner family escape room in Hongdae, Seoul: Cube Escape
Cube Escape Hongdae Branch is an escape room café on the 4th floor of the Mugwang Building in Mapo, Seoul. Three first-time players — the writer, her mom and her younger sister — booked the 12:55 slot and chose Hansel and Gretel, a fantasy fairytale theme with zero horror, using hints along the way to escape with 10 minutes left on the clock. For escape room beginners and families who want to skip scary themes, Hansel and Gretel at Cube Escape Hongdae Branch is an easy, comfortable first room.
