What to wear to an escape room: clothes, shoes and bags

Casual clothes and clean socks. You can take your shoes off in every room except Horror Escape, where all-white clothes are a bad idea.

Wear casual clothes you can move in. At Questrooms in Stockholm you may take off your shoes in every room except Horror Escape, so bring clean socks or indoor shoes, because barefoot is not allowed. In Horror Escape, skip all-white clothes, since you may get some dust on them. Here is what to wear to an escape room, format by format, before you pick a time in the booking calendar.

What should you wear to an escape room?

Any casual clothes work for an escape room at Questrooms. There is no escape room dress code: you move between zones, look for clues and use your hands, so choose clothes you are comfortable in. The only rule about clothing is for Horror Escape, where all-white outfits may come out a little dusty.

Do you take off your shoes in an escape room?

You can, in every room at Questrooms except Horror Escape. Taking off your escape room shoes is about safety and hygiene, and it is your choice. Bring clean indoor shoes or clean socks if you prefer them, because playing barefoot is not allowed. In Horror Escape you keep your shoes on for the whole game.

Jackets, bags and glasses

The venue at Kocksgatan 21A has a place to hang your jacket and lockers for bags, backpacks and valuables. Use the lockers, because Questrooms is not responsible for lost belongings. Your hands stay free for the puzzles. In VR, the headsets fit over most glasses. If your frames are very large, you can play without them, and the game master adjusts the lenses. The full list of games is on the classic escape rooms page.
