Regardless of your age, you’re probably somewhat familiar with The Crystal Maze – the classic TV game show. It saw “teams of players explore 4 themed Zones, collecting crystals by completing 1 player, 2-3 minute, physical, skill, mental or mystery games.” But did you know you can jump right into the show and give it a go?!
The Crystal Maze Live Experience takes the beloved show and faithfully recreates it for anyone to enjoy. If you’ve ever watched the show and thought ‘I could have done that’ or ‘I wish I could try that’ – this is your chance!
The Crystal Maze Live Experience
In teams of up to eight, your task is to complete challenges and collect as many crystals as possible. Clambering, sliding, and running through four zones (Aztec, Medieval, Futuristic, and Industrial), you’ll take on games of skill, physical and mental challenges – and the odd mystery. In pursuit of those all-important crystals, you’ll be solving puzzles, shooting crossbows, cracking codes and more!
Within the maze are experiences and challenges with names like ‘Meteor Shootout’, ‘Alien Operation’, ‘Scales of Truth’ and even the foreboding ‘Spikes of Death’. Oh, and each challenge comes with a strict time limit to make it as stressful challenging fun as possible. Plus, only one team member can attempt each challenge.
Just as you’d expect, teammates can assist and offer advice through portals into each game. Alternatively, they might all scream mutually contradictory things at you, until you melt into a puddle of tears – hey, it happens…
Basically, it’s an absolute hoot. If you’ve got a big birthday, work party, hen or stag do in the offing – or just really want to show off to your mates how good you are at dodging lasers – you’d be mad to miss it!
What’s the deal with the crystals?
The titular crystals are an essential component of the experience. The more crystals you collect, the more time you get for the final challenge in the iconic Crystal Dome. It’s here that all your hard work could result in an incredible final performance, or vanish in a puff of smoke.
Want to know more? Well, there’s no fun in us spoiling the whole experience! You’ll have to book in to try it out for yourself. The experience is available for anyone over the age of 9. But if your team has any under-16s, there will need to be at least one supervising adult team member. If you’re over 16, though, there are no parents required!
