Let\u2019s have a quick summary, how it all started with us, please stay for the next few paragraphs. Also pay attention, because we might have a question to you in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In July 2012<\/strong>&nbsp;came the idea to our mind, why not bring escape games to Switzerland as there is no other yet in the country and not widespread in Europe either. Soon after that, during the coming autumn we started with the kick-off of the project focusing on the website, riddle developments, and searching for the proper location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have found our first location in&nbsp;<strong>Z\u00fcrich, Oerlikon in February, 2013<\/strong>. Right after that we started with the contructions for 2 games: Cinemania and Tik-Tak. Testgames began in Juni and grand opening took place in July. At that time we are still the one out of 2 escape games provider in Switzerland \u2013 the only one in Central- and East Switzerland. In Autumn, 2013 we got the first place on Tripadvisor beyond sightseeing offers in Z\u00fcrich already 6 weeks after the grand opening. Numerous media reported about us during these times, e.g.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.newlyswissed.com\/every-second-counts-at-the-live-escape-game-in-zurich\/\">newlyswissed<\/a>, Teletop TV-channel, Radio1 channel, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong>2014<\/strong> we have changed the location and designed two more escape rooms (total of 4 rooms were already available), still in Oerlikon on 280 sqm. 1 Million Case and Steps are still in the supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In 2015 we have expanded the games to the Baltics<\/strong>, two more locations were opened in Riga and Vilnius with 8 rooms and with more than 500 sqm. We designed a new escape room in Z\u00fcrich as well, Garage \u2013 which is also still available. For more information, click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/liveescapegame.com\/en\/games\/garage\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The year of 2016<\/strong>&nbsp;was almost as exciting as the foundation.&nbsp;<strong>We have relocated our rooms in Z\u00fcrich Binz<\/strong>, R\u00e4ffelstrasse with more than 310 sqm \u2013 which means that we have still the biggest escape room venue in Z\u00fcrich. All games for newly rebuilt, redesigned, developed. In the same year we have opened our next venue in Bern with 3 games on 300 sqm. Steps, Garage and 1 Million Case were those, which we brought there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a short rest in 2017, we designed&nbsp;<strong>a new game in Z\u00fcrich in 2018<\/strong>, Prison, which you can more read about&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/liveescapegame.com\/en\/games\/prison\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2019<\/strong>&nbsp;gave us another game also designed in Z\u00fcrich, Ravens of London \u2013 click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/liveescapegame.com\/en\/games\/raven\">HERE&nbsp;<\/a>to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, unfortunately 2020 was influenced mostly by COVID-19 for all of us, we were not idle \u2013 preparations are always hard for a new location with completely different riddles and design. But we managed to stay at the top and made big progress with&nbsp;<strong>Tropenhaus Frutigen<\/strong>&nbsp;for our newest games \u2013 The lost temple (<a href=\"https:\/\/liveescapegame.com\/en\/games\/temple\">INFO<\/a>) and The stolen power of God (<a href=\"https:\/\/liveescapegame.com\/en\/games\/stolen\">INFO<\/a>), which were opened in April, 2021 with high interest of customers and big success. And we do not stop here \u2013 we are still doing our best to provide the greatest escape game service for our customers \u2013&nbsp;<strong>Prison and 1MCase are completely renovated and updated already in Z\u00fcrich<\/strong>.<\/p>",
