The second is more about the atmosphere than the game. Strike is the latter. Of course, you're paying a bit of a premium for that atmosphere. It's a fun, vibrant place to punish those funny looking bits of wood at the end of the lanes. And if you want to punish your ears, there's also Karaoke. As I mentioned, it can be a bit on the pricey side, but there are sometimes special deals on offer that make it a much more attractive option for the tight of wallet. For example, there are often school holiday deals that make it cheaper for the under 18s to bowl. There's also a family special where two adults and two kids can get a game up until 6pm for $40, which isn't a bad deal, really. There's also a cocktail bar, and some pool tables, so there's stuff to do if you're not into bowling.

A really quick summary of the basic premise: Trying to find the elusive and powerful Philosopher's Stone On a scale of 1-5, how much would I recommend this room: 3.5 (5 being an absolute need to tell everyone!) On a scale of 1-5, how memorable was this room: 3.5 (5 being I will remember it forever till I die!)

ESCAPETHEROOMers first escape room scheduled in Melbourne, Australia is "Alchemy" at TRAPT Bar &…read moreEscape Rooms. The title explains itself as it is a fully functional bar/ lounge w/ five rooms to choose from. The minute that you venture down the stairs and enter a dimly lit corridor, you are transported back in time to a sophisticated and relaxed speakeasy bar. The spacious bar/ lounge area is also the waiting area for the escape rooms. The room that we booked - "Alchemy", introduces you to a world of wizardry and magic (similar to the Harry Potter books). The room had a few unique challenges w/ minimal technology incorporated. The decor and the puzzles presented fit the theme of the storyline. Since we only had 50 minutes to escape this room, we felt the pressure immediately which we used to our advantage. After successfully escaping, we met w/ the manager who's super helpful and nice and was fortunate enough to receive a tour of all the other rooms as well. Their rooms are very story-driven which we appreciate and would definitely like to try the other ones in the near future. *For more info, check out my Yelp profile.

So if you've got a couple hours to spare, and you're in St. Kilda anyway, do yourself a favor and step inside -- your kids will beam with joy. We were in all parts of Melbourne and Victoria, and maybe I'm biased because the kids had so much fun, but Luna is one of the top things we did while in Victoria.

Yeah, this place really does have some history, and the rollar coaster is literally heritage listed (and still operational, in normal times that is). It's definitely worth checking out, unless you aren't an amusement park type of person that is.

Maybe it's all the brain shaking that goes on here but these were seriously the happiest staff and most helpful staff I've ever come across. You truly learn to appreciate The Big Ass Fans as you bouncing around. Near silent but providing such welcome cool relief. There's 5/6 areas to explore including a dodgeball arena, basketball hoops, The wall and my personal favourite the track work and huge air bag. That's for your pleasure when your doing flips and stuff. A word of warning. You'll have a lot of fun here. Don't spoil your fun with incorrect clothing. Try avoid any stuff materials like denim (jeans) or super floaty yoga style tops. A basic close fitting tee and shorts or cropped leggings work well.

And by an hour, I mean we didn't get started until 5 past, and most of us were well and truly done by 10 mins to the hour. Jumping up and down is tiring man! (Come on, we were all aged from 26 to 36, the kids out there didn't break a single sweat!) They've got multiple styles of trampoline, from regular mats, to ones on the wall, ones with bends, a few to jump off the end into a giant pit thing (like my use of technical terms there?), some you can jump up onto actual wooden walls, a slam dunk area, and even a dodgeball section. For the real experts you can strap on a foam board, not dissimilar to a snowboard or wakeboard, and practice your jumps. It's $16 for an hour, or get together 10 of you and it drops to $13. Or get 9 of you and pay for 10 and still works out cheaper. The loss of 1 star is for the toilets. They were filthy, and stunk. And being a place with children, Unflushed every time I went. Im going to start doing something fun every week, and shall call it #wearekidswednesday so any ideas greatly appreciated! Fun Fact - you can pay $5 for a wrist band that you swipe before some of the areas, and it films you for 15 seconds, and then you can go and download / share you looking like a grown ass idiot with your friends!

This is actually…read morethe 6th escape room experience I have had and wow I was impressed with Escape Hunt Melbourne. Don't worry - I won't spoil any of the mystery of the actual rooms in this review. When we arrived the incredibly friendly staff sat us down on some comfy couches (complete with brain twisting puzzles to solve and a nice cup of tea) to explain the rules and how the games work. Essentially you and your team mates are sent into a "locked" (obviously you can still get out) room with a set of brain training challenges to solve. As a great problem solver and lateral thinker I was really excited to see how challenging this would be. The room we were given was the "brewery mystery". As the story goes the grand brew master has been murdered and his great beer recipe has disappeared with his death... or has it? You and your team need to solve puzzles, find clues and work together to find a way of getting out again. Our team was amazing and worked together very well. While one person was helping to solve one puzzle everyone else looked around to help solve the next. We worked so well together we raced through the room and beat our competition who was playing in the room next to us. Afterwards you get to dress up like a old fashioned Sherlock Holmes detective (complete with cape and pipe) and get a photo from their photo booth! While the rooms were not the most challenging puzzles I have ever done, the theme was cool and there was a lot of attention to detail to make the experience exciting. I will definitely be going back with some friends to try another room!

Our group of 6 tried out the Graveyard themed room and boy it was thrilling. I won't give away details but I was nervous, and it was challenging...thank goodness for others in my group being able to solve interesting puzzles and navigating. There are other themed rooms and at the end you can play dress-up in detective uniforms and there is a photo booth. For those who are worried on getting stuck, don't fret you can ask for hints and there are nice teas and cookies for you to calm down with before and after the game. Will be back to try the other rooms!
