It's mega fun. And there's something for everyone. Action, skill, logic and competitive spirit. A good counterpart to the escape room. Definitely try it!!! I'll be back 🙌 🤩

We visited as a sports team of 15 people and our expectations were fully met. Lots of small mini games that are always played in 1vs1 duels await here. If you're looking for an alternative to bowling, escape rooms or similar, this is the right place!

We wanted to do something other than an escape room for a change and ended up at Gamer. Cool idea! Self-explanatory, entertaining games, free soft drinks and no time limit. We had fun!

We've tried almost everything, from escape rooms to Gamer and laser tag. Everyone was super helpful and everything is explained precisely. You certainly won't get bored there. We'd love to come again.

An escape room in a new way. Umpteen different games that you play against each other in competition. Really well suited for couples and groups. Recommended length of stay just under 2 hours. You have to buy tickets for a time slot online in advance.

Gamer is really cool! Simply something different from an escape room. There are lots of different mini skill games, which do also require a bit of athleticism though! Still, there's something for everyone, whether old or young. Drop by and see for yourselves. We would come again!

Escape Room Alternative: Why Gamer fits your group

20 games instead of one puzzle

An escape room is one puzzle in one room. At Gamer you play 20 games of action, skill and knowledge, played in 1-on-1 duels. The match plan puts together new duels every round, and the live ranking ties everything into one tournament. Because the game mix rotates, even the second visit is different from the first.

Everyone plays at the same time

And the group size? No splitting up: at Gamer up to 120 people play at the same time, every game with its own controller, and your smartphone guides you through the evening. No waiting, no watching, and nobody sits in the room next door.

For every group, every occasion

And if puzzles aren't your thing? Every round rewards a different strength: sometimes the fastest, sometimes the one with the best memory, sometimes the one with the steadiest hands. Whether it is a team event, a day out with friends or a family with kids, from 2 up to 120 people and from age 11, everyone joins in.

Simple and uncomplicated

And the organisation? Indoor and weatherproof, soft drinks included, booked online in 2 minutes. No complicated rulebook, no preparation needed, no room selection. Just come and forget everyday life, whether on the spur of the moment or planned long ahead.

In an escape room, often not everyone is active at the same time. There is searching, waiting, thinking.

Escape Room vs. Gamer: Common questions & answers

What is Gamer and why is it an alternative to an escape room?

Gamer in Nuremberg is your own Gameshow: 20 games of action, skill and knowledge, played in 1-on-1 duels. The match plan puts together new duels every round, and the live ranking ties everything into one tournament. Unlike a classic escape room, the focus is on action and variety instead of one puzzle under time pressure. Up to 120 people play at the same time, no splitting up.

How many people is Gamer suitable for?

Gamer is suitable for 2 to 120 people. Whether you come as a duo, with friends, as a family with kids or as a big group, everyone plays together. In an escape room, by contrast, the group size is usually limited to 4-6 people per room.

How long does a visit to Gamer take?

An experience at Gamer takes 75-120 minutes depending on the package. In that time you play your way through a changing mix of action, skill and knowledge games. Perfect for an afternoon or evening, and ideal to combine with a meal afterwards.

Is it too hard? I don't want any stress.

The games are deliberately built so that different strengths count: knowledge, timing, skill and reaction. You get a short explanation before every game, and nobody is stuck on a single puzzle for 20 minutes. Suitable from age 11.

What does Gamer cost compared to an escape room?

Gamer starts from €15 per person, drinks included. Escape rooms usually cost from around €25 per person. So at Gamer you get more variety, more games and no restriction to small groups.

Is Gamer also suitable for children and families?

Yes! Gamer can be played from age 11 and is perfect for families. The games demand skill, speed and knowledge, and children and adults have fun in equal measure. A great idea for the next family outing.

Can you also book Gamer in Nuremberg for team events?

Absolutely! Gamer in Nuremberg is perfect for team events, company parties and group outings. Up to 120 people play at the same time, no splitting up like in an escape room. Ideal for team events with action and fun.

What makes Gamer different from live escape games?

At live escape games you solve one puzzle in one room. At Gamer you play 20 different games in 1-on-1 duels, focused on action, skill and knowledge. Instead of racking your brains, you are busy the whole time. And you can come back, because the game mix rotates.

What is the atmosphere like at Gamer in Nuremberg?

The atmosphere at Gamer Nuremberg is reminiscent of a TV gameshow, with modern equipment and a warm welcome. After every round the mood swings between tension, laughter and cheering.

How do I book a visit?

Simply book online on our website, done in 2 minutes. Choose your package, the number of people and your preferred date. Spontaneous visits are also possible when capacity is available.
