This guide covers nine places to run an offsite escape game for your team in Singapore: seven landmarks, from Fort Siloso on Sentosa to the Battlebox under Fort Canning, plus your company dinner and dance and your own office. Groups start at 10 pax. Fort Siloso takes up to 1,000, and the indoor landmarks take 120 to 200. What changes from one venue to the next is the area, the weather, and whether the venue charges admission or hire.
The Escape Artist has run escape games in Singapore since 2013 and now runs them entirely offsite. Each game is written for one place, so the venue decides the story, the group size and the fee type. It doesn’t change our price.

What it costs at each venue
The game fee is the same at every venue: SGD 300 fixed plus SGD 20 a head on Standard, or SGD 1,100 fixed plus SGD 20 a head on Immersive. So 100 pax on Standard comes to SGD 2,300 whether you play at Fort Siloso or in your own boardroom. Both tiers run on MazeFox, our own web app, with one of our staff hosting. Immersive adds costumed facilitators stationed around the venue.
The fee type column is the only thing that sits on top, and the venue sets it. Four games are Immersive only: Code of Silence, Tea Party with the Mad Hatter, and the two that come to your office. We aren’t GST registered, so there’s no GST to add. The quote calculator works out your game fee for your headcount and tells you which venue charges apply.
Outdoor venues
Two of the landmarks are outdoors, and both games are staffed: a host runs the clock, and on an Immersive game, costumed facilitators wait along the route. Every outdoor route has sheltered hold points, and rain pauses the clock instead of ending the game. If the forecast looks bad ahead of the day, we’ll offer an indoor game or a new date.
Fort Siloso, Sentosa
Fort Siloso is Singapore’s only preserved coastal fort, on the western tip of Sentosa. Lost Treasure of Sarang Rimau is the escape game set across its ramparts and tunnels. Your team, about to evacuate, finds a package by a cannon pointing to a pirate chest, and has to reach it before the boat leaves. Up to 1,000 pax, outdoors, 120 minutes. The fort is free to enter. Take the Sentosa Express to Beach Station; the fort is at Siloso Point, the western end of Siloso Beach.
Chinatown
Chinatown’s shophouse streets are the board for Whisper of the Guardians. A shophouse owner renovating his attic finds a scroll leading to treasure Chinese merchants hid during the Second World War. Your team is hired to decipher it, street by street, with guardians and thieves in play. Up to 200 pax, outdoors, 120 minutes. These are public streets, so the venue costs nothing, and Chinatown MRT on the North East and Downtown lines puts you in the middle of it.
Indoor venues
Five of the landmarks are indoors, so a wet forecast doesn’t touch them. Each is a working museum, gallery, attraction or mall, and the game is played through it.
Singapore Maritime Gallery, Marina South
The Singapore Maritime Gallery at Marina South Pier tells the story of Singapore’s port, and it’s free to enter. Two Pieces, our newest game, opened here on 22 August 2026. A secret chamber under the old Fullerton Lighthouse gives up a strange two-piece artefact, and teams race through the gallery to decipher it. Up to 200 pax, 120 minutes, and we suggest at least 20. Marina South Pier MRT (North South line) is beside the building.
Asian Civilisations Museum, Civic District
The Asian Civilisations Museum sits on the Singapore River at Empress Place, a short walk from Raffles Place MRT. Artefact Temporis plays through its galleries. A rover sent into a lost labyrinth beneath a Balinese king’s palace has gone silent, and the clues to reconnect it are among the exhibits. Up to 150 pax, 120 minutes. Admission is free for Singaporeans and PRs, but foreign visitors pay the museum’s entry, so check your group’s mix first.
Oceanarium, Sentosa
The Oceanarium is the aquarium at Resorts World Sentosa, one stop on the Sentosa Express from VivoCity. Heart of the Ocean is played here. Teams find an enchanted board game, and every roll of the dice sends them to a different zone to win keywords. Some tiles move you forward, some push you back. Up to 150 pax, 120 minutes. It’s a paid attraction, so every player needs an admission ticket, charged per head by the venue.
VivoCity, HarbourFront
VivoCity is the big mall at HarbourFront, across the water from Sentosa. Wonderland runs along its walkways. Your friend Alice vanishes moments after messaging about a white rabbit, and teams follow the clues she left at her favourite spots before the portal closes. Up to 120 pax, 120 minutes. It’s a public mall, so there’s no admission or hire, HarbourFront MRT connects straight into the building, and lunch afterwards sorts itself out.
Battlebox, Fort Canning
The Battlebox is the underground WWII command bunker beneath Fort Canning, where Malaya Command met as Singapore fell in February 1942. Code of Silence puts your team in that bunker with an encrypted code word to get to Force 136’s agents before the Japanese arrive. Up to 120 pax, 120 minutes. It’s Immersive only, so costumed facilitators come with it. The bunker is hired exclusively, and the hire includes admission. Fort Canning MRT is a short walk up the hill.
Your dinner and dance, islandwide
Tea Party with the Mad Hatter is a dining escape game for your company dinner and dance, at the hotel or restaurant you’ve booked. Every riddle a table solves brings out the next course. From 100 to 1,000 pax, seated, 120 minutes, and Immersive only. The meal is part of your own booking with the venue, so there’s nothing on top from us.
Running it at your own office or event venue
Two of our games travel, so the venue can be your office, a function hall, or the hotel ballroom you’ve already taken for a retreat. We bring the hosts, props and run sheet.
- Journey into the Unknown runs at any indoor venue for up to 300 pax. A ship bound for Earth-II is hit by a cosmic dust cloud, and teams have 90 minutes to repair the escape pods before life support fails.
- Race to Infinity is a race-format game for up to 500 that works indoors or out. Teams have 150 minutes to recover five jewels.
Both are Immersive only. At your own space there’s no venue fee at all. If you’d like us to find a space, that space charges its own hire. More on team building at your own venue.
Which venue is nearest to you
In Singapore, “team building near me” mostly comes down to which MRT line your office is on.
- City centre and the CBD: Chinatown, the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Battlebox are close together, which suits an afternoon out of a Raffles Place or Tanjong Pagar office.
- The southern waterfront: VivoCity at HarbourFront, and the Singapore Maritime Gallery at Marina South Pier.
- Sentosa: Fort Siloso and the Oceanarium, a Sentosa Express ride from VivoCity.
- Anywhere at all: your own office, with Journey into the Unknown or Race to Infinity.
Picking one quickly
- Over 200 pax: Fort Siloso, up to 1,000, or your own venue with Race to Infinity, up to 500.
- Worried about rain: any of the five indoor landmarks, or your office.
- Nothing on top of the game fee: Fort Siloso, Chinatown, the Singapore Maritime Gallery, VivoCity or your own space.
- A company dinner and dance of 100 or more: Tea Party with the Mad Hatter, played between courses.
- The most atmosphere per square metre: the Battlebox, a real wartime bunker under a hill.
For a retreat or a learning journey
On a Sentosa retreat, Fort Siloso is the obvious centrepiece: it’s near the island’s hotels and takes the whole company at once. For a city retreat, Chinatown keeps up to 200 people on foot between the hotel and dinner. And if the retreat is at a hotel or resort, either travelling game runs in its function room. Our company retreat ideas cover the rest of the day.
For a learning journey, the museum and heritage venues work best: the Asian Civilisations Museum, the Singapore Maritime Gallery, the Battlebox and Fort Siloso. The puzzles are written around what’s on display, so the group plays the exhibits as a team. Our education clients so far are universities and polytechnics. There’s more on learning journeys as an escape game.

Questions people ask
What is the best outdoor team building venue in Singapore?
For a large group, Fort Siloso on Sentosa. Our escape game there takes up to 1,000 pax across the fort's ramparts and tunnels, and the fort is free to enter, so there's no admission or hire on top. For up to 200, Chinatown is easier to reach by MRT and keeps the day in the city. Both games are staffed by our hosts, and rain pauses the clock.
Can you run the team building at our office?
Yes. Journey into the Unknown runs at any indoor venue, including an office, a function hall or a hotel ballroom, for up to 300 pax in 90 minutes. Race to Infinity runs at any venue for up to 500 over 150 minutes. Both are Immersive, so costumed facilitators come too. We bring the hosts, props and run sheet, and at your own space there's no venue fee to pay.
What happens if it rains on the day?
An outdoor game pauses and picks up again. Every outdoor route has sheltered hold points, so teams wait out a shower and the clock stops for everyone. If the forecast is bad before the day, we'll offer an indoor game or a new date. Five of the seven landmarks in this guide are indoors anyway: a museum, a gallery, an aquarium, a mall and a wartime bunker.
How many people can each venue take?
It depends on the game written for that venue. Fort Siloso takes up to 1,000 pax, Chinatown and the Singapore Maritime Gallery 200, the Asian Civilisations Museum and the Oceanarium 150, VivoCity and the Battlebox 120, and the dinner and dance game 100 to 1,000. At your own venue, Journey into the Unknown takes 300 and Race to Infinity 500. Groups start at 10 pax.
Is there an entry fee at the venue?
At some of them. The Oceanarium needs an admission ticket for every player. The Battlebox is hired exclusively, and the hire includes admission. The Asian Civilisations Museum is free for Singaporeans and PRs, while foreign visitors pay. Fort Siloso, Chinatown, VivoCity, the Singapore Maritime Gallery and your own office charge nothing. Any venue charge is set by the venue and sits on top of our game fee.
Which venue works for a learning journey?
The Asian Civilisations Museum, the Singapore Maritime Gallery and the Battlebox, or Fort Siloso if you'd rather be outdoors. The puzzles are written around what's on display, so the group plays the exhibits as a team instead of walking past them with a worksheet. Group sizes run from 120 at the Battlebox to 1,000 at Fort Siloso. Our education clients so far are universities and polytechnics.
