The games
What is an offsite escape game?
An offsite escape game is a live, facilitated, immersive experience where teams solve puzzles to escape within a set time, held at a venue of your choice rather than a fixed escape room. Our hosts are physically present, often in costume, and the format scales from 10 to more than 1,000 people.
How many people can take part?
We run games for groups of roughly 10 to 1,000+ people. Our minimum is 10 pax, and we scale all the way to 1,000+. Different games have different maximum capacities, from 50 up to 1,000, so we will match the game to your headcount.
Where are the games held?
At venues across Singapore, including River Wonders, Sentosa's Fort Siloso, Haw Par Villa, the Asian Civilisations Museum, Chinatown, Battlebox at Fort Canning and more. Several games can also run at any indoor venue, including your own office or a space we help you find.

What is a good team building activity in Singapore for a large group?
A facilitated offsite escape game works well for large Singapore teams because it runs the same experience in parallel across many groups, from 10 people up to more than 1,000. Everyone plays at the same venue on the same day, so no department has to sit it out. It suits company D&Ds, department offsites, conferences and family days.
What is the difference between team bonding and team building?
Team building usually aims at a skill, such as communication or problem-solving. Team bonding aims at the relationship, so people leave actually knowing and trusting each other. A facilitated escape game does both at once: colleagues solve a shared case under a running clock, which builds the skill and the bond in the same afternoon.
What does a team building company in Singapore do?
A team building company plans and runs the event for you: it matches an activity to your group size and goals, handles the venue, facilitators, run sheet and any catering, transport or prizes, and runs the day on site. We do this as a facilitated offsite escape game for teams of 10 to 1,000+, and have done since 2013.
Is escape room team building suitable for large groups?
Yes, if the game is built to scale. A fixed retail escape room usually seats six to eight, so a big group has to queue or split across sessions. Our offsite version runs the same case in parallel across many teams at one venue, from 10 pax up to more than 1,000 on a single day.
How do I organise team building in Singapore?
Settle three things first: your headcount, a rough date, and whether you want it at your own office or at a Singapore venue. Send those to us and our events team replies within one business day with a tailored proposal covering the game, venue, facilitators and any catering, transport or prizes. You confirm the date, and we run the day.
What are good team bonding activities in Singapore for a large group?
For a large group, pick a format that runs the same experience in parallel across many teams at one venue on one day, so nobody sits out. Our offsite escape games do this from 10 pax up to more than 1,000, at venues such as River Wonders, Fort Siloso and Haw Par Villa, or at your own office. They suit company D&Ds, department offsites, conferences and family days.
How do we choose a team building company in Singapore?
Check three things: whether they have genuinely run events at your headcount, whether the pricing is transparent with no hidden per-head extras, and whether they can procure the way you need to pay. We run groups from 10 to more than 1,000, price as a clear game fee plus venue costs with no GST, and accept PayNow, Vendors@Gov, GeBIZ and company vendor portals.
How is an offsite escape game different from a walk-in escape room?
A walk-in room is a fixed set you visit in a small group for about an hour. Our offsite escape game comes to a venue of your choice, is run live by costumed facilitators, and scales to your whole team. It is booked as a curated group event through a proposal, not seat by seat.
How much does team building in Singapore cost?
The total is a game fee plus venue admission and venue fees. The game fee is a fixed fee plus SGD 20 per person: self-guided games start at SGD 300 fixed, fully facilitated immersive games at SGD 1,100 fixed. For larger self-guided groups the effective rate works out from about SGD 23 per person. We are non-GST registered, and large-group discounts are available.

How long has The Escape Artist been running team building events?
Since 2013. We have run facilitated escape games for corporate and MNC teams, government and public-sector agencies, and schools and universities across Singapore, at scales from a single team of 10 up to company-wide events of more than 1,000 people.
How many people can do an escape room team building event?
From 10 pax up to more than 1,000, depending on the game. Individual games have maximum capacities from 50 up to 1,000, so we match the game to your headcount and run enough parallel teams for everyone to play at once.
Can team building run at our own office?
Yes. Several of our games run at any indoor venue, including your office or a function room. Others are set at Singapore venues such as River Wonders, Fort Siloso and Battlebox at Fort Canning. Tell us the space you have, and we will match a game to it.
Can a team bonding session run at our own office?
Yes. Several of our games run at any indoor venue, including your office, a function room or a ballroom. Others are set at Singapore venues. Tell us the space you have and your headcount, and we will match a game to it.
Do you handle everything on the day?
Yes. You brief us once. Our facilitators arrive, set up the game, run the whole experience, often in costume, keep score and manage the clock. Catering, transport, prizes and extra activities are ours to arrange too. Your team, including HR, gets to play rather than run logistics.
Where can we do escape room team building in Singapore?
At venues across Singapore, including River Wonders, Sentosa's Fort Siloso, Haw Par Villa, the Asian Civilisations Museum, Chinatown and Battlebox at Fort Canning. Several games can also run at any indoor venue, including your own office.
Why choose an escape game over other team building activities?
An escape game gives everyone a shared problem and a running clock, which is what actually gets a team delegating, communicating and thinking together. Unlike a talk or a buffet, no one is a spectator. We have run these for corporate, government and education teams across Singapore since 2013.
