FunHouse Escape Games
Do your children dream of living their own Fort Boyard? At the Forum Fribourg, FunHouse rolls out more than 1,000 m² of puzzles, skill challenges and adventures to solve as a team. An outing full of cooperation and bursts of laughter, ideal from 8 years when accompanied.
A life-size adventure at the Forum Fribourg
In Granges-Paccot, within the Forum Fribourg, FunHouse offers more than 1,000 m² of immersive adventure games. The heart of the offer, House of GameSide, is inspired by Fort Boyard: you travel through several worlds, solve puzzles, take on skill and thinking challenges, as a team and against the clock. The venue also brings together other playful formats, from quiz to blind test to karaoke. It is an outing that focuses on cooperation rather than fear, perfect with family or friends. You come for a birthday, a group outing or simply to take on challenges together.
What your children will discover
In House of GameSide, the children take on a variety of challenges spread across several worlds. You have to observe, think, sometimes climb or handle objects, and always collaborate to move forward. Each team faces a series of timed challenges in a game-show atmosphere. The other spaces, quiz, musical blind test or karaoke, let you extend the moment in a different way. The youngest love the movement and the challenges, while teens get into the team-versus-team challenge.
What you do there and the atmosphere on site
The atmosphere is dynamic, playful and good-natured. You form teams, divide up the roles, encourage each other and celebrate every challenge completed. The format is perfectly suited to groups and birthdays, with several teams playing in parallel. Parents can play alongside the children, which makes the experience accessible even to the youngest. It is less a closed room than a large playground of challenges.
