About

Inspired by the ‘Crystal Maze’ Prison Island Belfast has just launched NEW CHALLENGE CELLS - Now with 31 different prison-themed challenge cells to tackle. It’s a totally unique concept in Northern Ireland. 

Can you ‘Beat The Bars’?

In teams of two to four people (teams of five are also allowed, but not recommended) you are free to move around and try any cell, in any order, with 12 Mental, 10 Skill and 9 physical games, there’s something for everyone. Unlike an escape room, you are free to leave a cell at any time.

The objective for each team is to score as many points as possible in their paid game time of one, one and a half or two hours. A live scoring system lets you see how you are doing in real time versus other teams. Prison Island is suitable for those aged nine to 99! For two to 100 players.

Action, adrenaline, adventure. Are you ready to take on this incredible challenge?

Although the games are set to English - All game tags can be changed into eight different languages; Spanish, German, French, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish,Norwegian and Czech. 

Looking for another fantastic activity? Then check out outdoor urban axe throwing at the Axe Yard! Stress-busting, steel-sinking fun awaits! No axe-perience necessary.
