Packages

Standard Team Session

Monday to Friday, 9am till 5pm
$300 per room. Minimum 2 rooms.

All rooms run at the same time, so your whole team starts and finishes together. Total time on site is around 90 minutes: arrival and welcome, a briefing from your Game Master, 60 minutes in the room, and a debrief with photos afterwards.

This format works for groups of 6 to 36 depending on venue.

Minimum spend: $600 (2 rooms)

Half-Day Experience

Monday to Friday
$300 per room. Minimum 4 rooms across 2 sessions.

Available in two windows.
Morning: 9:30am to 1:00pm (sessions at 10:00 and 12:00)
Afternoon: 1:30pm to 5:00pm (sessions at 2:00 and 4:00)

Your team arrives 30 minutes early for a welcome briefing. You then play your first rooms, break for a structured debrief, and swap into different rooms for a second session. Same teams, new challenge. The morning session wraps at 1pm, which gives your group time to head somewhere nearby for lunch. The afternoon session suits teams who prefer a later start or want to combine it with a morning meeting.

Minimum spend: $1,200 (4 rooms across 2 sessions)

How it works

1. Get in touch. Fill in the form above, email or call us. We will get back to you within 24 hours with availability and a tailored quote.

2. Lock in your date. We place a tentative hold on your preferred date while you confirm numbers internally. No commitment required at this stage.

3. Confirm and pay. Invoice can be raised as a deposit or the full amount, with payment due before or on the day. We can work with purchase orders and institutional payment terms.

4. Play day. Your team arrives, plays, debriefs, and walks away with a shared experience. Final numbers can be adjusted up to 48 hours before your session. If your group grows, we add rooms.

Why escape rooms work for teams

Escape rooms are increasingly used as team-performance research tools in universities and corporate training programmes. A 2020 study in the International Journal of Hospitality Management found that escape room participation produced measurable gains in team cohesion after a single session (Zhang et al., 2020).
Separate research at Purdue University showed that successful and unsuccessful teams displayed distinctly different communication behaviours within the first 20 minutes, with high-performing teams delegating earlier and sharing information more openly (Detwiler et al., 2022).

The skills that surface during a session, including delegation, decision-making under pressure, and clear communication, map directly to the competencies most workplace team building programmes are designed to develop. The difference is that your team is having fun while they do it.

We have been hosting corporate team building events at Rush since 2015, working with teams from KPMG, Coles, Apple, Mercedes-Benz, Disney and hundreds of Melbourne businesses.
