In these booking conditions references to ‘you’ and ‘your’ include the first named person on the booking and all persons on whose behalf a booking is made or any other person to whom a booking is added or transferred.

We act in the following capacities: as an escape experience game provider (for corporate team buildings, friends and family outings etc). Our obligations to you may vary depending upon which arrangements you book with us and we have tried to set them out below as clearly as possible.

Section A applies to bookings where we act as an escape game experience provider.

 

SECTION A – ESCAPE GAME TEAM BOOKINGS

This section applies to escape game bookings made via our website for company team buildings, family and friends outings, school outings, birthday celebrations etc. The booking process is explained in detail in our FAQ.

 

3.1 Age restrictions & Booking responsibility

Our games are suitable for age 12 years and up and we require one adult to be present per each team that contains players under 16 years of age (in this situation the adult(s) can join free of charge if not playing). Children under 12 years of age can join only as part of a group of adults. In addition, rooms are not designed to be child-safe and contain items, such as cupboard doors and small objects, that could be hazardous to young children whilst accompanying adults are distracted by the game.

Where a customer is booking tickets on behalf of themselves and other members of a group, that person must be authorised to make the booking on the basis of acceptance of these Terms and Conditions by all persons involved in the booking and by a parent or guardian for anyone under 18 years of age when the booking is made.

Bookings can only be made via the online booking system on our website; via telephone or in person at our business premises. You are entirely responsible for entering your details correctly on our online booking system.

Omescape is a live event with a scheduled start time and you are responsible for ensuring that all of your group of players arrive at the time stated on your booking confirmation, which is generally 10 minutes before your game start time. Games will not be delayed for late arrivals, although we will allow late arrivals into the room after your escape game has begun, but not more than 15 minutes into the game.

If none of your party has arrived 15 minutes after your booked game start time, this will be treated as no-show and we will have to refuse entry to your game. No refund or rescheduling is available for no-shows.

It is your responsibility to make your way to our business premises to play your game at the time stated on your booking confirmation. We do not provide parking or other travel arrangements and any travel information provided on our site is only done so as an aid to planning your visit. We cannot be held responsible for any failure of transport arrangements that result in your booking being a no-show.

 

3.2 Gameplay & Conduct

No video recordings or photos are allowed inside the rooms. You are expected not to use any video/audio recording device during the game (this includes,without limitation, mobile phones, recording devices and cameras), unless a different arrangement has been made with our venue prior to your booking (i.e. film and production crews etc.).

If you are a blogger, vlogger, press representative planning to film or take photos at our venue for review purposes, then please get in touch at info@omescapelondon.co.uk for permission.

We expect you and your group not to disclose any details of the game directly or indirectly to any third party members.

However, we understand that sometimes schedules change and that unexpected and unavoidable things happen. Below are our policies regarding cancellations and rescheduling bookings and other events at Omescape.

Refunds and rescheduling will depend on the number of rooms booked and the amount of lead time given between the initial request to cancel/ reschedule a booking and the date of the booking. Whether all the cancelled games are likely to resell will also be taken into consideration.

 

5.1 Between 1-2 escape rooms booked

There are exceptional circumstances in which we will issue a full refund or reschedule a booking without a handling fee. These circumstances include (but are not limited to):

Please note that we can not refund in case of travel disruptions, misreading the date/time of a booking or team members dropping out, but we will do our best to help you reschedule when possible.

Each refund or reschedule request will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If you need to cancel/reschedule a booking please get in touch at info@omescapelondon.co.uk quoting your booking reference number and specifying the date you want to reschedule for and the reason you are rescheduling/cancelling.

 

  1. YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS

As a consumer, you have certain legal rights with respect to the purchase of services. For full details of your legal rights and guidance on exercising them, it is recommended that you contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards Office.

Nothing in these booking terms and conditions is intended to affect your statutory rights.

 

6.1 Law and jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions, and the relationship between you and us (whether contractual or otherwise) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, English law.

If you are a consumer, any disputes concerning these Terms and Conditions, the relationship between you and us, or any matters arising therefrom or associated therewith (whether contractual or otherwise) shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of England, Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland, as determined by your residency.

If you are a business, any disputes concerning these Terms and Conditions, the relationship between you and us, or any matters arising therefrom or associated therewith (whether contractual or otherwise) shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

 

  1. OUR LIABILITY

We accept no liability for consequential losses incurred as the result of the cancellation or premature cessation of a booking under any circumstances. The absolute limit of direct liability relating to any one booking shall be the full amount paid by the customer for that booking.

Whilst your escape experience is insured both by the venue and public liability held by Wing Entertainment Ltd, you undertake to act carefully whilst within the experience and will not take unnecessary risks such as climbing on unsafe surfaces that are not designed for that purpose. The game does not require such activities and customers are made aware of that by staff during the briefing. You are responsible for your own safety during the experience.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions seeks to exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence (including that of our employees, agents or subcontractors) or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

 

7.1 Events outside of our control (Force Majeure)

We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations where that failure or delay results from any cause that is beyond our reasonable control.

Such causes include, but are not limited to: acts and omissions of landlords, power failure, internet service provider failure, industrial action by third parties, civil unrest, fire, explosion, flood, storms, earthquakes, subsidence, acts of terrorism, acts of war, governmental action, epidemic or other natural disaster, or any other event that is beyond our reasonable control.

In the event of an unforeseeable ‘Act of God’ (e.g. fire, bomb scare, terrorist threat, attack, earthquake, flood etc), the company and its staff and managers are not liable for an impeded exit due to being voluntarily locked in a room. You acknowledge that this might delay your exit from the building in the event of such a situation, but that there is an efficient emergency exit strategy and an exit button/door.
