Packed with adrenaline, teamwork, and challenges, Prison Island delivers a thrilling adventure for friends, families, and corporate teams. 

Set to make its mark on Melbourne, Prison Island arrives for the first time this coming winter. From June 5, this interactive adventure will open its doors at District Docklands, bringing a completely new leisure concept to Melburnians. 

Brought to life by immersive entertainment specialists Make It Now, and co-produced with leading global live entertainment platform Fever, Prison Island features more than 30 unique "cells" - each of them offering a combination of action games, sports, and skills-based tests. 

Forget typical escape rooms, Prison Island is a fast-paced, team adventure where strategy, skill, and a little hustle are key. With 34 unique challenge cells to choose from, every room is a new mission, and every win gets you one step closer to the top of the leaderboard. 

Teams of two to five players have 90 minutes to conquer as many challenges as possible – ranging from logical thinking and dexterity to physical tasks. Each cell is individually designed to keep players constantly engaged, allowing friends, families and colleagues to reveal their competitive sides and experience the thrill of overcoming challenges together. 

Each cell presents a unique, themed task – from skills-based games and tricky brainteasers to athletic challenges. Some require lightning-fast reflexes and strategic thinking, while others test memory, coordination, or team communication. Whether dodging laser beams, solving colour-coded puzzles, or operating complex mechanisms, every challenge is an immersive experience that demands both skill and creativity. 

Thanks to cutting-edge technology and innovative game design, every visit feels fresh and exciting. The diverse cells are designed to offer multiple solutions, keeping the experience engaging for returning visitors. With a wide range of challenges, the game is suitable for both beginners and experienced players alike. 

Originating in Scandinavia, the concept of Prison Island has already captivated audiences in numerous European cities. “Our mission is to bring people together through play and create an unforgettable experience. The various cells provide a dynamic and versatile experience that combines action, logic, and teamwork,” said Mikael Bouteillon, Founder of Prison Island.
