KINGDOM COME: EXPERIENCE

Immersive experience of epic proportions
3,5 hours, 10 characters, medieval fortress

This game takes place at a medieval castle in Malešov, located a one-hour drive from Prague. This small village with a castle is surrounded by beautiful nature and it’s just next to the UNESCO heritage site of the medieval town of Kutná Hora (both Malešov castle and Kutná Hora are crucial parts of the videogame Kingdom Come: Deliverance, by which our game is inspired).

On Thursday, we will organise transport for you from Prague centre to Malešov. The game takes place from 16:00 to 20:00, or if you prefer an earlier start, from 11:00 to 15:00. If there is enough demand, we will also open games on Wednesday or Sunday. In the evening after the game, you are invited for a networking and a buffet in a medieval tavern just under the castle, where we can all reflect on the experience and network.

Malešov—accommodation options

You can also book accommodation at the location through us—be it in Medieval Glamour Campsite, stylish Apartments in an adjacent old brewery from the 16th century or other stylish apartments just next to the castle. For the brave ones who don’t need luxury or prefer staying on budget, you can join the cast of the game for free at the castle, sleeping on mattresses on the floor (you’ll need to bring your own sleeping bag). The next day after breakfast, we will organise the transport for you back to Prague (we can stop in Kutná Hora for those staying there overnight).

If you are playing the game from 16:00, we highly recommend staying in Malešov overnight—for the after-game talk and to enjoy the genius loci and the atmosphere of this magical place. If there is no accommodation left for you in Malešov, you can take a taxi to Kutná Hora, where there are many accommodation options as well. Of course, you can just join to play the game and organise your own transportation back to Prague and accommodation for the night.

If you are playing the game from 11:00, you are invited for the evening networking, buffet and potential accommodation as well! You can spend the time between the game and networking for a quick visit to Kutná Hora, enjoy the surroundings of the castle in Malešov or craft beer in the adjacent brewery. 🙂 Alternatively, you can also try out our portable gamesNucleus and Pirate Chests, which we will bring to Malešov as well.

CHAMCORP: THE CYBERGAME

Epic futuristic immersive experience
5 hours, 30+ actors, cyberpunk setting

On Friday, after coming back from Malešov, you will have time to check in at your accommodation in Prague and prepare yourself for the evening in the cyberpunk future! You can spend some time trying out some new (or some old 🙂 ) escape rooms in Prague. ChamCorp, both the game and all side activities, starts at 17:00 and ends at 22:00.

It’s not necessary to arrive at 17:00 exactly, it is up to you how you spend your time. However, we highly recommend arriving as soon as possible. After the game ends (at 22:00), although the side activities are closed, you are invited to remain for the after-party and networking at the location!

THE CONFERENCE

The Conference will take place on Saturday in Cargo Gallery in the centre of Prague, approx. 10:00–19:00 (exact schedule TBA).

The full list of guests and programme of the conference will be announced during the upcoming weeks. However, it is our pleasure to introduce some of the speakers:

David Spira & Lisa Spira (Room Escape Artist, USA)
Jeroen van Hasselt & Tim Vandewinkel (Entered, Belgium)
Dimitris Varelas & Vergina Savvidi (Paradox Project, Greece)
Nataša Potočnik (Enigmarium, Slovenia)
Zoltan Papp (clueQuest / Zolitopia, UK)
Vojtěch Vašák & Barbora Fričová (The Chamber, Czechia)
Ken Ferguson (enthusiast with 1300+ games played, UK)
Ron Kagan (enthusiast with 1000+ games played, Israel)

There are various topics we would like to discuss. Here are the main goals of the conference:

  • To spark debate and inspire new ideas about where escape rooms can develop, what new models they can adopt, and what interesting game mechanics they can incorporate— and that escape rooms can take on very diverse forms.
  • At the same time, to have a more traditional and practical approach included as well, focused on clever and layered puzzle design in classic escape room formats.
  • To explore the potential of escape room industry not only in the B2C space, but also in B2B applications, as well as their impact on other industries.
  • To show escape room professionals the perspective of experienced enthusiasts, offering an insight into different approaches in escape rooms.
  • To share experience and knowledge among escape room companies on different approaches in escape room operating and innovation.

And the buffet during the conference is included in your ticket!

WHY ALL THIS?

Dear escape room enthusiasts and professionals,

We are The Chamber from Prague (Czech Republic), and we have been creating and operating escape rooms since 2014. You might know us through TERPECA—our company ranked among the top escape room companies in the years 2018–2021, and our games have been ranked as TERPECA Finalists ever since, including a three-time winner, Project Poltergeist.

Besides classic escape rooms, we always tried to push the boundaries of real-life gaming forward. In 2018, we introduced Kingdom Come: Experience, which is a 3.5-hour-long game with 10 actors, taking place at a real medieval castle, based on the internationally acclaimed video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance (with its official license). This game of ours is a fusion of escape room mechanics, an open-world setting, interactive theatre, and RPG elements in real life. We’ve been successfully running this game for 8 years now.

In 2024, as part of our 10th birthday celebration, we introduced an even larger project called ChamCorp: The CyberGame. This game is run for up to 200 players simultaneously, with more than 30 actors in an open-world setting of a futuristic cyberpunk Underground City. This game offers much more freedom than other games—you can choose different story paths, there is up to 5 hours of gameplay, and the players can use their time not only to solve puzzles and progress in the main story but also for side activities such as robot fights, a huge amount of arcade games, gambling in the casino, having a drink at a bar or fighting with street gangs in a laser nerf arena.

However, we are a little sad that the international ER community isn’t widely aware of these projects. That is why we’ve decided to organise an event for you to come to Czechia and play Kingdom Come: Experience & ChamCorp: The CyberGame together. But that is not all! We aim to create a space to discuss and to learn about such new formats of escape rooms and the future of real-life gaming. That’s why a one-day conference with interesting guests from the industry will be part of the event as well! The whole event should also serve as a platform for networking and community building.
