Russian spaceship ‘escape room’ experience coming to South London

An escape room experience that immerses visitors in an abandoned Russian spaceship is opening this month in South London.

PHOBOS-17, located at The Artworks in Elephant and Castle, will see teams of up to four people work to unlock the mysteries of the spacecraft.

During each 60-minute session, participants will race against time as they aim to break into a sealed laboratory and snatch the prize before escaping from the facility.

PHOBOS-17 was created by Tom Hall, the immersive theatre actor-director and founder of leisure operator Mostly Harmless.

Tom said: “Once again, I’m delighted to say I own a spaceship in South London.

“We’ve had great fun building it and designing puzzles, I can’t wait to welcome people on board!”

Mostly Harmless’ previous project, THE LIFEBOAT, was a pop-up escape room launched earlier this year at the city’s annual arts festival VAULT.
