For a growing portion of the population, paying to be locked in a room for an hour and having to solve sometimes fiendishly difficult puzzles is the leisure activity of choice. Welcome to the world of Escape Rooms Belfast style

For some people, blowing off steam at the end of the week or relaxing on holiday means having a drink somewhere cosy and stress-free.

"It's good that all these people eventually can be exposed to this and they're potential customers but bad if the awareness isn't there." "Being in Belfast and that being such a cornerstone of our history, and a world draw, people come from all over the world to hear about Titanic, so we thought without being crass or disrespectful, we wanted to make a game that was true to the history," said Justin.

"You do have a wee giggle about it but people are unique and individual, so you've no idea what way people will react to things in a room. "If you could see the amount of wires etc that goes on in the background, it would blow your mind and the room we're working on at the moment is costing just shy of £100k.

About 15 minutes away, on Shaftesbury Square, a similarly nondescript entry hides the more horror-themed offerings of the Forbidden Quest escape rooms. "Our rooms do have actors and things, so you're interacting with characters and because we're more horror themed, you're increasing the scare factor. "Definitely one of the challenges is making a game that's suitable for everyone - if you have a group that's played 50 rooms, they could get out in 20 minutes, so it's got to be a game that challenges them.
