THIS IS LONDON SEPTEMBER EDITION 2025 copy - Flipbook - Page 35
PRISON ISLAND MAKES ITS MARK
Adrenaline, teamwork, and a wealth of
exciting challenges: Prison Island is set
to make its mark on London for the first
time. From 9 September, this interactive
adventure will open its doors, offering a
completely new leisure concept to
Holloway Road, in North London. With
over 30 unique ‘cells’, visitors can
expect an action-packed blend of games,
sports, and skill-based tests as they
collaborate to solve challenges and earn
their freedom. Prison Island London is
brought to life by Make It now, a French
company with extensive experience in
the leisure industry and co-produced by
Fever, the world’s leading platform for
live entertainment.
Prison Island goes a step beyond the
traditional escape room concept, it’s a
diverse series of games, requiring the
use of strategy, skill, and agility. Teams
of two to five players have 90 minutes to
score as many points as possible –
ranging from logical thinking and
dexterity to physical tasks. With each
‘cell’ they enter, teams are faced with a
different cognitive or physical challenge
to solve under time pressure, keeping
players constantly on their toes, thinking
quickly and focused on the task at hand.
More than just an escape room, Prison
Island reinvents the concept by blending
the best of escape challenges with the
thrill of an action game, dynamic,
immersive, and truly unforgettable.
Whether dodging laser beams,
solving color-coded puzzles, or
operating complex mechanisms, every
challenge is an experience that demands
participants act skillfully and think
creatively. With the clock ticking, there’s
no time thoughts of life on the outside,
offering a fun, 90-minute escape from
reality.
London is known for its diverse
entertainment and cultural scene –
but Prison Island is raising the bar,
bringing a leisure concept like no other
to the city.
