In your first mission, the operator will put you through your paces, to see whether you’re worthy of joining his team. The corrupt politician Simon Dickson has gone into hiding because of potential criminal proceedings against him. The opposition has assigned you to investigate the circumstances surrounding his disappearance and uncover his dark deeds in order to finally end his career.
The Operator instructs you to visit Dickson’s mansion in a wealthy district of Vienna and break into his private office. Uncover his corrupt dealings and put a stop to his illegal activities.

Crime Scene: Back alley
Escape Room 2 – Branch Schottentor
Maria-Theresien-Straße 3/Top 1a, 1090 Zurich
Well, perhaps your last mission didn’t go quite according to plan, however, the operator is satisfied with your accomplishment, and your next mission is waiting for you:
Using his connections, the Operator has planted you in a crime scene unit searching for evidence relating to a recent murder case. Who is the victim? Where is the murder weapon? And – most importantly – who is the murderer? Perhaps this ordinary alleyway hides secrets even darker than murder?
To make matters worse, a powerful thunderstorm is approaching the city! When the storm hits, all the evidence will be washed away and the trail will go cold. If the weather service predictions are correct, you’ve only got one hour to solve the case and get to shelter. The clock is ticking!

The end of the world is nigh. In a last-ditch attempt to save mankind (and himself), the Operator has dispatched his finest team to the mysterious laboratory at the very heart of the catastrophe. Make your way down into the depths of the underground research facility and produce a cure using a blood sample from Patient Zero. You’ll need to move fast, the military has already begun bombing the facility in an ill-advised attempt to stem the infection!
The heart-pounding conclusion of the Simon Dickson saga – a thrilling tale of crime, conspiracies, and adventure.

About us
We – Stefan, Steffen, and Lukas – are a team of enthusiastic Escape Room players. We have always had the feeling that something was missing in the concept of Escape Rooms and that the experience could be made even more exciting and intense. At Crime Runners, we attempt to fill this gap with narrative, immersive special effects, and challenging puzzles.
We look forward to your feedback on Crime Runners.
