Kids Birthday in Vienna
Active and on the move through Vienna's Stadtpark: the outdoor tablet mission "Monster in the City" for kids aged 6 to 12. For teens aged 14+, our Indoor Escape Room is open too. An experience the birthday kids won't forget.
What to keep in mind
So you know what to expect – here's openly and honestly what we do and what we don't.
What we offer
✓ Outdoor city mission "Monster in the City" – the main program for kids aged 6 to 12. Tablet-based, from Escape Mission to the Stadtpark, kid-friendly story, active movement in the fresh air.
✓ Indoor Escape Room for ages 14+ – for teenage birthdays. Challenging puzzles, atmospheric rooms.
What we deliberately DON'T do
✗ No birthday party with cake on-site. With us it's about the game – not the party itself. Cake, gifts and celebration happen at home, in the park or at a café afterwards.
✗ No program for kids under 6 and no Indoor program for kids aged 6 to 13. Indoor isn't suitable for under-14s – the atmosphere and puzzles are aimed at adults. Younger kids have far more fun at "Monster in the City" outdoors.
Why so clear about it? Because our booking volume doesn't allow it – and because we want to guarantee a genuinely great experience for every group, instead of doing too many things half-heartedly.
Outdoor or Indoor?
Your choice depends on the age of the birthday kids. For kids aged 6 to 12: the outdoor city mission "Monster in the City" – our special program for children. From age 14, our Indoor Escape Rooms are open too.

Book IndoorWhat is Monster in the City?
Monster in the City is an outdoor adventure for kids aged 6 to 13 – a GPS tablet mission that combines a scavenger hunt, clever puzzles and an immersive story into one single experience. Instead of a room, the game takes you outside through Vienna: play, solve, hunt monsters – and discover the city from a whole new angle.
Interactive Story
Professor Proof and his helper crow Mrs. Crow guide you through a funny, immersive story on the tablet. In the dialogues you make choices that shape how the story unfolds – you're part of it, not just watching.
GPS Scavenger Hunt
A GPS tablet guides you stage by stage through Vienna's Stadtpark. Along the way you solve puzzles, navigate the surroundings and track down hidden monsters.
3D Augmented Reality
Once you've cracked a mini-game, you scan the matching monster and experience it in 3D with sound, right in your real surroundings on the tablet.
Analog & Digital Puzzles
A mix of classic brain-teasers and digital mini-games. You interact with your surroundings and only reach the goal as a team.
Highscore & Diamonds
The faster and more accurately you solve, the more diamonds you collect – and the higher your team climbs the final highscore.
Photo Memory
Funny group photos are taken during the tour. You'll receive them by email after the game – the perfect memory of your monster hunt.

Everything parents need to know
Small, caring, independent
We're a small team from Vienna. Since 2013 we've designed and built every mission ourselves – every puzzle, every mechanism, every story. No franchise, no off-the-shelf. That's exactly why we can take the time to craft every detail with care and personally look after every group.
Just one room per mission – but packed with hand-built puzzles, mechanical surprises and loving details. Where big franchise operators cram five nearly empty rooms into one mission, we put everything into a single one. Honest, easygoing, made with love for the craft – you'll feel it in every mission. Indoor & weather-independent – also the perfect bad-weather plan in Vienna.
Built ourselves
All puzzles and mechanisms designed in Vienna – we craft every detail ourselves.
With love & care
Small means: personal attention for every group – no mass operation.
Indoor bilingual
Devils Mountain and The Alchemist bookable in German or English. Monster in the City is German only.
