Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Enjoyable and fun escape room especially strip club escape
Nov 2023 • Couples
Enjoyed all 3 games in Rotofobia (The Missing, One hell of a kitchen & Strip club escape R18).

Prices was attractive as well.

The missing was 30mins and everything must be solved in 1 room.. it was quite challenging as we don’t know which of the puzzle to solve 1st.. it was fun though.

One hell of a kitchen - it was tough.. required multiple hints to progress in this game. Game’s logic sequence of solving puzzle is not as straightforward.

Strip club escape - it was the most fun among the 3.. the puzzles are not super tough and theme makes it so lively and enjoyable.. only needed a few hints when we got stucked.. overall this is good.

Fun rainy day or night time escape room in Rotorua
Oct 2023 • Friends
First escape room for me. So, I needed help and they did a great job of giving clues to allow me to find the answer. Locally owned business with super friendly people. Great rainy day activity to get the brain working.

Awesome experience!
May 2023
Will definitely be going back to Rotofobia to do another escape room! We had such an awesome experience in our escape room that was full of lots of different and unique puzzles that really had us thinking. The staff were great and were really helpful, knowing exactly when we could use a bit of assistance. We can't wait to come back!
