Mobile Escape Rooms from Escape Room-Novi!

You and your group of adventurers have been stopped by this magnificent dragon. The dragon proclaims you need to be tested in a battle of skill and whit. If you fail, your village will be destroyed and burnt to a crisp. But, if you succeed, you and your friends will live to see another day.
