Oxygen is running out
Alarms blare throughout the space station as everything around you begins to fail. Critical systems are offline, power is unstable, and oxygen levels are falling fast. With communications down and no rescue coming, there is only one way back to Earth: the escape pod. But there is a problem — it’s malfunctioning and nowhere near ready for launch.
Your mission is clear. You have sixty minutes to restore the station’s power, repair the damaged systems, bring the escape pod back online and prepare it for flight. Once everything is operational, plot a course for Earth and launch before time runs out. A hands-on sci-fi adventure — low on fear, high on teamwork, and a solid 4/5 challenge built for crews who work well under pressure.

Frequently asked questions
Is it scary?
No — it’s a low-fear sci-fi adventure. The pressure comes from the countdown, not from horror.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes — recommended 10+. Players aged 9–11 need an adult or Games Master in the room with them, and 12–15s need a responsible adult on the premises.
How many people can play?
Two to six players.
Is it good for beginners?
Not ideal as a first room — Space Pod is a 4/5 mission, so we’d recommend it for crews with at least one player who’s escaped before. First-timers who want a real challenge are welcome, but expect to work for the launch.
How long does it take?
Sixty minutes in-room plus a short briefing. Allow around 75–90 minutes in total.
Is it a private game?
Always — just your own group.
