Escape rooms are for anyone who enjoys excitement, teamwork, and a good challenge. For groups of friends, they offer a fun and memorable way to spend time together. Families can enjoy solving puzzles across generations – children love spotting hidden clues while adults tackle the trickier riddles.
They are also ideal for couples looking for a unique date idea, or for bachelor and birthday parties that want something more adventurous. For companies and teams, escape rooms make excellent team-building activities, as success depends on clear communication, collaboration, and creative problem-solving. With different themes and difficulty levels available, there’s a room suited for everyone – whether you’re a first-timer or an experienced puzzle solver.
No matter the occasion – birthdays, bachelor parties, family outings, or corporate events – Pakotarinat provides a chance to step into another world, work as a team, and create memories that last long after the game is over.
Why choose Pakotarinat?
Pakotarinat was born out of a passion for storytelling and shared adventures. We believe every escape room should be more than just a set of puzzles – it should be a journey into a world where every detail matters and every team creates their own unique version of the story. That’s why our rooms aren’t only about logic; they are living experiences where atmosphere, set design, and narrative pull you in from the very first moment.
We design our rooms for all kinds of groups. Whether you’re a group of friends, a family, a bachelor party or a workplace team, our goal is always the same: that you leave smiling.
What sets Pakotarinat apart from many others is our focus on narrative depth and constant renewal. We are always developing new stories and updating old ones to keep the experience fresh and surprising. Every room is written and built from the ground up as its own unique adventure, with attention to immersive details like soundscapes, props, and set design.
When you choose Pakotarinat, you’re choosing an experience that combines excitement, creativity, and teamwork – and one that you’ll remember long after you’ve stepped back into the real world.
What our customers say about us
“The Bootleggers Curse room was one of the best I’ve played (maybe out of thirty escape rooms). Lots of interesting tasks and innovative solutions.”
“A real gem of escape rooms! I played both rooms in two days. The service was friendly and flexible, and best of all, both rooms were skillfully crafted logical escape games, where the puzzles followed each other smoothly. The small and inventive details in the interior helped to immerse you in the game’s plot.”
“We visited Magician’s Workshop with two adults, two 12-year-old children and a 3.5-month-old baby. The room was of a suitable standard for both adults and 12-year-old children. Booking the escape room was easy and when we went we felt welcome and received clear instructions. We had our baby born in the summer with us (age 3.5 months at the time of the visit) and it was easy to take him along. We can warmly recommend it and will definitely go again.”
“Absolutely amazing customer service, excellent game (well-built, was challenging enough and we got hints when needed because we were not experienced escape room players). The employees were also wonderful how they throw themselves in. The place exuded a good vibe and spirit. I highly recommend it, we will gladly go here to test another game!”
“Great service and great games! We initially planned to play just one game, but ended up playing them all, and it was definitely worth it! If you’re going to an escape room, I definitely recommend going here.”
“We were a group of 5 in the Pirate Ship room, and it was a really well-executed and fun game! There were plenty of tasks and you could use your brain in a variety of ways. The instructor was also great! We’ll definitely be back.”
“I definitely recommend a visit to Pakotarinat in Joensuu if you like escape rooms or have ever wanted to try one! The staff is really friendly and helpful. My group played this witch-themed escape room and it was awesome! Several rooms to progress through before escaping, clever and creative puzzles to solve, themed props, beautifully decorated rooms and the opportunity to ask the game master for tips. My group enjoyed the visit and we will definitely visit again! :)”
“Interesting, well decorated and quite successful game in terms of atmosphere and decor, with plenty to do. You can also adjust the difficulty during the game. A plus was the abundance of props, which allowed us to create a really impressive team photo. Apart from the exciting story, the game doesn’t have any scary elements, and even the six-year-old on the team didn’t find it too scary. Highly recommended!”
“Good and clear introduction, otherwise friendly service. The set was nice. It was also nice that you could choose the difficulty level of the game, so even beginners had a chance to get through the game.”
“I went to Pakotarinat for the second time – earlier in the summer with the kids in the Magician’s room and now with a group of friends in the Bootleggers Curse. Full marks for both rooms! I’ve been to about 20 escape games and Pakotarinat definitely had the best rooms! Inventive puzzles and great decor <3 ..now I can't go to the pirate ship anymore. More rooms please!! :)"
