Expedition Sydney
An eerie outback-themed escape room in the heart of Redfern.
Overview
Sydney's love affair with escape rooms continues. The Expedition team, who were originally based in Canberra, spent eight months on their new venture on Redfern's Cope Street, launching it in late-2018. The room, titled The Forgotten Son, leads players on a dangerous trek through the Australian outback.
The room's historic 'high country'-theme follows a distinguished character from Australian folklore. Could it be the swagman from 'Waltzing Matilda'? Ned Kelly? Goorialla, the rainbow serpent? Whoever (or whatever) it is, the escape room promises to transport players from the inner city straight back in time to the door of an old tin shack — through which the eerie sound of a sobbing child can be heard. And that's just the beginning. While the description doesn't give too much away, it's certainly enough to pique our intrigue.
