I really enjoyed playing the Enigma room at the missing link. We were welcomed by a very friendly lady and had an amazing time being locked up! They have some very original puzzles and beautiful decoration! I will definitly go back for the Jumanji room next time and if they keep making escape rooms, I will keep going back to play them! :D Thank you for the great time Selien!

Friendly and helpful people. Corona proof. Small museum but certainly not bad. Also attractions and messages for children that are visiting the museum. The kitchen and bakery are very interesting. Also explications about the legend of St Dymphna and how the system of mental ill works in Geel.
