About

The Keeper and the Fungus Among Us

“Every 1,000 years, the evil Paxillus awakens from his Mushroom Prison in Toadstool village. In order to protect themselves, the villagers pray to the Guardians for a hero. The Guardians hear their prayer and send them The Keeper. You must guide and help the Keeper through this world of Fungus and save the villagers from this maliciously funky fate.” — read more

This is a live avatar game all set in dioramas.  The characters are all puppets that you will guide through the game.  There is also music and original songs throughout.  It is just as much a show as it is an escape room.  Imagine if you took bits from video games like Zelda or Monkey Island, threw in original music that reminded you of Rocky Horror Picture Show or The Labrynth, has beautiful sets and puppetry, and you put it all into a blender...

This is what comes out.

Fun, Musical, Epic Escape!

Ever wanted to be turned into a Mushroom? No? Well, same for most of the magic land! unfortunately, an evil power is about to do just that!

We had a great time helping the Keeper along on his epic journey to help save the world.

An absolutely amazing host, musical numbers, fun guys and fungis, what more is there to want? If you haven't played it yet, book it now!

Headlock Escape Rooms: The Keeper & The Fungus Among Us (Play at Home)
This game is a true delight! With original music and songs, beautiful set design, great puzzles and a wonderful host – this will likely be unlike anything else you have ever played. We don’t do awards, but if we did, this would be a winner! — read the full review from Review The Room
Headlock Escape Rooms: The Keeper & The Fungus Among Us | Review
There’s quite literally nothing quite like this on the market, and believe us – we’ve played a lot! It’s a cross between an adventure video game, a Dungeons and Dragons one shot campaign, a musical like Rocky Horror Picture Show, a hand puppet performance, and a kids TV show from the early 00s. If you like any of the aforementioned media, you’ve got to book this. Seriously, you won’t regret it. Go in with an open mind and an ambivalence towards mushrooms. — read the full review from The Escape Roomer
