Booking

Other FAQ

  • Each classic Gameshow experience is 75 minutes long which includes 3 rounds and a bonus round. Timings may vary dependent on speed and special quests being unlocked. Please ensure your party arrive 10 minutes earlier than your start time to settle outstanding payment, sign waivers and to create teams/ names!

  • Yes! We allow pregnant people to compete in the gameshow. The only rule we implore guests to follow is to use their best judgement, there are some tasks that are more physical in nature in which teams can send an alternate player to play instead. At present we have had several pregnant women play with us this year.

  • Our minimum booking size is four people so we cannot allow bookings for just two people. You can also join our open play sessions and join with other prospective players. Minimum required amount of players for the session to go ahead is 4 players. In the event the session does not have enough players, you will be reallocated to the next session.

  • Don't need to bring anything! We provide everything for the gameshow! We would encourage you to wear what is comfortable, there are no highly physical tasks so everyday wear is fine to play the gameshow. Some challenges do involve movement and hence heels or platform shoes would not be advised.

  • Tailoring questions requires a lot of time to both research and build questions. Therefore tailoring is only added as a costed option of £150 flat per session. This can be requested via email at thearchertype@gmail.com. For general experiences we have a mixed bank of questions that we use for different groups

  • Of course! Each experience is played with a specific theme associated with your event, you can request your host to play a different set of questions to provide variety. We also plan to add an individual (every player for themselves) mode as well as a Team vs the House mode in the future.

  • We are based in the same unit as 'The Archertype' - Combat Archery Arena in Unit 10A of Universal Building. The venue is only opened by bookings only and we do not allow walk-ins. We sell bottles of water and soft-drinks on site at reception.
