Fun weekend activities often depend on one's interests. From organising a movie marathon to cafe hopping around the trendiest eateries, routines can be boring and mundane for the most part if we don't spice it up here and there.

So why not switch things up every now and again? Surprise your friends and family with a good scare for their dose of adrenaline.

An immersive experience that will probably leave sensitive souls a little traumatised, Hauntu boasts terrifying 60-minute escape rooms that'll have you dying to get out of. Including interactions with live actors as part of the scripts in many of the rooms, you'll need to choose your path to ensure your survival. Take caution with every decision you make though, as there are different endings as to what may or may not happen with each step you take.

The charm and appeal of Fifthroom is the diversity they explored during the COVID-19 lockdown. While other escape rooms on this list include an array of stories and state-of-the-art technology behind it, this escape room introduced an online escape game that gives you 24 hours to solve a mystery!

The biggest escape room to grace Malaysia thus far, MAZE is likely to test your skills more than some of the others on this list.

Mind-boggling and intensely satisfying, we'd highly suggest Breakout to those who're looking to test their agility in a considerably short period of time. From being handcuffed to a structure, or being trapped in a cage, your will and wit won't get you far without any teamwork.
