What one booking does to the rest of the night
Friday, The Asylum. A group of four takes 19:00. Four seats are still free, but the slot closes to everyone else immediately. Only that group can add more players, up to eight.
Pricing rules that fill your quiet nights
Weeknight rate
Monday to Thursday priced below the weekend. Same room, same hour, a reason to come on a dead night.
Book early, pay less
A lower rate for booking two weeks ahead, so your calendar fills up early instead of on the day.
Take the whole room
All eight seats in one booking and every ticket drops, not just the last few. It stacks with the weeknight rate.
Came from another room
Price the second room by which one they played first, so a good first game turns into a second booking.
Guests pick a room, pick a time, and pay in 60 seconds
Browse available rooms with difficulty ratings and player limits. See real-time availability by date. Pick a slot, enter the number of players, pay with Apple Pay. Done. The system enforces min/max players, applies buffer times, and confirms instantly. No phone call needed.

Every player signed before the briefing starts
Each participant signs their waiver at home on their phone. For groups, the organizer shares a link and everyone signs independently. When all 8 players walk in, your manifest shows green across the board. Skip the clipboard. Go straight to the briefing.

Escape room software questions answered
From room scheduling to corporate team building: everything you need to run tight schedules.
The best escape room software handles room-based scheduling with buffer times, enforces min/max player limits, and collects waivers before arrival. wakesys does all of this plus group claim links, so corporate groups of 20 can self-organize without you chasing individual signups.
One person books and receives a shareable link. They send it to their group. Each member opens the link, claims their spot, and signs their waiver, all from their phone. You see real-time status: 6 of 8 confirmed, 2 waivers pending. No spreadsheet tracking.
Yes. A company books 3 rooms for 24 people. HR gets one link to share with all employees. Each person claims their spot and signs their waiver independently. You see a dashboard showing which rooms are full, who's signed, and who hasn't, without 15 back-and-forth emails.
Set a buffer (e.g., 20 minutes) between each session per room. The system automatically blocks that time for reset. If Room A has a 60-minute game with a 20-minute buffer, the next group can't book until 80 minutes after the first group's start. No manual calendar management.
Most escape rooms require liability waivers. With wakesys, every participant signs digitally before arriving, either during booking or via the group claim link. When all 8 players walk in, your game master checks the manifest (all green) and goes straight into the briefing.
Yes. Set a minimum party size per room. A room with a minimum of 4 will not accept a booking for 3, online or at the desk. Capacity sets the ceiling, the minimum sets the floor, and both are enforced at checkout rather than left to staff to catch.
Yes. Each room has its own name, description, difficulty level, capacity, pricing, and schedule. Guests browse rooms, see difficulty ratings, check availability, and book, all in one flow. You manage everything from one dashboard.
Couple walks in and asks what's available. Your staff checks the iPad. Room B has a slot in 20 minutes for 2-4 players. Tap to book, collect waiver on the spot, process payment. The room shows up on the manifest instantly. Takes 30 seconds.
Not if the room is set to exclusive. Turn it on per room and the time slot shows as booked out the moment one booking lands, no matter how many seats are technically left. The group that booked can still add players to their own booking. Leave it off and remaining seats stay on sale to anyone.
wakesys is free for all of 2026. Room scheduling, waivers, POS, and group booking are all included. No per-booking fees, no per-player charges. Compare that to FareHarbor (6% per booking) or Bookeo ($40-$120/month). Pricing after the free period is confirmed in writing before you go live.
Yes. Set a weekday rate that applies Monday to Thursday and leave the weekend at full price. You can also set an early-bird rate for bookings made two weeks or more ahead. The rules combine, so a weeknight booking made well in advance can land on your lowest rate without you touching anything.
Set the threshold at the room capacity. When a booking fills all eight seats, the lower rate applies to every ticket in it, not only the last few. The count is per room and time slot, so the threshold has to sit at or below the room capacity to ever apply. It also combines with the weeknight rate, so a full room on a Tuesday is your cheapest ticket and your fullest slot.
