Launch a live quest under your own brand name!

Live quests (or escape room games) are very popular everywhere in the world. They offer a great alternative to cinemas, entertainment centres, cafés and bars. The main task of 2-4 players is to get out of the room they are locked in within an hour by solving logical tasks and using the objects around them. Players enjoy real adventures, see their friends and themselves in a new light. The company KOMNATA has now hosted about 2000 games and opened 2 game sites. 2 franchising outlets are working in Russia. The management company is headquartered in a small city in Russia. A game site brings the management company approximately 300 000 Rubles a month* (£6 000, if we base calculations on the Big Mac Index)*.

   You’ll get unique quest scripts!

The company founders were inspired by one of the scariest attractions in the world, located in Cyprus. KOMNATA quests were launched in 2014 in the city of Kemerovo where they quickly gained popularity. One of the distinguished features of the quests is involvement of actors. They turn every escape room game into an incredible performance. KOMNATA scripts make every performance unique. The target audience is large: anyone from the age of 15 can participate in the quests. KOMNATA quests are entertaining for both young people and people of the older generation.

   Realistic game sites distract players from the routine of their daily lives!

Next to profits calculation!

*Whether or not your business is successful depends on your own hard work. The price provided in GBP reflects the date when the calculations were made as well as the relevant Big Mac Index.

Prices in Russia and in the UK differ. For you to understand the potential of the business we used the Big Mac Index in our calculations (the cost of a Big Mac). A Big Mac consists of a number of goods (bread, cheese, meat and vegetables) so it could be considered a clear reflection of the national economy. Of course, it’s not the best way of comparing the pricing in different countries but it can give you a general idea.

As of January 2017 a Big Mac costs £1.78 in Russia and £2.99 in the UK. The difference equals 42.3%. This is why Bonplan raises the cost of Russian services for the UK by 42.3%.

Judging by the operation of KOMNATA in Russia, after 4* months of running the business you will host 150* quests a month. Average cost of a game is 2 000 Rubles* (£40, if we base calculations on the Big Mac Index*). If 150 games are held at your game site, your profits should amount to £6 000 a month*, considering the Big Mac Index. Bear in mind that you’ll be able to set prices for your customers yourself. You may want to set a higher price for your services in the UK. It’s up to you.

* Results are not guaranteed and depend on your hard work.

Important: we don’t take into account the number of small business for every 1000 people. However, this criterion is much higher in the UK than it is in Russia, which signifies a greater potential of the business.

Your expenses will include office rent, payroll, taxes. If you will be working on your own, you can exclude rental and payroll expenses from the list. However, there may be other expenses that you will have to take care of.

IMPORTANT! The cost of the package and all calculations are approximate. For your convenience all figures are provided in the GBP according to the currency exchange rates at the day of publication of this information. Real calculations will be made in the US Dollars according to the currency exchange rates that will be relevant at the day of the transaction.
