This is not a listing for a single escape room. It is the opportunity to acquire the complete platform, technology, and intellectual property to become the franchisor of a remote-operated, unmanned escape room system, and to scale it into a multi-location, multi-revenue business.

The seller designed, engineered, validated, and documented the entire system, then invested approximately $230,000 building it. What is being sold is everything needed to replicate that system and license it to operators: the proven unit, the proprietary automation and booking software, the puzzle and build IP, the brand, and the full documentation package. The buyer steps in not at the starting line, but at the point where the hard, expensive build work is already done and the next phase is execution and scale.

The validated prototype (what exists today) A fully operating unit, the Orion V, is currently running in the Provo, Utah test market. It is built inside a clad 40-foot shipping container, fully decorated inside, and presents as a permanent themed venue rather than a container. It operates with no on-site staff and no manual reset between groups; customers self-serve through proprietary web-based booking and in-room game controls. Customer reception has been strong: 4.9 stars across 57 verified reviews. The unit currently takes bookings and, with essentially no marketing investment, generated approximately $20,000 in trailing-12-month revenue, evidence the experience works, not a ceiling on what a marketed unit can do.

The opportunity: from one unit to a franchise system The entire system was built to be replicated. Because the design, software, engineering, and documentation already exist, each additional unit is a fraction of the original investment, a build-out rather than an R&D project. The buyer can deploy company-owned units in high-traffic markets, and/or license the system to franchisees who pay an upfront franchise fee plus ongoing royalties, all running on the same unmanned, low-labor model. The buyer is not buying a location in Provo. The buyer is buying the right to be the franchisor of a new category of automated entertainment.

What's included in the sale (the full platform)

• The Orion V container unit, fully decorated and operational, currently taking bookings
• All intellectual property: puzzle and mechanical/electronic designs, custom control and booking software, branding, trademarks, and the Tempus Escapes consumer brand
• Complete replication package: Design files, operation training, software, BOMs, wiring diagrams, vendor relationships, and operating manuals, enabling additional units at marginal cost
• All tooling, spare parts, and build inventory in storage
• Marketing assets, customer reviews, social presence, and customer-facing website
• 90 days of remote founder transition support

Who this is for The ideal buyer is an operator, investor, or aspiring franchisor who sees the upside in scaling a validated, low-labor concept, deploying additional units, and building a franchise program on an established IP foundation. This is the validated platform foundation for a scalable business, not an established cash-flowing business today.

Deal structure

• Asset sale (the LLC and its liabilities do not transfer)
• Up to 20% seller financing available on negotiated terms
• 90 days of remote transition support included
• Retained-equity / partnership option: the seller will consider a reduced cash price in exchange for retaining a small ongoing stake, structured either as minority equity in the franchise entity or a modest override on system-wide royalties. This aligns both parties around scaling the larger pie and gives the buyer a lower entry cost while the seller participates passively in the upside.
