Your First Day With the Kanagawa Prefectural Police
The new game, Shippū no Tsuisō kara no Dassō (疾風の追走〈ハイウェイ〉からの脱出), whose title roughly translates to "Escape from the Highway Pursuit," is an original story set after the events of Fallen Angel of the Highway, the 29th Detective Conan film, which opened in Japan on April 10, 2026, and is still in theaters. It comes from SCRAP, the company behind the Real Escape Game brand, whose Conan collaborations have drawn more than 2.6 million participants since the series began in 2013.
Japanese anime news site Anime Anime sent its self-described Conan diehards to an early session and published a spoiler-free hands-on report. The framing starts at the door. Players file into a room marked "Traffic Control Command Center" and take their seats as first-day recruits of the Kanagawa Prefectural Police, the department at the center of the current film. The roughly 25 tables each seat a team of up to six, a "Bayside Map" of Yokohama waits at every station, and a mission briefing from the higher-ups kicks things off. The session the outlet attended was close to sold out.
A Runaway Bus, a Bomb Threat, and 60 Minutes
The scenario is pure Conan movie material. A self-driving bus in Yokohama gets hijacked by a virus and goes out of control, Ran is trapped alone on board, and a bomb threat lands on top of everything. Teams get a 60-minute time limit to trace the clues and stop the disaster; the full session runs about 120 minutes.
Along the way, players hear the movie's regular lineup talking through the operation: Conan, Kanagawa traffic officer Chihaya Hagiwara, teen detective Masumi Sera, and Kanagawa police inspector Jugo Yokomizo. The Anime Anime writer says the radio-style chatter made it feel like a real joint investigation, right down to the urge to scold a grade schooler for skateboarding through an active incident scene.
The puzzles stay tied to the story rather than sitting beside it, and the report is honest about difficulty. The editorial team fell just short of clearing the game, while a surprising number of teams in the same session succeeded. The post-game answer reveal apparently earns its "oh, of course" moments, and the key skill is not overlooking information already in front of you. There are also small gags tucked in for longtime Conan fans, and the report stresses that the game works fine even if you haven't seen the movie yet.
Venues, Tickets, and a Bus-Shaped Cookie Tin
The Tokyo run in Shinjuku continues through October 25, 2026, and a second Tokyo venue in Harajuku runs from July 9 to September 6. Osaka, Aichi, Hokkaido, and other regions follow, with SCRAP planning more than 40 venues worldwide, Taiwan included. Advance tickets are ¥3,700, or ¥3,400 per person for group bookings of up to six. A premium ticket adds ¥3,500 and includes the "Goddess's Quill Pen Set," a foil-stamped box holding a working quill pen, an ink bottle, and a bonus puzzle kit.
Venue-exclusive merchandise uses newly drawn illustrations. The lineup covers acrylic stands (¥1,700 each), T-shirts (¥3,800), random-draw acrylic keychains and can badges, puzzle-embedded clear files, and a bus-shaped cookie tin that comes with coasters (¥2,800). Every ¥3,000 spent on goods at a venue earns a random novelty clear card from a pool of ten designs, two of them secret.
Looking Ahead
Tickets are on sale now, and full venue schedules are listed on the official event site, which is in Japanese. Neither SCRAP nor the Anime Anime report specifies which overseas cities beyond Taiwan are part of the 40-plus-venue rollout, or whether sessions in languages other than Japanese are planned.
The movie itself is still drawing crowds. Fallen Angel of the Highway opened at No. 1 at the Japanese box office in April, according to Anime News Network, and its Japanese theatrical run continues. Viz Media publishes the Detective Conan manga in English under the title Case Closed, for readers who want to catch up on the source material.
