Got a lot of pent-up frustration? Go break some stuff and vent at THE FRAGMENT ROOM.
Unless you’ve been living under a wifiless rock, you would probably have heard about Fragment Room. Dubbed Singapore’s first ‘rage room’, the concept has been recently making the rounds on social media for its simple but irresistible concept: letting paying customers go into a small room to smash a crate of random junk to their hearts’ content with a wooden or metal baseball bat. Had an argument with your bae or feel like flipping the table at work? Here is the place for you to vent your anger without any harmful consequences. There are three packages available: Single ($38 per pax, which allows one ‘player’ to go into the room at a time and smash one crate of breakables within half an hour), Double ($75, which allows two players to smash two crates of breakables within half an hour), and, for those with serious anger management issues, the Annihilation ($220, where one player can smash unlimited crates of items for a full hour). I tried out a 30-minute sesh with my colleague and discovered the dos and don'ts of going to a rage room.
DO
1. Bring your emotional baggage into the room
If you've been repressing your daily frustrations till you're about to explode like a bottle of fizzy soda, head to this place pronto. The sparse space with two private ‘rage rooms’ is done up in concrete with harsh light tubes like the set of a cool MV.
2. Yell at a reasonable volume
