MagnificoEscaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLFrom an immersive theatre standpoint this is a phenomenal 100/100 experience. Loved every second. Go with 4ish people and you won’t regret it. From an escape room standpoint, I was expecting more puzzles for the money/time spent in there. But that is my only very small gripe based on the hype. Granted some of the puzzles were absolutely magical and the most “in theme” I’ve seen an escape room be. If you go with “just embrace the experience and fun” in mind, this is something that can’t be missed.
La Cathédrale Oubliée [The Forgotten Cathedral]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLJust wild. Was constantly surprised, excited, scared, and immersed the entire time. Another level compared to others I’ve done. This is a must do if you like scary escape rooms.
L'Île perdue de la Reine Vaudou [The Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLA pirate room that does everything I’d want a pirate room to do. Immersive spaces, puzzles that are quintessential pirate themed, well integrated tech. Super fun
Armoire à Vendre [Wardrobe for Sale]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLI was grinning from ear the ear the entire time. I think this takes the place of my favourite room. It is narrative heavy but incredibly delightful and surprising and a must-do if you are in the area.
Projet R.E.S.E.T. [Project R.E.S.E.T.]Immersia Escape GamesEscape roomIRLA very uniquely themed room that I think for those that have done a lot of rooms would find it fresh and interesting.
The Mysterious Miseries of Franklin N. SteinImprobable Escapes - WonderlandEscape roomIRLFantastic room. The interactiveness, tech, and a few puzzles haven’t really seen before in other places really make this one a standout.
Le Grand Immersia Hotel [The Grand Immersia Hotel]Immersia Escape GamesEscape roomIRLMulti-room, lovely attention to detail, fun story with multi-endings. Creative interactions with an actor. Solid puzzles. All in all a great time!
The Sorcerer's SecretCrypto Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLReally fun room from start to finish. I understand why it ranks highly on the TERPECA list. Great use of different types of tech, interesting storyline and characters, good world building and atmosphere. Enjoyable for our group with mixed experience levels!
The Steampunk ExpressThe Imaginarium: Playground for the Creative MindEscape roomIRLFavourite room at this location and probably favourite room in the Toronto-ish area? Difficult (but fair) puzzles, non-linear, lots to do, beautiful set, a few surprises, we had a great time from start to finish!
Volcano Views: Aerial ToursEscape From The 6Escape roomIRLI am in love with this company. All 3 of their rooms are phenomenal and use tech and atmosphere to their upmost advantage. Super unassuming location. One of my favourite starts to an escape room I’ve ever had. There was one very physical puzzle and one that was hard to see even if you were doing it correctly. But those small details pale in comparison to how much fun we had during the rest. Highly recommend
