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.
Le Jour du Jugement [Judgement Day]EliviascapeEscape roomIRLNo notes. Massive, ambitious, gorgeous, haunting, impactful. This game deserves all of the awards it’s been given. There are fun interactions with a live actor, there are puzzles that were incredibly inventive and the set design/sounds made you feel all the emotions of the story. This location is so good at ensuring at having a story being told through an escape room medium (as opposed to just lore dumps at the start) so every puzzle, every interaction, every set piece was in furtherance of storytelling. There are a few clunky moments where some signposting might help, but they are easily overlooked with how much else this room does phenomenally. I’m so impressed and this location was completely worth the trip. If you love horror, come here.
AbstractionEliviascapeEscape roomIRLIn terms of theme it was my favourite of the 3 (current) rooms at this location. The set design is beautiful and the narrative is weaved throughout all of the puzzles, the setting, and the random props around so you are very immersed of what’s going on (and importantly understand the story as you go through it). Interactions with the set and props that I’m really impressed with. Definitely a room worth travelling for.
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
Ctrl Alt RebootEscaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLDelightful from start to finish. If you played Rain Corp the set and props will feel familiar (and maybe lose some of the “awe”) but the nostalgia will more than make up for it. I think they improved on RainCorp in every way (more ambitious interactions, clearer story beats, puzzles that use the entirety of the space) so I was really impressed. As with Escaparium’s newer rooms, there is a narrative that you have to follow and actor interactions you must engage with. I found them all interesting and constantly made me smile. I think even if you are a puzzle-forward enthusiast this will still be found really enjoyable as there was more than enough meat on the bones to appease the puzzle folks and the people that just want to vibe with their favourite robot.
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 Tomb: Raiders of the SwordRevo EscapeEscape roomIRLThis is the most “I’m on an adventure” I’ve felt in any escape room. And for that, it has my love. It’s physical, it’s exploratory, it’s creative, all the things you expect out of Revo along with a set that makes you think you’re actually tomb raiding. The hint system is creative. There is a “health” system, but looking back I wish cared less about it and took more risks as it would take quite a lot for you to “die”. Big fan of Revo, if you’re looking for looking for a place that is more physical and “real” with your escape room, this is THE place to go to.
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!
