Servants of SleightThe Exit Games FLEscape roomIRLOur game master named Silver was such a special guy and made entire experience even better for both rooms. I can’t say enough good things about both rooms at this location. It’s worth flying in just to do these two, especially pins and needles. Silver so was so kind and patient and believable in all his parts he played and made entire experience extra special. We normally feel neutral about having a live actor but in this case it was key. The detail in both rooms and game flow was literally perfect. Pins and needles is now probably our number one or at least top three favorite game out of over 250!
MagnificoEscaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLNot only does it make sense why Magnifico is number one in world but it should have its own category bc of its uniqueness in all of the room categories. It’s unexplainable by words alone bc the visual impact this left on us will be permanent and in the best way. We flew in to Montreal to do escape rooms for my birthday and if we only did this one room while here, it would have been worth the trip. You have to see it to understand. I rarely enjoy theatre or live actors, especially in rooms, so I was very surprised how much I liked every minute of it. Acting was timed perfectly and still had very special puzzles mixed throughout and the actors didn’t overshadow the gameplay or decor or story etc as live acting tends to do in my opinion. Plus we had plenty of moments without actors. They only enhanced the entire experience and they were pros as well. I cannot say enough wonderful things to explain how over the top this experience was. So thankful and in awe of the creatives and minds that meet to make a place like this so special for others to enjoy their hard work and interactive pieces of art ! *Accessibility note for wheelchairs etc… Adding to this review after reading other’s viewpoints…I would agree that it can be difficult at times to hear the game masters over the speakers bc of other music and noise happening within the rooms, but that can be a good thing for people that don’t really want the nudges. I assume it’s a necessary protocol to keep groups moving along and they likely needed to nudge our family more bc of my father’s special accommodations with the wheelchair etc but they still allowed us close to three hours to complete the room! When we interacted with the actors in person they were very clear and easy to understand. The Escaparium team impressed us by how patient and kind they were while helping my father with an electric wheelchair as well as one they found in house for him. He is able to use a cane to walk on flat surfaces and take standard steps that aren’t narrow or steep with assistance. They were on top of things and maneuvered around throughout the game to make sure he didn’t miss the rooms that required more physical moves to get from point a to b. I’ll be forever grateful to them for doing this with a good attitude which helped my father have the best time and not feel like he was burdening them. Our situation was unique. This was our baby’s 83rd escape room and she has never needed accommodations as she either sleeps through rooms with noise cancelling headphones or we we hold her in a baby body carrier. She enjoys and watches every detail in all of the various rooms we have done and Magnifico definitely kept her attention…she was in awe!!

La Cathédrale Oubliée [The Forgotten Cathedral]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLSuch a good room, the set was better than disney level production etc. One of our favorites despite spooky/horror not being a favorite theme. The aesthetics and decor were on another level just like many of Escaparium games.

Hope EndThe Ministry Of PeculiaritiesEscape roomIRLOne of our top five favorite rooms out of a hundred. You’re immediately immersed from walking in the door. The decor was above the top from the entry and waiting room to the actual game room itself. The owners were also the actors and their skills and passion were unmatched. Especially clever puzzles. We are going to do the room a second time as escapees are able to switch up the experience upon returning.
