La Cathédrale Oubliée [The Forgotten Cathedral]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLQuite possibly my favorite escape room experience. There are mind blowing aspects here that you will not see anywhere else, and I cannot recommend it more highly. The set alone is worth the price of admission. Add to that some great puzzles and truly shocking moments, and have an A+ experience. Just go. That’s it!
Ghost PatrolTrivium GamesEscape roomIRLThis is one of those rooms where they just do everything right! Fun premise, interesting puzzles, great set, and just a lot of fun overall. We did it with a group of 7, but I think 4 would be optimal for enthusiasts, or maybe 6 for those just starting on their escape room journey. There is also a lot of variance in the types of puzzles, so they always feel fresh. They also supply you with a very cool looking tool for exploration purposes, which a nice touch. All the details are just covered so well, and I had an absolutely fantastic experience!
RobotopiaOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLThis room is outstanding, great puzzles, awesome set, and it doesn’t take itself too seriously. I just had so much fun, and lots of different types of puzzles as well. We did it with 4 enthusiasts, which seemed about right. Might need 1 or 2 more for less seasoned teams. A must do room!
Hope EndThe Ministry Of PeculiaritiesEscape roomIRLA fully immersive experience from beginning to end. The puzzler difficult, but challenging enough. I always enjoy a delightful clue system, and that’s one thing this really . The set is a real star here, it sets the tone and does not disappoint! Also, the staff here is top notch. Great story as well. This is one of my favorite rooms!
L'Île perdue de la Reine Vaudou [The Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLThis room has some very impressive set pieces and fun puzzles throughout. A few unique ones that I’ve never seen before. I really loved how it’s not completely linear, so several puzzles can be worked on at the same time, which is always a big plus for me. Overall, it’s an impressive experience with loads of tiny details that really set an immersive tone.
UndercookedOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLThis room was a delightfully chaotic romp. Very fun premise, realistic looking set, and I was constantly laughing at some of the details here. We did it with a group of 6 enthusiasts, but I think 5 enthusiasts or 6 for a less experienced group would be optimal. A must do room, yes chef!
Treasure IslandBrain Games Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis room kind of blew me away, a whimsical romp with a very cool set and some clever puzzles and activities throughout. Tremendous use of space, and the signposting seems clear. We did it with a group of 4 enthusiasts, but I think a group of 2 or 3 could also suffice. One of the best pirate themed rooms I’ve done.
Armoire à Vendre [Wardrobe for Sale]Escaparium - LavalEscape roomIRLFrom such an unassuming name for a room, this was an experience that’s just hard to describe (but definitely in a good way!). I will say, it was a delightful adventure with some things I did not think were possible in an escape room. And the clue system was so fun that it made me want to ask for clues I didn’t even need lol.
