Poison

The traditional escape room, perfected. No Notes. Maybe my favorite game in Barcelona (definitely top 5 along with Kong, Tao, Jurásico and 11S). Loaded with puzzles - and there isn't a bad or broken puzzle in the joint. Every puzzle was fun, creative, logical and in-world. Quite a few "I've never seen" puzzles. The minimal actor interaction doesn't overstay its welcome and is played to maximum fun. The best merging of mechanical and tech-based puzzles I can recall, often incorporating both mechanical and tech elements into one puzzle, or incorporating new perspectives or mechanics into types of puzzles we've all seen before. Play it. (We did Tao followed by Poison, which are both off the same train line, which worked out to be a great morning of games).

Poison by Kadabra Escape was the thirteenth room on our escape tour in Spain, and it offered a solid, classic escape room experience. The Joker theme was well-executed, with great sound effects that brought his presence to life, making it particularly enjoyable for fans of the comic book or movie character. Some areas of the scenery delivered impressive “wow” moments, adding to the immersion. The focus was on puzzles, which were nicely connected and had a smooth flow throughout the game. We finished just 2 minutes before the 80-minute mark. The ending, however, felt a bit anticlimactic. Overall, it’s a well-rounded room recommended for both newbies and experienced players, especially Joker fans!

I was not terribly excited about this room going in based on content, but it quickly won me over with fun and coherent puzzles, solid interactions/teamwork, and some very cool sets. Also, there was plenty to do for a group of 4. Out of our 33 top-ranked games on this European tour, this one came in at #5 for me. After many games played with head scratching clues, it was joyous for everything to make perfect sense based on what is provided in the game itself. The first couple of scenes were fun, but not amazing, but the game kept building to its very cool conclusion. This is a must play in Spain.

Very fun room with an excellent flow, solid set design, great puzzles & proper signposting (which is something a lot of rooms in the region seem to lack). This room was easily a standout on my 40-room trip across Spain & Greece. Can’t wait to see what this company does next.

The standout of the game for me was the set of the last room. Everything up to then was nice but pretty standard fare, but the last room seemed really customized. The opening video did a great job setting the scene. The puzzles felt a little uneven, and succeeded in varying degrees in making sense in the game's universe. The ending felt weak - escaping felt unexpected instead of climactic (I think because the task right before it was so mundane compared to what we had been doing just minutes prior). Somewhat unusually, one puzzle requires a bit of outside pop culture knowledge. You can solve it without knowing everything, but I don't see what you're supposed to do if you happen to be a monk who's been living on a mountaintop for the past few decades. Like many games in Europe, it's a cold start - as soon as you walk in the door, you're in the game universe. The beginning space, however, was massive - I believe it's because they just have the one game and haven't expanded yet, but it was a real "Welcome to my lair, Mr. Bond" moment to step into a (small) dark warehouse size space with a single spotlight illuminating a table. We played in English with no problems.

This game is great. From the start you are immersed in the thrill of a good designed room. The rooms kept on going and going. The puzzles were all fun to do and weren’t repetitive. It is an 80 minute room and my group used all 80 min.

Muy buena sala

We escaped with a group of 5. I think a group smaller than 5 may feel they have to do the game hastily, which may take away from the enjoyment.

Loved this room! Amazing decor and be prepared to work hard!
