Neil Parker comes from a long line of money and power, but little is known about his family's origins. The tyrant's totalitarian regime is very careful with the few details that are told about his ancestors: great battles, a lot of honor and some betrayal... Unsubstantiated rumors say that they were part of the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy, and other stories date back to Genghis Khan himself. But the reality is quite different. The Parkers' origins were humble, and like many stories worth telling, it began in a Tavern. Delve into the story of Neil Ferdinand, the true ancestor of the City tyrant, to discover what started 400 years ago and is still alive in the Tavern of The City Escape Room Barcelona.

This game deeply impressed us and its one of the best we have ever played. Its a very big world we discovered and everything felt real. The set design is amazing. We felt so many emotions when we discovered the world. A must play game and the best game of our escape room trip to spain! I felt in love with this game!

Huge room with so much to do, incredible sets, and lovely, talented live actors. Solid mix of puzzles throughout, but the main draw is definitely the level of immersion in the set and with the actors. As others have mentioned, the poor sound quality in the final room sours the ending quite a bit, and made some final puzzles a little frustrating, but overall the experience is so unique, and at two hours you really feel like you get your monies worth.

Great sets and story. They were actually so cool they felt distracting from the puzzles. I got annoyed by the puzzles because the scenes were so cool and when we got stuck I was extra annoyed because it pulled me out of the amazing immersion. The actors were so great!!! They really added the final touch to everything.

A must-play if you’re in/near Barcelona! A level of detail and set design that sets it apart as one of the best escape rooms we’ve played, and the live actor interactions add so much fun and laughter. Shattered at the end, but didn’t regret a second of it!

It was an amazing set. There were live actors and for us maybe it was too much actor interaction in the beginning we just wanted to start solving puzzles as soon as possible. We played 2. We were few minutes over time but they let us finish the experience which was great. Maybe 3-4 people would be better for some puzzles. There was on part of the game where it was difficult to communicate with each other or hear the game master. There was not emergency button. We do recommend to visit, but maybe not during a summer as it was very hot inside and we were very sweaty. Great experience especially if you like pirate themed games!

A mind blowing experience from start to finish that was masterfully cared for by the game masters. When we thought we reached our highest level of amazement, we were exposed to an even higher level again🤯. Our experience featured costars Uri and Ines with a small guest appearance from Lucia and we can easily say these are award worthy stars! They were funny, helpful, encouraging, and never broke character. The puzzles were themed perfectly and flowed really well. Some puzzles really challenged us and I have some mild mobility issues so I was a bit nervous but I was able to make it through everything! So amazing, 10/10 would recommend time and time again. I wish I could relive it over and over again.

We were really enthralled in the scene, the puzzles, the sounds, etc… it was tough to understand or grasp what else was happening in the story anymore! I’m sure it was great but we had trouble absorbing it

As the game unfolded from one beautifully designed set to the next, my internal "wow" kept growing. This game has it all with very fun actor interactions, great puzzling, sets that will blow you away, great sound and music, and a surprise ending that took my breath away. This is a must play in the Barcelona area. When it was done, I was so sad that we didn't have time to play their other games. I would love to see what else these creators have dreamed up.
