We loved that room. Game started straight away no introduction and already got us in to the spooky atmosphere. It was impressive set. First 1 h we were a little bit overwhelmed and not sure where should we focus our attention but then got better and better! There were wow moments and things we never experienced in the escape room before! We recommend it while visiting Barcelona but be prepared to be spooked and tired! π¦π«£

One of the best escape rooms we have done. It has plenty of fun puzzles, it has nice atmosphere, it has suspense, it has excitement and action. The game starts right away which I like (no boring introduction, but make sure to go to the restroom before). We also enjoyed that they customized the game for 2 players. Afterwards nice chat with the gamemaster that seemed passionate about the game and escaperooms. Highly recommended!

At first, intense as f***, but then youβll get used to it. We were 5 and I think thatβs perfect for that escape, I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to everyone who loves escape games. There were some elements that I had never seen before in such a game, really impressive!

I loved it so much I bought the T-shirt. Iβll be honest, the first 45-60 mins are not great, but it really turns on for the second half and has some moments that made it worth it for me. The issue with the first ~hour is puzzle flow. You have a lot to look at and do, but itβs not clear where you should be spending your time which is frustrating because you waste time until a clue comes in. This is not the case in the second half in my opinion, so hang in there and know that youβre not alone. The spook factor, for me, was really good. Excellent tension, and a great set with thoughtful lighting. We donβt do a lot of horror rooms so our tolerance is relatively low, so YMMV. Try to have fun with it. I was grinning ear to ear for the last hour.

Husband and I booked a trip to Barcelona to sample some of the new TERPECA high ranking games. This game was a new entry at number 10 so we were curious. Oh my word. Go and book this game. Travel to Barcelona as soon as possible to play this game. This game has to be played to be believed. Behind each door was wow moment after wow moment - you will jump, laugh, and squeal with both terror and delight. I cannot praise this highly enough - everything about it is unbelievably brilliant. I wish that Men in Black memory erase machine thingies existed so that I could go and play it again.
A great variety of puzzles, tasks, challenges - the flow of the game was good with subtle signposting where required.
The set was huge and insanely realistic. The second you step foot through the door you are the protagonists in your own adventure.
The GM was phenomenal and really brought the story to life.

There is a cold start so go to the bathroom before you arrive! There are so many different elements to this game. Without giving spoilers, yes, the game is hugely interesting and different and so much fun.
Animal research facility gone southβ¦you are the B team sent in to find out what happened. You definitely do thatβ¦!

The constant tension and atmosphere makes the game much harder. There is a lot to do despite this.

The technology involved is fantastic.

We played as a 2 - it was very doable but more challenging in some respects.
Scary
Scary isnβt really the right word - tense is better. There are jump scares in normal mode but you are given plenty of warning.

Traveled to play K.O.N.G. after it was ranked the no. 10 Escape room in the world. YUP! This room was bananas (pun intended). we chose to play with jumpscares off. I would recommend if you are on the fence, turn the scares on. After playing, I can see the purpose. The set design is out of this world and there are so many delightful interactions. The game is long so make sure you use the restroom beforehand. All in all it lives up to the hype. Book it right now.

K.O.N.G Protocol by Barcelona Escape was the ninth stop on our escape room tour in Spain and a standout experience. Drawing strong inspiration from horror video games like Resident Evil and movies like the Alien franchise, the immersive atmosphere and sound design were exceptionalβespecially for fans of these genres. The puzzles were challenging on their own but felt even harder due to the tension and immersion the room creates. It is a new room that is only just over a year old, it combines well-designed puzzles with impressive experiential βwowβ moments. The large space was used effectively, enhancing the overall experience. Highly recommended, especially for experienced players looking for an intense and memorable challenge!
Scarier than expected.
Owner (Miguel) and game master were present at the end.

Very cool room design but I felt that we were often lost on what to do next with the puzzles, which was frustrating. There is a lot going on in the space, which included some very fun actor interactions and a few, kind of intense, physical aspects that I thought were exciting and enjoyable, but I can see where others might not. I think they are still developing this game and hope that clearer signposting will make for a better flow with the puzzles and an overall more satisfying game. However, if you are into set design and tech, it's a cool game to check out just for that.

This room has some of the best set design & atmosphere that Iβve seen. The game play is very task based with some cool special effects, unique moments, and even story twists. My group felt the game needed a bit more sign posting (although the lack of sign posting seems to be popular in the region), as well as a bit of added safety at some points during the game. But overall this room will be a new must-do for enthusiasts!
