Le Taxidermiste [The Taxidermist]

The most amazing escape room experience you will ever do. Worth the extra money. JUST DO IT

There's a reason this is number 12 in the world for escape rooms. It was exceptional. I have only done 1 room that I enjoyed more than this, and I think that's just a preference. The entire experience is exquisite right from the start. I think the setting and decor were the best I've ever seen.

8/10 Intricate set design and immense world building elements. Just like the taxidermized animals, this room starts full of life but struggles to keep up that intro momentum, devolving into odd story line choices and producing a lackluster ending. This room’s strong suits are its tech, lighting, sound and set design elements. There are moments within this experience that I wasn’t all that sure fit within the game. There seems to be confusion whether or not the game is supposed to be serious and creepy or goofy and funny. All in all, it’s worth playing for the solid intro.

I had a truly extraordinary experience with *The Taxidermist*. The actors are exceptional—you can tell they’re completely immersed in their characters, and it really shows. Every scene is emotionally charged, filled with an energy that pulls you in and keeps you immersed from start to finish. It’s the kind of room where you forget you’re just playing a game because it’s so well done. But what really blew me away were the effects. Wow. We’re talking about a level you don’t expect to see in an escape room—revealing moments, effects that hit at just the right time and leave you speechless. The lighting is particularly impressive: not only does it create an incredible atmosphere, but it’s used to guide the player in a subtle and clever way. You never feel lost, but you also never feel like you’re being led by the hand. It’s really well balanced. What also really impressed me was how perfectly the puzzles fit into the story. Nothing is left to chance; every challenge you solve makes sense within the narrative, and that adds a depth you don’t often find in an escape room. Everything fits together, everything is coherent—you can tell every detail has been carefully thought out. I’ve rarely had such a well-crafted experience. If you’re looking for something that will make you feel real emotions while also giving your brain a workout, Le Taxidermiste is exactly that. I recommend it without hesitation.

Above a fantastic narration and decoration the outstanding actors performance make us laugth and emotional. So congratulations and deep thank you to the room settlers and the actors!

This room ranks high on immersion and production value, but it is outstanding in character development and emotional depth. I really felt for the characters in the end and loved the experience for it.

Remarkable opening (with a VERY fun actor interaction) and a remarkable narrative close. The game does a great job of immersing you in the world created by The Magician of Paris, and the set design is top notch. Things bog down a bit in the middle and the game isn't capable of keeping up the strength of the opening and closing moments, but it still features one of the strongest narrative sequences I've seen in an escape room.

The only game I've finished thinking "Wow, those costumes!" Definitely cosplay-able work here :) This is excellent immersive theater and character design that you won't forget easily. While there were some very fun moments and decent puzzles (don't expect top level puzzling here), this game suffers from a lack of signposting, an odd red herring that held us back for 5 minutes, and some stop-and-go plot moments - one of which could have been entirely skipped to leave for tighter, more rewarding gameplay.

This was a very unique experience, that I find hard to rate because there were both great aspects and things I didn’t like. I love the whole concept of Deep Inside. The set is beautiful, the actors are fantastic, especially their costumes. I like the story, but it didn’t flow very well, which was one of the main issues. It often felt like we were either stuck or being interrupted, and it wasn’t always clear what to do next. Don’t go to Deep Inside for the puzzles, go for the theatre.
