Le Sentier du Maître-Constructeur [The Master Builder’s Path]

This game is simultaneously dripping with charm... and infuriating. There's a remarkable unique puzzle halfway through that I'd love every escaper to see and some silly searching and logic puzzles that hint toward a relatively easy room with time to play around in this fun world. However, there is a huge ramping up of difficulty at the end which was not foreshadowed by anything prior - some really good puzzles that were nonetheless finicky in their execution, occasionally obtuse in their clue-ing and demanding of some real brain power. We had so much back-and-forth with the GM in the last room that ultimately he threw open the door to walk us through the final puzzle in person (his explanations weren't "coming through" and he was visibly annoyed by our inability to understand the puzzles in the way he intended). Not the best way to remember an otherwise really great game (unfortunate, but, I assume, it was mostly our own fault...). We did point out a few tweaks which could have made things clearer and prevented the frustration altogether, but the owner seemed to take offense (and got visibly angry at us), which was not our intention. Escape rooms must be like children to designers and it's hard to give and take critques, but some beta testing and openness to feedback for both of these rooms would be really valuable. I'd love to come back for his future games, and I'd recommend these if you have a week in Montreal.

The set was entertaining and the puzzle flow was pretty good. There were a couple of puzzles that we spent more time on than we should have needed, but that was on us. I didn't quite follow the story but the room was enjoyable nonetheless.

This was a fun puzzle room. :) Everyone was able to contribute, & feel a sense of accomplishment.

Très beau décor immersif et énigmes vraiment originales! On a eu besoin d'aide pour terminer, étant débutants (moins de 10 salles à notre actif, 2 adulte + 10 ans). On a eu beaucoup de plaisir. Le seul point que j'aurais changé, c'est la musique trop forte à notre goût vers la fin. Sinon, c'était #1. Merci!

This is my type of game. All hands on deck for the masterpiece.

This room used puzzles I had never seen before in 100+ rooms. The theming was excellent, and it was a really fun room. There was a lot of tactility in each of the puzzles, and each gave a great sense of accomplishment when completed. Very highly recommend.

The set design was so neat and the puzzles were done well! Our group really enjoyed our time playing this room.

Coup de coeur pour cette salle et pour cette entreprise. Aucun cadenas, éléments de surprise ! Je salue l’originalité du créateur ! Notre groupe a eu beaucoup de plaisir, nous avons adoré l’expérience.

Une belle salle, encore une fois! Nous avions fait Disparu et avions été très impressionné par la créativité des énigmes et la qualité de la salle. Nous n’avons pas été déçues en jouant à cette salle-ci non plus. C’est fou comment ils arrivent à nous surprendre. Je ne voudrais pas trop en dire, mais encore une fois, la créativité des énigmes, chapeau! Je tiens à noter que l’endroit est très propre. Et bonne nouvelle, ils travaillent sur 2 autres salles qui sont prévues pour cette année (2024).

Très beau décor! Énigmes différentes et un effet Wow assurément !! Le jeu est toutefois plutôt linéaire à certains moments mais décidément une salle à visiter!
