Escaparium

Escaparium

Yearly tradition to do an escape room on my birthday and this year, I needed a room that was…read moreoffered in english, challenging, and able to fit 9 people. Escaparium had all of that! We picked the game The wizard four and the book of black arts which is for 4-10 players and they recommend at least 8 people to do this room. Everyone gets a wand to start that is used to activate various different parts and items in the room. The game master is also part of the story and if you need any help or guidance you can do so by calling out the name of the character. I love that they integrate it into the game, all other escape rooms I've done you just get a walkie talkie. It was a great experience and moderately challenging. I recommend! *Slight spoilers ahead* I also loved that they had an actor be a part of the experience, it added a layer of theatricality that I haven't seen in other escape rooms. Usually the person who lets you in the room is dressed up or is part of the explanation of the room but rarely have I seen them be in the room later on as part of the story. The only criticisms I have about the rooms is that when we solved a puzzle or unlocked an area, it wasn't obvious where the change happened so we needed to be reminded to look around because we had accomplished something and there was a clue to pick up but there was no announcement so we never knew if it had worked or not. There was also a puzzle that was completely in the dark so it was necessary for me to use my phone which usually is a big no for escape rooms but it was truly too dark to see. We wasted maybe 10 minutes trying to find this last clue so I believe we could've solved the room a lot faster had we known. There is no timer in the room but you can always ask the game master to let you know how much time is left. We solved it with 8 minutes to spare!

Terrible service The staff seemed irritated with children…read moreand had no patience Condescending everytime they were speaking with us Way too expensive for the poor service and experience I DO NOT RECOMMEND

We had plans for an escape room last year but unfortunately our plans had to change due to…read moreunforeseen circumstances, so we ended up going this year. L O C A T I O N Escape Masters is located in a building with other companies. We luckily parked on a side street and entered off the side of the building and it was right there. I N S I D E They do have a restroom, but that in itself was a maze/test to get to. Good thing they do have signs. When you do arrive, they ask you to leave your shoes at the door as it is winter in Montreal and mud/wetness on shoes can ruin their rooms. So make sure you have socks on. They have an area to place your jackets. E S C A P E R O O M When you arrive, you get checked in. They describe what you can/cannot do in the room in terms of rules. They explain there are clues on QR codes which you can look up without penalty but they do have a scale on the sign which tells your level if you do or do not use a clue. We did the Missing Agent's Apartment (Appartement de l'agent disparu). According to their site, it's average in difficulty. We had 4 in our group and I think you can totally do this with just two people. We finished in about 29 minutes. Yeah. Although it was still fun, the room basically had everything out and nothing really hard to throw you off or get you off on a tangent. As long as you logic your way through the game, then you can easily get through the room with time to spare. Some of the clues were a little lame and others were clever. O V E R A L L I think this was too easy for us. Did we still have fun? Sure, but not much of a challenge. Kind of wish we just bought another game while we were there though not sure if they'd let us as you have to reserve a time slot. Other than that, for an escape room, it was just eh. I've experienced much better.

DO NOT GO!! while on…read morevaca with my family we recently visited this escape room it was unwelcoming from the first encounter. After starting the escape room, we realize several things were broken for which we were then accused of tampering with. We have done many before and this was the worst.
