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!

We now seem to be traditionally doing escape rooms with our family every Christmas time and well…read morethis time we planned on doing, apparently, the #1 escape room in the world. Now that's a pretty lofty goal to be honest. So I was looking forward to seeing why it's #1. L O C A T I O N Though folks say this spot is in Montreal, it's not. It's in Laval. It's not a far drive (roughly 30 minutes). We arrived at this large building/warehouse. The sign where the name is isn't where the entrance is and you have to go to the left of it to enter the building. There are signs at the door to tell you where to park. Plenty of parking. I N S I D E You walk in and there are lockers to the right and on the left a coat hanging area which is essential during the winter months. There is a wall of board games on the side and folks inside I believe waiting for their turn or perhaps they're the actors waiting for their next guests to arrive. Lots of areas to sit. There is a large rest room for all sexes. It reminded me a lot of the Star Wars land bathroom in Disneyland. There's a large center sink area and a steam punk like vibe in there. E X P E R I E N C E - M A G N I F I C O We entered and went to the desk. Unfortunately the lockers were all taken but they took our purses and left them behind the counter and we hung our jackets on the coat rack. We paid for the experience which is definitely one or the more expensive escape rooms per person (Roughly $190 CAD which included tax). This specific experience is 2.5 hours long and it did take us the whole 2.5 hours as it's meant to take up all that time. After a few minutes or so we were handed a ticket to join the circus and also asked if we wanted the experience in French or English. I think for the sake of us getting through puzzles, English was best. Then we were told of what we can or cannot do and also letting us know not to laugh at the actors. I guess it's happened enough that folks need to be told to be respectful of people. Then off we went. I won't spoil what happens but here are my thoughts on the whole experience. Do I think it should be #1? I don't know. Do I qualify this to be a escape room? I wouldn't. I would say it's more an interactive experience with fairly straight forward puzzles with a linear storyline. The Good Parts: + Very immersive + Easy to follow storyline and puzzles + Help was given freely + Lots of activity The Not So Good Parts: + Not really an escape room + Not really on a time crunch + Puzzles are straight forward + Hints are pushed on you relatively quickly, if you're taking too long or going down the wrong path + No way to "lose" or "fail" + Not so great for folks who cannot climb steep stairs + One of the puzzles isn't really accommodating to tall people and folks wearing big boots O V E R A L L I think as an immersive puzzler experience it's quite a memorable one but you will absolutely take all 2.5 hours. I thought oh, that should be the max time....nope. We breezed through some puzzles. Maybe 2 or 3 were a little more time intensive or we were going in the wrong direction but it's due to the story that it does take that long. The hints were really pushed on you. You'll notice lights flashing or straight forward a voice from afar saying, it's not that, don't focus on it. In terms of puzzles, they weren't super challenging especially if you've done other escape rooms. There's no sense of "escaping" anything or a time limit. So that was a little bit disappointing. There's no way you can fail in this experience. If you can't solve it, they will give you the solution to move the story along. Was it worth the price? I think if you consider it like a musical or play and most tickets are roughly that in good seats, then you're basically front and center in the whole action and doing some puzzles, then maybe? Did I think it was the best in the world? I think as an immersive experience, it was definitely impressive but in terms of difficulty of puzzles, not so much though some puzzles were creative in making use of the space you were in. It's hard to recommend, but overall, it was a good time. Just not really the escape room experience I was expecting.

We played: Wardrobe for Sale Magnifico's Circus The Forgotten Cathedral Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen The Final Stop (And the now-closed Rain Corp) We ran these games with a team of six. For The Final Stop, however, I would strongly recommend four people for the best experience. This isn't just escape rooms; it's massive, cinematic-level immersive theater. Scale and Tech: The sets are absolutely MASSIVE, housed in a sprawling warehouse. Everything felt incredibly high-tech and meticulously built. You can tell they made a massive investment in creating a truly theatrical world. Magnifico's Circus (150 minutes): This room is one of the highest-rated in the world for a reason. The 2.5-hour runtime flies by. It's a huge, spectacular adventure where the actors are truly phenomenal--their passion for their craft elevates the entire experience to a new level. Game Lengths: The standard rooms are a satisfying 75 minutes long, giving you plenty of time to explore the huge environments and complete the challenges. Acting: For every single room, the actors were brilliant and clearly love their job, making the story and immersion perfect.
