None of the mechanisms work and the staff don't pay attention to manually start them either. So basically you'll solve a problem and wait around and wonder for 20 mins why nothings moving even if you got it right from the start. Then you have to ask for a clue (which they won't give, it'll just be a condescending phrase that tells you to do what you've already been doing.) then after fighting with them for five min they'll realize it's their fault and manually start it, wasting not just our time but our money. 30 dollars a person is just ridiculous for what this is. If you want more fun lock yourself in a dark closet for 30 min and try to get out, you'll probably feel more satisfied anyways. I will say that we did ignore all of the red flags 1. The bad reviews online 2. The two groups that came out super pissed off before us fighting for refunds cause nothing worked for them 3. How the place looked So kinda on us but... Did this for group bonding and I will say we did bond pretty well over how terrible this was and how much we got scammed, so maybe if you want team bonding then this works for you idk? Definitely tests your teams patience....

Decided to check this place out after reading a bunch of great reviews. We did the Osaka High room…read morewhich was pretty good! So many rooms to go through that it made the experience well worth it. My only criticism would be the staff. We didn't escape the room and only had one section left to get through. When the staff came in telling us we were out of time, the normal procedure would be to walk us through what we had left. Instead, the guy said he was unable to finish a walk through because the next group had arrived. It seemed that he was unwilling to walk us through the remaining aspects because if he did, then he'd have to reset all the puzzles... I've been to quite a few escape room locations and never has this happened before, even if the next group had arrived.. Overall the Osaka High room was pretty cool, but I only wish I knew how it ended.....

Looks are very deceiving here!…read more Short: 2026 game rooms here are very decent! Must try for any skill level, you will be impressed. No combo locks, they have improved here since their starting years. Discount for back to back games. Long: My group has done almost 30 escape rooms and we're looking for new places to try. One friend had been here when they first opened and wasn't overly impressed. The front area does not look finished, and makes you wonder of quality in the escape rooms. It still has that look of converted office ambiance and needs a makeover for sure! Game rooms: Loved it! Though this separated our group; we broke out with time to spare despite the difficulty level, which makes one want another puzzle to make it harder, or were we just good at this now? Loved the theme, story line and quality of puzzles, no more combo locks or markers on wall but really well thought out puzzles. Really liked each room with their unique challenges. Lighting was perfect, no need for flashlights, music was right for room themes and couldn't hear the ones next to you. If you need a cheat, you push the wall button that calls your cell phone. The employees were friendly enough and waiting when we broke out. They sell a few canned beverages and have an automated camera for group photos you can email yourself. The rooms were great, will go back to try the rest. The front foyer ambience needs to be improved somehow, I think they splurged the budget into the game rooms. So don't let that fool you.

Impressive escape room, top 3 for gta! Group was loving this…read morenew place, will be back to try the other rooms soon. Highlights - immersive themed rooms, top notch decor - hints on prompt screen are clear and change with your progress - lighting was right/enough to showcase which area was being focused and dark on others not in play yet. - no key locks or combination locks - success photo stage is automated and complimentary - your stuff/jackets are kept in your escape room with you. Just ok - washrooms are down the hall from entrance, shared with building. 10 second stroll - they sell canned drinks and popsicles - no complimentary board games - no birthday discount/promos We broke out of Shipwreck and below zero. Below zero showed some scariness on their site. It's contained and you are safe, no live actors, nothing will touch you. The suspense was light and done well, pretty sure most can guess when near the end to expect it. My kids would have loved it! Bring an engineer friend for this one, puzzles are a certain style. Shipwreck is so neat! Puzzles are very unique and haven't seen some of these puzzles at other locations before. Would love to gush about them, the puzzle theme is just perfect! They won an award for this escape room and it's well deserved! All puzzles worked properly, timing was good. We did bump a door which tripped the magnets to open(fire safety) and called the attendant. She was really helpful in stalling our time while she reset it back as it was a necessary step. Rooms are big enough, lighting was enough for an older crowd. Bring reading glasses if you kinda need them, as that slowed a team mate down and stalled a puzzle solving situation. Check your friends first for colour blindness, pink or purple? Red or brown? You're kidding me it's orange?? Also surprised we didn't over hear much noise from other rooms. At another place, there was always screaming next door which got annoying quick. Top 3, give it a try, this is a good one

Location: Off of Leslie north of Davis. In an industrial ish…read morearea. It's above the pool hall and bowling alley. Parking: Suburbs so lots and freeeeeeeee Building: Old building, you go in the side door and it's upstairs. It's well signed. So you can find it easily. The Place: You walk in and it's like you are walking into a whole different world. When you visit you'll understand. There's a very stark difference between the building and Crypto! You walk in and there's the registrations desk, a bench, and chairs and a lock up for purses and cell phones. The Goods: They have 5 very thought out rooms. I've been 3 times and have enjoyed the experience each time! It's meant for 4 to 8 people. 6 is actually a good amount. Any less than 4 and there are games you can't finish because you actually need at least 4 people (although they change up the games so they may be gone now) The rooms are pretty good. Quality props, smart games and lots of technology mixed in to make the games and time in the room more fun. We came for a corporate team building morning before the Rona times and it was fun. We did a room and then did other team building activities in the entrance room. Catering came in too. I can honestly say its one of my favourite escape room places that I've been too. Cost: It used to be a bit cheaper now it's like 31 plus tax but it's quality so you get what you pay for! Will I be back. Um.... Yeah of course!!

Prior to entering, they go over everything we needed to know e.g. rules, where the help button is, how it looks like, how the game ends, etc. Great customer service!

I've been to a lot of escape rooms and gotta say, this one just didn't measure up. The cost was the…read moresame as most. I went on a Friday night so it was $25, which wasn't really worth the price. The room we did only had one room and was quite small. With three people in our group, it seemed that's all that would fit in there.

Had a lot of fun, and time really flew by. Will definitely come again.

Omventure is Toronto's premium escape rooms and board game cafe. They have 3 locations…read more(Mississauga, Scarborough, and Markham), where this particular location is located in Markham, near Woodbine and Esna Park Drive. The entrance of Omventure is somewhat hidden where it faces the back of a big building housing several different businesses (mainly restaurants). A great place for kids, teens, families, as well as young adults, the space houses a variety of escape rooms with different difficulty levels, where there is a suggested number of people needed per room. Depending on the difficulty of the escape room, you are given either 60 min, 90 min, or 120 min to solve or escape the room. You are able to book your escape room ahead of time, which is highly recommended. They do have family and kid friendly escape rooms available as well. Also, the use of phones is not allowed when you play the escape rooms - if you do decide to bring your phone into the escape room and use it, you can cause your time in the escape room to end early (they have security footage throughout the rooms). This location also has an expansive board game area with many large tables and many games as well as a cafe selling bubble tea and snacks. There is also a gaming area with video game consoles as well. My party of 4 stopped by Omventure on a Saturday evening where we had booked the escape room "Kingdom of Cats" (60 min, 3/5 difficulty, best for 3-8 people). Upon entering, you pay at the counter where you can get discounts if you follow them on social media or if it is your birthday. Once ready, your belongings are placed in a single locker and you are asked to watch a video explaining the rules of the escape room. Staff also provide you with a walkie talkie where you can ask for unlimited hints if you are really stuck. Afterwards, staff lead you to your particular escape room. My party and I managed finish the "Kingdom of Cats" escape room in the allotted time, although we had to ask staff twice as we were stuck with what to do next. This particular escape room required us to solve puzzles and riddles while paying attention to our surroundings. There was a bit of crawling as we headed to at least 4 different rooms. It may seem confusing where to begin at first when you are placed in the room but with teamwork and communication, you end up figuring out what to do to move to the next step. This particular escape room isn't scary, but it is kid friendly and fun. The 60 min really flew by just like that as we had to use our brains in order to figure things out. I haven't done a lot of escape rooms but this one was really nicely designed with lots of details throughout. Moving through the different rooms was pretty cool and finding the clues and working as a team together allowed us to escape and finish. After we were finished with the escape room, staff came to get us and took our picture on the stage where we could choose different boards to hold up. Nice touch as a souvenir of the fun time you had while you were there. For an additional fee you can also play as many board games if you'd like, but we decided not to. Overall, a fun escape room adventure for everyone! Would love to try the more difficult and scary ones next time. Staff were great and the facilities were well maintained where the rooms very detailed. Great option to have a fun time with family or friends.

Omventure is a fun spot for kids, teens, and young people to hang out, celebrate birthdays, or just…read moreget together with friends. Apparently it's been around for a long time but I never realize its existence until now! It's a bit tucked away at the back of the Diana Seafood plaza on Woodbine. You might need to loop around the parking lot to find it, but it's certainly worth it once you are inside. The space is fine and decently laid out, so even with multiple groups, it does not feel overcrowded. They offer eight escape rooms, four game console stations, plenty of board games, a photo-taking area with fun signages, an open beverage bar (non-alcoholic... probably), and lots of good-sized tables for groups. It is a great setup for parties. We booked a birthday package that included three hours of hangout time (board games, consoles, photo area), one large pizza, eight drinks, and a one-hour escape room for eight kids. Paper plates and cutlery were provided, and parents could relax while the kids played. Bring your own cake and other refreshments with no hassle. Well-manner staffs are helpful and easy to work with. At around CAD $430 including tax, it felt reasonable, especially since the kids had an absolute blast.

Still one of the top escape places in gta!…read more Decor: 5* They have talented artists that decorate the hallway, outside theme doors, and an immersive setting in the escape room. I'm surprised they haven't won more awards for their rooms or close contender bragging rights. Clue: 4* Some rooms have hints on a screen and follows your progress based on where you've progressed. Some rooms are a white button and they'll come into your room to assist you, no walkie talkies thank goodness! Lighting 3* They feel it is enough and the main focus clues are properly illuminated. We feel it's still too dark to read some clues like book titles and request their flashlight every time. Staff 5* All staff here over the years have been awesome! Friendly, passionate,mature and all game lovers themselves. Game puzzles 3*-5* Some are well done, clever and creative. no locks and combos and they progressed to top of the line puzzles. We did find not all were well timed and one finale puzzle just plain lazy as if they lost their puzzle maker. We've done almost all their rooms and even ones they've replaced. The Missing Will: so much potential at the start but with an unsatisfactory end! It's like they ran out of time or money as the puzzles did not compare. The ending was too sudden and we stood there having won but confused this was it instead of their usual wrap up theme. It's not scary at all but with a supernatural theme. It's also perfect for larger groups or friends with adhd. The roles you pick can help give clues and hints for solving your character puzzles aside from the main ones. This is also what makes it frustrating for us, as we want to clear all puzzles and it's not possible/necessary. Pathogen: interesting how the game can change based on your progress, choices and hints. We won with a minute thirty to spare. Bring a friend that reads everything as ours rushed before following orders, one that isn't colour blind, and one that isn't afraid to go somewhere alone. Not scary on this room. Noriko: scary theme! For me it wasn't the doll props and flashy lighting but the background music and special effect noise. I couldn't concentrate very well as I found that triggering and this had the darkest rooms with poorest lighting at their establishment. Tip: Bring a friend that is musical, don't bring friends afraid of scary movies! Crossroads: dark thriller vibe, liked the choice to choose a decision to effect ending, the changing atmosphere to fit the evolving story and ending was fun. My friends liked this room a lot and played it two more times after our win and couldn't break out with the other two groups. Lounge: only standing room now. No board games offered anymore. They sell canned pop and waters, have 3 clean washrooms. Photo board is self run at the entrance on a timer but terrible angle and background. $10 off for back to back games. Free game on ACTUAL DAY of your birthday.

I knew very little about The Imaginarium before I visited this week…read more I have to say it was one of the best escape room experiences I've had in a very long time. The Puzzles We ended up doing two because we had such a good time. We did the Amun Ra room and the Wilshire puzzle. They were engaging and well thought out and had us working together to communicate our findings and surroundings. The production of each room and immersiveness were great. Sometimes the puzzles didn't work PERFECTLY, but the staff were quick to correct it if things didn't work well which was rare The Service The staff were fantastic . All were friendly and wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible. The team was clear with the rules and expectations of each room. Follow the rules and you will have fun. The Value It's just under $40 for each person playing and each room with the minimum of 4 participants is a private booking. I really enjoyed this as I got to work with people I knew and could work off their energies as well. It's worth the money and it's time and money well spent. I'm looking forward to trying the Steampunk room as well as the upcoming Microsoft HoloLens room. I would 100% recommend this place and can't wait to go again. I can't recommend it enough!
