We did the *Last Resort* escape room with our family of four. My husband and I had done escape rooms before, but it was the first time for our teens, so we chose an easier room. The décor was great and the first room had a nice balance of challenge and fun. However, the introduction could have been better — it was just instructions on how the hint sy… Read full review

My partner and I did the Apothecary escape, it was very good. The room was so creative and the puzzles were fun. The wait room has board games to play, a bar, and free popcorn which tasted very good! The people running the escape were very I character, and the atmosphere was wonderful.

We waited about 10 minut… Read full review

It’s a great place for a kids’ birthday party! Our group of 9-10-years-olds had so much fun. The party room was clean, decorated, and had everything we needed. The staff was amazing - I especially appreciated that they took the kids to wash their hands after the escape room.

The clues were good and it is a nice way to discover the city. I would have liked a bit more fun facts about specific monuments or history. What I am very disappointed about is that we were a team of 4 people, so we bought 4 tickets like they recommend on the website, but there is absolutely no difference to buy only 1 ticket and share the clues with yo… Read full review
