The Essay and The Breviary [Outdoor]Garipalli - BolognaEscape roomOther A fun way to explore the city! Just like in Milan, the app sometimes glitches and isn't great—it takes a while for the chat to reconnect. We spend a bit too much time on our phones; it would be nice to do this with more physical challenges found in stores and such.
Escape Wood: Lumberjack [Outdoor]Future Is Nature - PlaygroundEscape roomOther A great experience—the concept and the idea are fantastic, but it’s really, really tough! It doesn’t follow the same logic as typical escape rooms (sequential puzzles and a linear storyline where you proceed step by step), but instead, multiple storylines unfold simultaneously. Unfortunately, this threw us off, and not understanding the mechanics left us a bit stuck! Still, it’s really fun, and I recommend giving it a try! Once you understand the mechanics, you can definitely complete it! I recommend doing it with a team of at least 4 people so you can split up if needed!! (The play area is definitely spacious!)
Dentro l'AbissoThe Gate ExperienceEscape roomOther A fun experience! They lock you inside this farmhouse, and inside there’s a maze where you have to complete missions (like in PlayStation games), trade goods with a merchant, and try not to get caught by the monsters roaming the corridors. All of this takes place in total darkness, except for a tiny red light that illuminates just 1 cm in front of you… unless you’ve managed to buy a flashlight… then it becomes more useful but dangerous, because that way they know where to find you!
Manhunt [Outdoor]Garipalli - MilanEscape roomOther It was a nice experience, great for exploring the city while having fun, though the app was a bit of a drag—it required you to be glued to your phone, and the connection kept dropping, taking a while to reconnect…!
Volta: Duel to the Last Invention [Outdoor]Garipalli - ComoEscape roomOther For an escape room that’s supposed to show you the city… it’s a bit of a letdown! It didn’t even show half of Como’s major sights, the app was a bit clunky, and there weren’t any interesting puzzles at all! I don’t recommend it.
