Botanica GreenhouseDaydream Adventures - BrimleyEscape roomIRLBeautiful room, fun/whimsical puzzles, and a great game master!
SleepDown the HatchEscape roomIRLThis is a puzzle dense game in the best possible way. The gameplay is smooth and puzzles are engaging so that 3 hours fly by and you never realize how much time you’ve spent in the room because you just want to keep exploring and playing more. The story is clear and engaging. Really an amazing room.
The AlchemistSherlockedEscape roomIRLThis room is a work of art, the set, puzzles, and solutions are all breathtaking. Highly recommended, especially for enthusiasts who like more fantastical spaces. Guido was excellent as our game host!
Escape the Wild WestEscape VeessenEscape roomIRLThis is a huge room chock full of puzzles. It was a lot for 2 people (but achievable) and the town of the game felt fully realized with a lot of whimsical moments. The game creator is one of the nicest you’ll meet, and I can’t wait to see what they’ll make next
The AsylumSilent TownEscape roomIRLI’m one of the more scared players going into horror games, and Asylum does have a very scary atmosphere. But it also strikes a strong balance with puzzles, and you always know where to go and have clear direction. Amazing room, atmosphere, and clear story.
Zoltar Spreekt [Zoltar Speaks]Escape Cafe HilversumEscape roomIRLI’m not sure why this is listed as a spooky room; it has a more fantasy/historical spin but regardless it is a world class room with amazing puzzles, unique story, and even a video game like aspect to it. Dennis was an amazing game master
Demise of the GricersEnteredEscape roomIRLIt really is like playing a video game in real life, and the adrenaline will keep you going throughout the experience. Gricers offers a very rich world as you explore it, and it was a lot of fun to learn more about the backstory and central mystery. Very, very active and physically demanding experience, but would highly recommend and it’s hard to think of another room that offers this kind of gameplay
IllusionEpic EscapeEscape roomIRLAmazing room. Even from the beginning it’s unclear what is the Illusion game itself and what is just part of the building. Unique and heartwarming story, as well
Monster MashersTales of Torchdale - Monster MashersEscape roomIRLI did this game on Dark(?) Mode as part of a 2-person group. This has one of the greatest opening puzzle sequences I’ve seen in an escape room, and the game as a whole shines in the set design, unique tech, and game master interactions (Yuri really made our experience special). Amazing game, can’t recommend it enough
Lost and FoundHotel Veloria [prev. Kamer 237]Escape roomIRLThere were times in this game where I felt like I was in a Disney theme park. The story is surprising, with intricate settings and high tech puzzles. An absolute highlight for our stay at Hotel Veloria
Expedition BermudaOne Hour LockupEscape roomIRLReally smooth and synchronized gameplay + use of tech and elaborate sets + puzzles. Very fun (and expectedly zany) game
name Sur Les Traces Du Docteur Stone [Following in the footsteps of Doctor Stone]Sk-padEscape roomIRLI’m hard pressed to think of another escape room that has this kind of layout, but it’s even more impressive that it seamlessly blends puzzles, exploration/climbing, and immersive environments. There are many surprises as you advance in the adventure that make it seem more and more like you’re in your own action movie. Would highly recommend (and this is coming from someone who is not very coordinated or in shape)
Le Grand Hôtel De ParisThe One EscapeEscape roomIRLThis is a horror room, but honestly not too scary (for someone who doesn’t exactly like horror rooms) and there are still a lot of innovative puzzles. It also offers a very complete story, with impeccable scenic design that really immerses you in the world of the hotel
Magic UniverseMad LandEscape roomIRLThis is an absolute must-play escape room. Amazing mix of narrative, puzzles, and theatre, and so many jaw-dropping moments (essentially whenever you move to a new space). I have no idea how this room was constructed but it’s something I’m going to be talking about with friends for a long, long time.
La Coleccionista [The Collector]Kalon EscapeEscape roomIRLAmazing mix of puzzles and a story that will make you rethink every step you took through the collection once it comes to an end. Highly recommend (especially for horror fans)
The DigParanoia Quest - BufordEscape roomIRLGreat atmosphere/decorations and some high tech puzzles! Thanks to our game made TJ for a great time
NightShiftNightShift - CruPont Legacy [Prev. Unreal Room Escape]Escape roomIRLI’m not the biggest fan of horror rooms, but Night Shift (terror mode) is really special. There’s a great balance of (actual) puzzles with scares, so you get both a fully-fledged escape room element and that of a haunt. There are also a few unexpected twists in the story that are very scary in the moment, but by the end of the game make for an excellent experience. You’re also never quite sure when the action you’re taking will protect you from a scare or not…
La Peluquería [The Hairdressing]The X-Door ValenciaEscape roomIRLI went into the room not sure what to expect in terms of the plot, but the story is surprising and entertaining, and the room itself did not disappoint (excellent puzzles, tie-ins throughout the room, acting, etc). Definitely deserves its spot in TERPECA!
La Tienda de Te dell Sr MiyagiDon EscapeEscape roomIRLThis is really a special escape room experience, with intricately crafted puzzles and decorations (even from when you first walk up to the establishment). There are also a few (welcome) surprises in terms of the story, and great humor/jokes throughout the game. Definitely of my favorite escape rooms in Spain.
The Candy ShoppePuzzleConnect Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLAll three PuzzleConnect rooms (Candy, Christmas, and Temple) are fantastic, though I really appreciated the unique theme of the Candy Shoppe. You can tell the room was designed with love, and it feels like a boutique experience with beautiful custom decorations and fun puzzles. We were celebrating a special occasion when playing the game, and the staff went out of their way to help us commemorate it
