Shades of GreyLockwood ImmersiveEscape roomIRLA room where puzzles are fun and varied and the story and game mechanism takes it home. It shows that we don’t always have to chase the mega scale theatrics but rather something right.
When Shadows Lie: An All-New Outdoor Immersive Escape RoomSecret City Adventures- Black Creek Pioneer VillageEscape roomIRLThe puzzle context and storyline is spooky and cute. The puzzles themselves are moderate difficulty, but the outdoor walking at night really creates an immersive vibe. I love how it’s replay able with two separate puzzle paths and having played both I think it’s the right decision to try both. The cast and staff were supremely helpful and skilled - both when we had issues with our booking and also allowing as to join in the improv when we have finished the main paths, creating new content for us on the fly.
SleepDown the HatchEscape roomIRLI think this game is top tier. It was 3 hours that I wish that would keep going. Just like Molly’s game it may not be for everyone (added to temper expectations ;)), but for me and what I enjoy (puzzles, story, set design details, and flow) it was a dream.
Demise of the GricersEnteredEscape roomIRLIt was engrossing and exciting and a pool of adrenaline. I dreamt of Gricers that night.
Le Taxidermiste [The Taxidermist]Deep InsideEscape roomIRLThis room ranks high on immersion and production value, but it is outstanding in character development and emotional depth. I really felt for the characters in the end and loved the experience for it.
name Sur Les Traces Du Docteur Stone [Following in the footsteps of Doctor Stone]Sk-padEscape roomIRLThis was a super unique room. I loved it especially for weaving some physical challenges into puzzle solving. The owner Alain is the most enthusiastic and welcoming GM we have met (and the story behind the business is great too). Important note on physicality is that you should be in reasonable shape (think: ok with light scrambling during a hike, ok with walking on a bouncy house, ok with climbing the intro wall at a bouldering gym). It is not elite level climbing but having a baseline of fitness makes everything safer. My husband who is 33, with a desk job, and who doesn’t exercise in any notable way but is ok with walking 5 miles for a hike was able to do it. They also offer many many modifications and a physical presence in the room for safety so you should feel safe at all times. Transport from Gare de Lyon via the Transilien was simple and cheap, and then a 15 minute walk to the escape room.
Magic UniverseMad LandEscape roomIRLI cannot believe this is an actual experience. In addition to being a top notch escape room customer service was also impeccable (lots of hand holding for an English booker like me, and proactively reached out when I missed the fine print.) I would come back again, and again.

The Boring OfficeStained Hourglass Escapes LLC.Escape roomIRLA stronger contender for the best of Morty list! Added points for great story in a comfortably immersive setting.
總督諜影Meet Chances 覔見實境遊戲Escape roomIRLYou need a good command of Mandarin to understand the storyline and act out your character and interact with the many actors. It would have been a clear TERPECA contender if it had an English version. There are not only group puzzles that push forward the main narrative, you also get character specific sets of puzzles that push forward your character’s narrative. There are also hidden quests. A top experiences even though the puzzles were not super challenging, the experience was one of the most immersive that I have seen.
Hangover - Last Fling Before the RingMystery Rooms Delhi - Connaught PlaceEscape roomIRLGood room by 2017-2018 standards. The GMs didn’t reset the room properly which led to some confusion. Solid but not stellar.
