We had so much fun! I can imagine it would be a great activity for a family day out. The puzzles were good fun and the host was super engaged and was really helpful. We were on the back foot for a while but in the end we finished first coz we really are ThoseGurls! Great fun.

This experience encompasses everything that I want out of escape room. Adventure, discovery, story, mental challenges, big physical challenges and above all surprise elements. IF YOU CAN, AVOID SPOILERS AT ALL COSTS! The ‘surprise moment’ in this game was one of the most thrilling I’ve ever had. I think people who have moaned about it are just suffering from ‘whatabout-ism’. All of the safety measures and disclaimers are in place for this moment and it’s SOOOOO cool and fun. The story of the game was heartfelt and exciting. The puzzles had a decent challenge to them while the physical elements of the game made a huge impact on the enjoyment of the experience. Overall one of the best escape rooms out there proving once again that Quebec Province is a leader in the escapes industry globally.

Not the strongest room in this venue by any stretch but still a good fun experience. The puzzles were varied and well thought out. I think the game felt very low stakes in the story so I didn’t feel too propelled through by the game, music or vibe. All that to say it would be a great game to play with an experienced escape room family group.

Very simple generation one game, however still a great time. The puzzles are simple but effective and I would imagine that most guests are still satisfied by the game. I would have liked the set to be a bit more thrilling, it’s a big space and it could have had a bit more love to it. We had a nice time though.

This game was so unfun. Badly designed without the guest in mind. The puzzles were unintuitive and clunky to play. All the solutions, while they were explainable but very tenuous. However our games master Ash was truly a stand out of the experience, really helpful and friendly. I would avoid this game and it’s AI art at all costs.

LOOOOVED THIS GAME. Such an innovative and cool concept and design. I can see why this is making waves in escape room conversation. We had so much fun, it was our final game in 3 back to backs after a long weekend and it kept our attention the whole time. Super impressed by it. The puzzles aren’t too challenging or unique but the packaging is pretty special.

I was exhausted when I played this game and it was still so so fun. I think our tired energy meant we weren’t as switched on as normal but that didn’t impact our enjoyment, only our game play. The actor (Jeremy) was so great and such a fun addition to the game, he really elevated the experience. I loved the variety of spaces and the dynamic puzzles.

LOOOOVED how creative this game was. So vibrant and exciting from the off! The puzzles were challenging but not hard providing space to be excited by each set change. The timer paused during narrative breaks and I thought that was a great touch. It could have done with a slightly more ‘wow’ ending, but the game was so fun it’s hard to complain.

A good fun game with some lovely set design. It flows well with lots to do and paths to solve for the first 3/4. However the final few puzzles were less fun than I would have liked. Fun to be given a choice at the end.

We had a fun time, the hosts were lovely and the room was well themed. I like a medieval theme and this room really delivers on that! Unfortunately the tech in the game isn’t reliable, which was disappointing. I had this problem on my last Jigsaw visit too. One of our props wouldn’t even activate for the host. I would recommend some serious attention to the reliability of the sensors.

We had so much fun! As two enthusiasts it was a really great room to blitz through. Some challenges and great ah-ha moments. Perfect game if you want to scratch the escape room itch. The check in host Mia made the whole visit so great, really appreciated it.

Ready Set Go Adventures - Toronto

A really great addition to the ReadySetGo company. The design was really cool and the puzzles for the most part were really exciting to play. There’s a lot to get through and the live actor element definitely makes it all the more challenging. I think it’s a really great room though and definitely one of my favourites from this company.

We had a good time. It’s not really my kind of theme to be honest, but still there were some great moments. Compared to King of the Bootleggers this was a much simpler set up. I am surprised it is a recent TERPECA nominee. Also we were on the last puzzle and the actor didn’t help hint us through it which left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. I think they like to keep the escape rate low for the game.

I had heard a lot about this game before playing so I was very curious about it. It’s definitely a good game and I was really impressed by the set. However there was a level of fun missing that I can’t quite put my finger on. Still found though and the set is genuinely gorgeous.

We actually had so much fun in the game. It’s not the most creative experience as it’s obviously been made to be put up in any location. However the puzzle theory was pretty solid and it had a really fun ending with a really cool piece of tech. We had a great time and our host was SO great and she made the experience really fun.

Omventure - Mississauga

We had a really fun time in the game. Probably my least favourite of the Omventure games I have played. I think a lot of that was linked into the final puzzle of the game was a logic puzzle which steered more toward being laborious than fun. Other than that though there was great variation in puzzle design. The game is designed for a lot of forced collaboration which was good fun!

By far it’s the best Trapped room I’ve played. Such a creative and fun concept. The puzzles were entirely linked into the theme and set which I really enjoyed. It could have stood to be harder, I felt like we needed at least two more puzzles. However we had a really great time!

Good fun game, spooky and creepy. There were a few puzzles which didn’t feel the most intuitive but it was still a really great time.

I really really enjoyed this game. It was so much fun and a nice challenge on top of that. The set design was really interesting and fun, they’ve used the space so well to create the illusion of movement. By far the most fun game I have played at this venue! Overall I would really really recommend this game. Especially to enthusiasts who are looking to sink their teeth into a new challenge.

We had a lot of fun in the game. The puzzles were very separated from the narrative and weren’t diegetic which was a shame. However it was really fun experience with a lot of great payoff moments. I loved the scale of the set and how available it was from so early in the game.
