In the heart of Escaparium Laval's massive complex nestles a mysterious monument classified as a World Heritage Site, forgotten for several centuries: an ancient cathedral. Escaparium was built around this characterful building that once served as a sanctuary for a now extinct cult. Archaeological excavations and restoration of the monument have been underway for several years now. This allowed us to make major discoveries on the history of the cathedral and on a certain cult that we name, "The Order". Artifacts of rituals dating back centuries have been found and are currently being investigated. Come take the guided tour through the myths and legends of a forgotten past. A trip which you will never forget. (this is an escape game)!

They say you never forget your first…..Catedral was the first room I did at Escaparium. It set the bar HIGH. I think this room may have my favorite set design of all time. A ridiculous amount of puzzles, fun storyline, and incredible experience all around.

My favorite escape room experience, if it can even be called that, by far. The grand finale is the most climactic and ultimately satisfying one I can remember. An absolute must-do.

Gameplay

Almost without exception the puzzles were woven into the storyline and made our group feel as if we were living in the story.

Atmosphere

Cinematically unparalleled in the escape room world. Amazing eye-candy and effects.

It was the best escape game I've done so far! The decor are completely insane, some puzzle are challenging and always satisfying. It's meanly a linear escape, but with lots of teamwork require which is very fun.

I HATE SCARY ROOMS But. This one was fun! It feels more spooky and mystical with like elements of demons. You don’t have to worry about too many jump, scares or loud noises. The set is very fun and I really like the intro. It feels slightly more believable than other demon or ghost like rooms I played before.

The set was absolutely beautiful and very immersive. After reading many reviews for this room, my only real "complaint" was that I wanted it to be scarier.

Gameplay

Puzzles were not all that complicated, and the room was very dark so things were difficult to see at times

The perfect blend of spooky meets adventure. It was unbelievable. I ADORED this game so SO much. I honestly was not expecting to be so blown away. The theatre moments were so folded into the experience but never at the expense of the game play. Solid puzzle design and truly breathtaking set design. I felt completely pulled into a new world. I also feel like they have allowed the players to explore and enjoy every element of the set which was amazing. All of the surprises just left my jaw on the floor and the immersion was next level. I couldn’t recommend this game enough, I’ll be thinking about this game for years.

Gameplay

The perfect blend of Adventure and Spooky. I thought it was really well pitched, without going too far into the horror genre. I had SO much fun, I was constantly impressed and in awe.

Atmosphere

This space was a marvel. It took my breath away at every reveal. I don’t think I have ever been so impressed and blown away with a design before. The ‘theatre’ moments within the story are so perfectly placed without halting the flow of the game.

Customer service

As always the hosts at the venue are always great.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Yes! I honestly think one of the most incredibly immersive spaces I have ever been in.

Story

I think the story was ever so slightly too complicated. I think it could have done with being paired back ever so slightly to make it easier to follow the objective.

Difficulty

Hard

There was a really satisfying amount of puzzles to get through. I felt like there were a few that were harder to get through but I enjoyed the challenge.
