129 escape rooms
Our nephews are escape room converts too, so we tried this local game during a visit to New Brunswick. The room runs in both English and French and handles big groups, making it a solid bet for families and larger crews (we were a group of 8). The puzzle count is generous, and newcomers get a helpful safety net: a binder of clues with answers that only appear under blacklight. It's a clever touch, though the puzzles lean more script-heavy so expect to do a fair bit of reading. That's worth flagging if you're bringing younger kids; we'd steer this toward older ones. The best part is structural. Your group gets split between a prison cell and a wizard school, and the two halves have to actually talk to each other to get anywhere. The puzzles themselves have some lovely physical elements too, including a good deal of wizarding paraphernalia that will land nicely with Harry Potter fans. Overall: an enjoyable family activity with a few real surprises tucked in. Puzzles 🧩: 5/10 Set/Wow Factor ✨: 5/10 Story/Immersion 🔮: 6/10 Fun Factor 🤘: 6/10
