Ctrl Alt Reboot

Rain Corp was an excellent game, but Ctrl Alt Reboot blows it out of the water. As soon as we stepped into the opening set, we were in awe at the sheer scale of Escaparium’s set design. Furthermore, while Rain Corp sometimes struggled to match the scale of the gameplay to the set, Ctrl Alt Reboot was a massive game to interact with. Between the props and their corresponding effects, we had a clear impact on the imposing world around us. Everything around us sold the fiction, especially the actor interactions, which brilliantly blurred the lines between machine and human. Every so often, I would just marvel at the sheer feat of not only attempting but pulling off a game like this. If you have some down time, take in the set - there’s a tone of detail and so many awesome Easter eggs to Montreal escape rooms both past and present. Escaparium has made another masterpiece.

CAPTIVATING set. Gameplay is weaker, but the story is SOOO fun. If you are doing a bunch of games at Escaparium, use this to be the one when you are the most tired. Maybe make it your last game of the day? It requires probably the least brain power since your GM guide you throughout most of the story. It’s definitely more linear. However, the set design blows a lot of the other sets away. They definitely spent a lot of money on it and it will just wow you from start to finish.

I really liked this room. It was a cool concept with a lot of amazing elements. The music was very loud and due to the need of hearing instruction, the loud music made it really hard to hear. Overall it was really fun

Top 10 room for me. So many cool elements and a spectacular finale.

Escaparium does it again with Ctrl-Alt-Reboot. What a fun experience and we love Loomo of course. Couldn’t have survived without his assistance. Fun puzzles, great set and overall a great time.

Just when I thought Escaparium couldn’t surprise me any more they surpassed my expectations. A clear objective sends you into the game and then you are thrust into the most impressive set I’ve ever stepped into. Lomo was the star of the show, so funny and a great interaction throughout the game. I will say I didn’t enjoy how much Lomo is used to propel you through the game. I wished we’d had some more independent play. Otherwise such an impressive experience unlike anything else I’ve done and tackles a SCIFI theme effortlessly. I don’t think I have ever played such an electric finale to a game. Would 100% recommend.

Technically speaking, one of the coolest rooms I’ve ever done. The set and prop pieces are amazing. The mechanics of the game are also super. It had robots and technology that I’ve never seen executed this well in an escape room before. It definitely fit the sci fi theme very well. The puzzles are also really well themed. My only issue was the cursing. This room definitely could have been family friendly if they took out the music. There was no cursing at all by any actors or set pieces except for the music and when you hear it, it just feels really out of place and disconnected from the game. If the actors or robots were cursing too and it was more throughout the game it’d make a lot more sense and fit better to me. But on its own it just feels extremely out of place.

That was the best room I’ve ever done… just pure wow
