Le Cirque Des Âmes Perdues Ver. 2025 [Circus of the Lost Souls]

Very beautiful scenery, but the puzzles were pretty simple and not very original.

This lesser known circus escape room in Montreal was a surprisingly good time, one that I enjoyed a little more than the rest of the family. Excellent carnival-themed decor, great tech powering the visual and audio effects, and a sound assortment of puzzles that align with the overall theme and story, including a couple of fun physical elements. The hint system seemed really cool but we unfortunately didn’t use it, though in hindsight we probably should have as we struggled the most in this one out of all 6 Immersia rooms we played on the day. The main downside is a relatively limited footprint — the overall size is fine but the way it’s designed restricted its ability to create the sense of movement or surprising new spaces.

My favorite Immersia game this far due to the sheer amount of charm and humor, aided by a great performance from our in-game GM character and my favorite hint delivery mechanic of all times. There’s a clear story that hits narrative beats, giving us a proper reason to keep solving puzzles, and finish on a high. Simply a delightful light-hearted game with accessible puzzles. One puzzle was a bit process-y, but the GM explained they usually take it out for two-player teams.

This was a fun game. Nice puzzles. Nice set. Solid design experience. One bite everyone knows the rules: 7.4/10

Huge appreciation for the GM, such a great job on the acting and making the room fun and welcoming! The room is very fun and charming and was definitely a pleasant and good stop on our trip. The set design is great and very fun

I thought this game was so charming. The set was immersive, the actor was great, and we laughed a lot in this room. I love a room that has enough puzzles for everyone to split up, work on some things, trade off puzzles, and come back to put it all together. This was exactly that for me.

I love this one. A fun escape room with a circus theme that works out very well to create some fun puzzles. The production value is very good as well.

Puzzles 🧩: 8/10 Set/Wow Factor ✨: 8.5/10 Story/Immersion 🔮: 10/10 Fun factor 🤘: 8/10 We were really impressed with Immersia and will be returning to play their other rooms. We had an absolutely fantastic game master, (same for our other game at Immersia) and their passion really shines through in the game-mastering. This was a fun room. Puzzles: Excellent - we got almost all puzzles without help and things made sense, we probably got two hints to get us unstuck. Set/wow factor: Excellent production value for its size. Immersion: Excellent - and GM/clue giving mechanism/interaction was well integrated. Fun: Very! We liked the variety of puzzles and it was nonlinear allowing us to work on different parts. Another example of where an excellent game master makes all the difference.

🎪🎩 I was SO charmed by this game from the set, story, clever circus-themed puzzles, and even the role of the live actor. Fantastic pacing all the way to the story climax. Possibly my new favourite Immersia game and just favourite in general. Shout out to our amazing GM, Priscillia!

A great hidden gem at Immersia Boisbriand. On our trip, unfortunately Project RESET was damaged from flooding, but we were able to play all 4 other games and Circus was my favorite of the 4. You are led by a character who introduces you to the story, and then sets you loose to start puzzling. The circus, as you'd expect, is full of many non-linear puzzles for multiple people to do at once, ranging from circus games to scavenging, to even basic math. At the end the game gets a bit more linear. What sets this apart is the theming, the atmosphere, and the narrative integration, which they really do well here. Our GM/actor also did a great job in her character, and there was plenty of room for silly banter. I feel like 4 is the perfect amount of people for this experience. Would recommend this as a don't miss at Immersia and any trip to Montreal.
