Wow. We were a team of 4 with over 30 rooms played together, and this one completely took us by surprise, in the best possible way. It was highly recommended to us by Michael (owner of House of Twisted Minds), and what a phenomenal recommendation it turned out to be. We had the honor of being the first team to play the game in English, and it was flawlessly executed. The translation never broke the immersion, and the entire experience felt natural, seamless, and polished. From the very start, The Crimson Recipe wraps you into its world. It’s a masterful blend of environment, story, and puzzles, each supporting the other beautifully. The sound effects and lighting build tension and atmosphere at just the right moments, and the narrative is deeply present throughout, never taking a backseat. The owner and GM, Remco & Marcus, are the heart of the experience. Not only were they incredibly warm and welcoming, but they also took the time to chat in-depth about the design, their passion, and the escape rooms they’ve played (you can clearly tell they’re enthusiasts themselves). That love for the craft shines through in the many clever references and hidden easter eggs scattered throughout the experience. We left still processing just how good it was, this one sticks with you. Absolutely recommended for all players, regardless of experience. This is a room that deserves a place in TERPECA, and I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see it rank in 2026. A true standout.
