L'Île perdue de la Reine Vaudou [The Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen]

This was a really fun room. The special effects and production values were really good. I do wish the lighting was slightly better, but other than that, it did a really good job of transporting us into a set from Pirates of the Caribbean. Compared to Magnifico, Wardrobe for Sale, and The Hidden Cathedral, this one felt the lightest in terms of story and roleplaying. However, it felt very balanced in terms of puzzles and production quality. The puzzles were pretty good, but there were a few that had multiple steps where it was easy to miss something. These are just minor complaints because the overall room is fantastic and fun, but if you're looking for stories like their other rooms, this may not be the best fit.

This game had very solid and fun puzzles, and again the set design here was immaculate. The way to interact with your GM in this one was very funny. I will say that there are a lot of tripping hazards on this one. Beware of your surroundings as there are steps up and down that are kind of "hidden" (they blend in well) and there's a "tricky" area once you get to the 2nd room.

Escaparium operates on an entirely different level than any escape room I have done to date. This is something you need to experience for yourself and not let me ruin one moment of it with my review. I knew we were in for something special just from the way we were introduced to the game. I love that the GM came into the lobby in character and recruited us for the game! Even better was how the GM became our clue giver (an amazing effect that had me laughing for the first few minutes of the game). The set was beyond amazing. This was a set I would be perfectly happy to just walk through all of the parts and simply explore. It is simply that impressive! The puzzles are a really nice mix and have a little something for everyone. I will say, in the interest of everyone experiencing the whole game, save the logic puzzle for everyone. I chose to tackle it myself and missed out on three puzzles that I really wanted to see in action. The ending was great and I only had one wish that would have made it perfect. Absolutely amazing!

Of the 40 escape rooms I have done so far, this was my favourite.

This may be controversial, but this is my new favorite escape room of all time. I played most of the other Escaparium Laval rooms, and this one just stood out to me as special right from the start. The theme was fun, the puzzles were a great balance of thinking and coordination, I just absolutely love this room.

This will probably change tomorrow when I go back to this place and do another room, but this is the best escape room I have ever been in

A really fun game with beautiful set and amazing theming throughout. The most ‘in world’ element was the hint system was GENIUS. I have never left a game thinking about the hint system before, so that was a change. We played as a 5 and I would recommend a smaller group for this game. Overall a solid experience!

Potentially some of my favorite puzzles we did at Escaparium. The set was super cool and even the puzzles were very on theme. The actor/gm definitely did their job in getting us hyped up for this room. But I do wish their speakers for the GM were louder. I struggled to hear them multiple times. Also, the motors for one of the doors was really slow and definitely killed the vibe a little. But aside from that I thoroughly enjoyed the puzzles I did. Extremely piratey. I’d definitely suggest this room for families with tweens.
