Note: This is an EXTREME experience. Please see Additional Details before booking. The catacombs of Paris are a popular tourist destination. The bony fragments of several hundred-year-old remains attract curious visitors from all around the globe. But lesser known to the public is what exists beyond the catacombs. A place so deep below the Earth’s surface, it has its own ecosystem – independent of the outside world. No one would expect so much life would exist in a place with so much death. And this is where things get messy. It is rumored that an ancient cannibalistic tribe lives beyond the catacombs. According to legend, These people feast on the flesh of unsuspecting tourists and curious teenagers. They perform black magic rituals and worship a figure resembling a jackalope. All of this is simply rumors. Nobody has ever seen these people…. Or at least lived to tell the tale. Meet Arthur, an Anthropologist from Jacksonville, FL, USA. Arthur became obsessed with the cannibalistic tribe of the catacombs. He flew to Paris determined to prove their existence. But that was several days ago. I’m afraid no one has heard from Arthur since. You are here because you are the best in your field. If there’s any chance Arthur is still alive, you are his only hope. I’ve arranged for a guide to take you down to the Catacombs, I don’t know how deep they’re willing to travel, but they can at least give you a head start. Your mission is to find Arthur and bring him home safely. Good luck on your voyage. You’re going to need it.

“Loved every part of this game!!!!! So memorable how it flowed and the puzzles ranged from simple task based to extremely layered but understandable, and the inclusion of the cannibal NPC was necessary for progression, which was an amazing addition in hindsight :)))))”

“Overall a very fun game with a premise that caught my eye!

If you are somebody who loves dogs, this is the room for you. If you are somebody who loves an interesting premise with great execution, this is the room for you. If you are somebody who likes to have fun, THIS IS THE ROOM FOR YOU! Definitely check it out, you will not regret it.”

“Super fun room with a very fun premise. The puzzles in comparison to Dog Days were harder (in my opinion), but nothing felt cheap or out of the question. I thought the premise was cool, and the execution of it really ties it all together. If you’re a sports fan, or even somebody that likes to have fun, be sure to book this game! I’d definitely recommend having a smarter friend come with you (if you yourself are not the smarter friend!). I’m excited to try out all of Prototype’s other games! We had Sophia this time, and she was great. If you end up having her, know you’re in for a good time 🐆”
