Escape rooms in Madrid

“Unbelievable set, amazing actor performance and interactions, satisfying puzzles. It's easy to see why people like Magic Universe; it was my favorite of the 37 games we played on our Spain trip and one of my top games ever. Our Valazar(?) had some of the funniest and memorable improv skills I've seen, making her roles much more impactful than the script would suggest. That's not to say the game is perfect. I thought the ending was underwhelming, and would have loved another actor scene or two. Some puzzles didn't feel like the lived up to the grandeur of the set they inhabited. Having now played all of Magnifico, Magic Universe, and Monster Mashers, I think Magic Universe stands out for the best set and actor interactions. I still personally prefer Magnifico because I thought it had a better story, but all are very strong.”

“Fantastic set and atmosphere, though slightly darker than I would have preferred. Good use of lighting to guide movement and great cinematic scenes. Puzzles made sense and fit into the story well. Overall, I thought this game delivered well on both set and gameplay. While I'm not generally a horror fan, this is one of the few games that I actually thought wasn't scary *enough* - I came away thinking there were some missed opportunities for jump scares that would have enhanced the experience. One puzzle interaction was a little finicky - we did the right thing but nothing happened, and eventually the GM had to prompt us to try again.”

“Bites Motel 🚿 was a really interesting experience and definitely stood out from the usual escape rooms. The set design and atmosphere were beautiful, creating a world that was easy to get pulled into. While the structure felt a bit different from what I expected from an escape room, we still had a lot of fun exploring it. The puzzles had a mix of great moments and some less memorable ones, but the overall experience was carried by the amazing atmosphere and the fantastic job from the game master. A unique room that is still high on my list 🔪”

“Very immersive experience from the moment you ring the bell, to the moment you finish the mission. It is fun for 2 and appropriate for a family experience. The puzzles tend to be more on technological side which fits the theme nicely, but there are some traditional ones too. The decor is very well done and there are actors. It is light hearted investigation/adventure that it’s easy to recommend.”

“I'd think of this game as more tension than horror, but whatever you classify it as, it was very good. We constantly felt on our toes as we cautiously explored a set that felt larger than it was. The dinosaur elements were some of the best I've seen. Like many horror games, this was darker than I'd prefer, and there were some sections where I thought the intermittent light was much more annoying than suspenseful. After the game, we were astounded to find out that only one GM was running the game, acting and triggering everything by himself.”

“Puñalada was an interesting game. A unique gameplay mechanic really ramped up the stakes for us. Really great interaction from the game master and relentless teasing. And just when you think you know what’s going on… Lots of solo moments. Puzzles required teamwork and observation. A refreshingly well done game with a familiar premise. I will say the light was a bit low in places, but we got through it.”

“The Mine still holds up! A super dusty environment and setting. Set unfolded beautifully and props felt heavy and real. Game progressed steadily and we had a great time riding the rails. Puzzles were multilinear. Lots of searching, but well varied and clued. Holds up beautifully for an older game. Mijo and Carla were great hosts! Parking at this location is rough. Recommend parking further away and walking over.”

“Good set and decent puzzles, though we found it to be on the easier side and finished well under time. The middle section of the game feels pretty challenge arcade-y. A major part that I enjoyed was that our GM was also an enthusiast, and we spent a lot of time after the game chatting about the Spanish market and geeking out about escape rooms, which was somewhat unique on the trip - other GMs also cared and were excited, but this one seemed more passionate than most.”

“Really enjoyed the Interview experience from the moment you enter until the moment you escape it was very immersive. The GM played a great character. There are a lot of puzzles to enjoy and a lot of variety. I recommend to play this with 4 people, 2 can be a bit hard like it happened with us that ended up being 5 min or so overtime, but the GM was accommodating and we were allowed to complete the room. If you are in Madrid for a while be sure to pay Cubick Room Escape a visit for a quick Interview!”

“Amazing amazing experience. Superb performance throughout the game which had us both screaming at times (mainly him) and not one for the faint hearted but well worth facing your fears as great story and puzzles to go with it. Definitely worth the ride out from Madrid, really well thought out and clever, go on, you must try it”

“We have been doing escape games for a long time and this one captured our hearts completely, you can tell right away there is a lot of love and care put into this room. The decor of the room, the details and puzzle variety are all superb. If that wasn’t enough, the GM is also a lovely person that highly contributed for the room to shine even brighter. We played it as a couple, but it has all the ingredients to be a perfect family adventure. Looking forward to comeback to Madrid to play future missions when available. Highly recommended!”
