Escape rooms in Montreal

“I will start this with just: Thank You! Thank you so much for everything and everyone involved here. This was not just an escape room, this was a story, an experience, a memory that will not only last a lifetime but also make me wish to experience it again in the future. This is what the meaning of a "Labor of Love" means. The dedication of everyone involved and the insane amount of talent that the people here have is mind blowing. I hope you all keep having an amazing time running this room and that many more people have the chance to experience this. Thank you!”

“Escaparium Laval is just on a different level. It's easy to see why this room is rated so highly. We really enjoyed this room. This was our 4th room at this location and, just when you think they can't come up with anything new, they do. We really liked the set. Really awesome. The puzzles were super fun. What we like about this room vs. others at this location is there didn't seem to be another group ahead of us so we got to go through it as fast as we wanted to instead of being slowed down. That made it really fast paced and fun. This is another must-do room.”

“New #1! We’ve done 85+ escape rooms at this point including some great ones like Ctrl Alt Reboot at Escaparium Laval and this is by far the best room we’ve ever done. Love love love love. Absolutely worth the drive if you’re in Montreal for escape rooms. We came to Montreal to do escape rooms, only able to fit 9 in during this trip. This was the only game we played at this location. After this room, I wish we would have done another room here to see what it is like. This is definitely a must play. I almost wasn't going to book it since it is in the opposite direction from Escaparium and Immersia, but it is 100% worth it. And I'm really glad we did. I literally felt like I was trapped in an evil castle. I lost all sense of time and space. The puzzles were awesome. And what makes this better than Ctrl Alt Reboot. That is more of a live theater experience with a couple puzzles. This has actual puzzles and they were great!! It also had THE coolest escape room thing that we’ve ever experienced. I don’t want to spoil it. But WOW! Unexpected and so fun!! I wish I would have booked more rooms at this location. We’ll need to come back. HIGHLY recommend.”

“They told us we are the new record holders for this room. So that is cool. We loved this room. The theme is awesome and the set had a special feature that we have never seem before and also a super unique puzzle we have never seen before and I doubt we will again. One of the characters is also super cute and really well done. Very creative and I really enjoyed it. Because we got out so quickly, we had lots of time to talk with the gamemaster after the fact and he showed us around the set. It's fantastic. So over the top and awesome. The puzzles were also alot of fun and on theme as well. Definitely another must-do at Escaparium Laval.”

“Ctrl Alt Reboot has it all: innovative puzzles, an immersive set, and a terrific storyline. The only downside is if you are doing the room with people who are very experienced, you only need three people to do it. I found myself feeling completely useless in my group of 4, since the setup simply didn’t require an additional person. However, I can step out of my experience and still acknowledge this room is OUTSTANDING. The intro was extremely overwhelming because people were talking so fast my anxiety went through the roof. However, once the humans left, we were left with impressive puzzles and room design. I felt my brain working in this room, but they didn’t compromise on the immersiveness.”

“This set is beautiful and magical. Such an incredible attention to detail. The characters are great and captivating, the story is great and the room has a decent amount of puzzles that can be handled in parallel by a team. Beautiful set and wow moments.”

“Immersia’s most distinctive game and one of the most unusual and memorable experiences of our Canada trip! The set isn’t big but the decor and live actor do a great job of exuding a futuristic virtual reality vibe. The game stands out for its bold and innovative concept and design, which could be polarising and frustrating for players. We were admittedly a little confused and disoriented at first but quickly settled into a groove and found the puzzles and flow a delight, with the nostalgic final puzzle being one of my personal favourites!”

“When planning our trip to Montreal for escape rooms, I could only pick 8 rooms. This was the 9th room on my list... but after we completed St. Onge's Case and loved that one so much, I asked if they had this room open to do immediately afterwards and they did, so we got to play a 9th room after all. This was a super fun room. The set is straight out of The Grand Budapest Hotel. I mean, it felt like we were on the set. The puzzles were fantastic. Lots of things to work on. Fun character interactions without being character driven. I would definitely recommend this room. I'm so glad we got a chance to do it.”

“This game was unlike any escape room we had played before. It was such a clever and unique experience, requiring players to put themselves in the shoes of prisoners and having to use practical solutions and street smarts to escape. The fact that the set, the atmosphere, and the acting were all top-notch made it easy for us to really lean into the game's design. I can see why it will likely be polarising as it has no traditional puzzles and relies heavily on interactions with the actors, and that in turn depends on people's ability to immerse themselves in the story and really focus on thinking of it as a real-life situation. For our family at least, this was one of our most enjoyable and memorable escape room experiences to date.”

“This is a relatively new room. Only a little over 1 year old at the time we played it. So there weren't many reviews when I decided to play this room. But I'm so glad we took a chance because we LOVED this room. There is one scene in the room that is just so cool. It felt super immersive. This room is a sequel to another room at a different Immersia location that we did not do. It was not a problem at all. I understand there are a few callbacks to that original room, but not know what we were missing out on was not a problem. It was obvious what at least 1 easter egg was, but not a big deal that we didn't get it. Some good non-linear play, especially at the beginning, which is nice. We all had something to work on. Fun puzzles. Cool tech. I would defiinitely recommend this room.”

“Just a great time from start to finish. Everything from your first interaction with the host to the moment you step foot out the door is part of “escape room experience” and all in character/in-game world which just extends that level of immersion in a way I haven’t seen elsewhere. Our host was hilarious and the room really utilized the (smaller) square footage to its fullest. Puzzles were solid, intuitive yet challenging. The physical room and puzzles are good but it’s creativity of how to make a unique immersive experience that makes this place really shine. Would love to see more places extend their level of immersion in this way, but of course would require talented actors to pull it off effectively. One downside is we had questions about the escape experience and couldn’t really ask based on everything still being in character (or at least we didn’t want to break immersion) If you’re downtown Montreal do this room, you won’t be disappointed.”

“I absolutely loved it! For those who grew up in the ’80s, there were plenty of elements to spark a bit of nostalgia. It was well-crafted and enjoyable. It requires good communication (especially at the beginning) and a keen eye for detail.”
