Le Château du Supplice Éternel [The Castle of Eternal Suffering]
  • Escape room
  • IRL

9/10 Now THIS is an escape room for the puzzle lovers out there. I would easily rank this the best escape room game in all of Canada. Unbelievable puzzle elements, exceptional tech, absolutely incredible set pieces, tech, lights, sound design, and immersion. Numerous puzzles and hands on gameplay that I have never seen anywhere else. Sauve Qui Peut prioritized tactile gameplay. Every puzzle is hands on with immense satisfaction. The horror element isn’t much. It’s more for immersion and to set the mood rather than scare tactics. I put it at 6/10 on a horror scale. I see a higher rating on the TERPECA list once more people get to experience this wonderful gem of a game.

Was super excited after seeing the TERPECA ranking and it more than lived up the hype. The level of detail and production is off the scale, each of the actors play their role wonderfully, and it provides a spectacular and moving experience that won’t be bettered anywhere. Escape room meets movie production. A million stars

La Cathédrale Oubliée [The Forgotten Cathedral]
  • Escape room
  • IRL

The Forgotten Cathedral is my second favorite room at this location and across every room I've done, behind Magnifico. I can't praise the set design here enough. It is beautiful and larger than life. While the story isn't as present in the room, the room is incredibly cinematic. There is one sequence that felt like I was in a top tier movie. I really don't want to spoil anything, but even just the way this room starts feels completely unique and took us all by surprise. I will highlight that this room involves a lot of traversal, and we did have a lot more guidance than the others at the start because we were struggling a bit with the puzzles. Other than that, I think it is really immersive and has a lot of tricks up its sleeve.

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

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.

Absolutely amazing. More of a production than a standard escape room - as I believe everyone escapes every attempt. But the amount of production/storyline/atmosphere is just amazing. The best escape room I've ever been to. Very pricey, but the price is justified.

Armoire à Vendre [Wardrobe for Sale]
  • Escape room
  • IRL

Wardrobe for Sale might have been my personal least favorite of the 4 we did at this location, but I think it was one of the top rooms for others in my group. The set design is phenomenal with at least one jaw dropping moment. I also think this room had the most focus on the actual puzzles, and I like how there are lots of sections where you need to solve a bunch of things in parallel. My slight issues with this room were twofold. First, there were a few puzzles where we didn't actually know we solved them, or maybe they were broken. Secondly, I think the story in this room, while very important, was maybe not as interesting as some of the others and often interrupted the gameplay due to some slight pacing issues. To be clear, these are all very minor complaints, and these rooms stand above any others I've ever done. I'm just reviewing the rooms relative to the other 3 I did here: Magnifico , Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen, and the Hidden Cathedral

NOVEL and UNIQUE!! This escape room is a breathe of fresh air for experienced escapists!! I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners. I feel like this is the type of room that I will be thinking about for years. I love when I feel like I’m inside of a movie or plot.

I really like games where you feel connected to the plot. This one sucks you right in! Compared to other games in the area, the set feels weaker, but place this escape room anywhere else in the world and it would be an immediate top room.

Le Plan [Escape Plan]
  • Escape room
  • IRL

Escape rooms an immersive theater have always been intertwined genres, but I don’t think I’ve seen such a unique blend until I played Escape Plan. The game was both not an escape room yet filled with interactions that played like puzzles - with the difference being that these types of puzzles would be impossible without such a heavy actor presence. Out of all the prison break games I’ve played, this actually felt like being in a simulated prison break, from the hilarious banter to the massive set to some of the most innovative uses of gameplay I’ve seen. The cutscenes were awesome and super funny, which made downtime fly by when lesser games have fumbled exposition. I experienced a lot of sincere emotion from this game, from joy to satisfaction to anxiety to a little playful indignation at how we were treated in universe (the actors had incredible boundaries and absolutely did not make anyone uncomfortable). I encourage anyone who loves escape rooms as immersive narratives to play this game, with a more outgoing teammate if they’re nervous about the amount of actor interaction. It may not be for hardcore puzzlers, but it is truly a one of a kind, special experience.

L'affaire St-Onge [The St-Onge Case]

An excellent room, both in terms of the story and the decor! Very immersive—we were on edge the whole time! We played this room with four players, and we all loved the experience. Out of the four of us, I was the only one who had played the “Weekend at the Cabin” scenario, which turns out to be the one that precedes this one. Whether or not we’d played the previous story didn’t affect the game at all. Seriously, this room set the bar really high! Very well done!

En grève - Chez Mimi Cupcakes
  • Escape room
  • IRL

The theme/set is my favorite part of Mimi Cupcakes; it felt whimsical but semi-believable, like a toned down Willy Wonka. I liked the transition zone between the first and second areas. Puzzles generally felt good, though I think the second area was stronger than the first.

Incredibly fun game and venue! Very glad we booked this while in Montreal. For me, so far, out of 7 rooms completed in Montreal, this room has had the most satisfying puzzling. Add to that the smaller business set design, is awesome. Highly recommend!

How Do Escape Rooms Work?

Remember those point-and-click adventure games where you’re locked in a room and have to solve puzzles to find the key and escape? Those online games were the original inspiration for the live escape rooms you’ll find all across the world today. An escape room is an immersive experience where you (and your team of 2 or more people) are locked in a room with a series of puzzles for 60 minutes. To escape and win the game, you have to look for clues, solve the puzzles, and find the key. While most escape rooms only give you 60 minutes to complete the challenge, others may have shorter or longer time limits. Many venues are private rooms where you and your team are the only players. However, some places may pair you with other groups who booked a slot at the same time. And don’t worry about getting stuck, asking for hints on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. While the original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple aesthetic, today’s escape games often take you into a different world. Artistic set designs, secret doors, and unique interactive elements are all part of the fun. It’s like an adventure game that you can interact with in real life. But if you’re hoping to preview any rooms before you book a game somewhere, detailed images and videos can be hard to find. To keep the puzzles a secret and preserve the experience of seeing the room for the first time, most venues only offer a few photos or a short trailer about the room’s theme or narrative. The only way to know what it’s like is to go and try it for yourself!
