Area 1: The Portal

Submlime storytelling. Different, and amazing.

Easily one of the best rooms around. The live acting was great, very very immersive, i didn't want it to end. Damian the owner even added in surprises for my friends birthday which was such a nice touch and a testament to Damian's commitment to the experience.

Amazing place, came here for a friends birthday, really fun, got scared and ran away 11/10 would recommend

The Portal is great with a very cool set. Immersive experience starts from the moment you arrive at the venue until the end! Puzzles are logical and flows well with some high-tech elements. Some unique story elements which speaks to the creativity of the room! Our GMs add a lot to the immersiveness of the experience! It is only unique to Area 1!

Immersive from the get go. Due to the location being an old paint factory as well as the employees dedication to character the overall experience was enhanced. Having a worker come out a retrieve you set a positive impression from the get go. The introduction was given in a unique way that helped to engage while also retaining information and staying in universe. In terms of the room, the atmosphere of the room was amplified by the sound effects and lighting. The puzzles were unique and interesting and required many different manners of thinking and acting out motions. Overall an amazing space and an amazing business.

The experience was fantastic from start to finish! The set and prop design were top-notch, with a lot of creative, unique puzzles and an atmosphere that kept us fully immersed. We really appreciated the staff's dedication; they were “on” from the moment we stepped into the car park and stayed in character all the way until we left, which added so much to the experience.

Project Immersive is not your average escape room, it very much lives up to its name. They have the perfect venue that lends itself to the world presented. The story starts from the moment you arrive and they have a very clever use of language to impart regular escape room information without breaking immersion in the world. Damian helped facilitate our visit, was very generous and lovely to chat to. For The Portal, our game master Tim was superb, effortlessly maintaining character and was on the ball to ensure our game ran smoothly. He was our first point of contact when we arrived and convinced us of the world we were entering expertly with a wonderful dosing of humour. The most suitable words to describe The Portal are beyond cool and next level. It has a great use of space, fun tech and very neat puzzles that make you feel like a scientist. There is a heavy focus on story facilitated by great voice acting and stellar sound design. The set and props were excellent. I wouldn't call this room scary but it promotes an uneasy sense of what's coming with great theatricality. We loved, loved LOVED this room. I just wish they had more experiences for us to try! This is the best example of a truly immersive escape room experience.

This was the first room i experienced at Project Immersive and it definitely sells the name of the venue! Had a great time and was a very new experience for our group of experienced players.

Such a well put together room and some amazing puzzles I’ve never seen or done before! Definitely in the top 5 favourites for me :)

This was a good escape room. Didn’t expect the experience to start in the carpark! I was very impressed with the storyline however I felt the puzzles to be underwhelming. This was still a good room overall. Would recommend others to experience this place.
