Our take
We like that it isn't a game where you sit and think: you move, you climb, you laugh. The points format makes you want another go straight away to beat your score. With 26 challenges, nobody gets bored, and even those who are not big on games end up getting into it.
26 cells, 26 challenges to take on as a team against the clock: a high-energy adventure game in Aubière, on the doorstep of Clermont-Ferrand.
Forget the classic escape room where you look for a key in a room. Here, you go through 26 cells one after another, each with its own challenge: physical, logic, dexterity. You form a team of 5 people at most, you push open the door of a cell, you have a few seconds to score as many points as you can, then you rush on to the next. A game lasts from 60 to 120 minutes depending on the option you choose, enough to work up a good sweat and have a laugh. It is open from age 7, so it works just as well with mates as for a birthday or a stag party. And when you hand back the vests, a bar serves soft drinks and beers to go over the scores.
Why we love it
- 26 cells, 26 physical, technical and intellectual challenges
- Games of 60 to 120 minutes in teams of up to 5
- Open from age 7, good for families
- Bar with soft drinks and beers on site
