One word – a spectacle. This word in escape rooms world is usually associated with horror games and great acting, which are not properties of this game – yet, for me it deserves to be called one like no other game I’ve ever played. I would categorize this game as […]
Every now and again I come across a room where I just want the timer to stop so I can discover and enjoy the space, play with all the props, try on all the hats, and relive my childhood adventures. The Lost Island of the Voodoo Queen was one of […]
During our Escaparium marathon we played Wardrobe for Sale which I had heard good things about. We start the game by being shown down a rather empty hallway with just one item… a fairly mundane wardrobe. We were then invited to inspect this nice, but unremarkable, piece of furniture and […]
