I'm an escape room writer from Israel, with nearly 500 rooms under my belt (the "nearly" part will be fixed in a couple of weeks). Currently spending all of my free time writing reviews of the games played in the Spain tour, because of fear of Heiner!

Blue Experience: Entrenched

BLUE EXPERIENCE: ENTRENCHED by Experiencity in Madrid

While making your way through the trenches during world war 2, you face a few challenges – puzzles, tasks, and a challenge that isn’t usually as apparent as it is in this room – disorientation. Do you remember the third task from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, with […]

A Lost Case

A LOST CASE by ActionHouse in Madrid, Spain

I don’t think that anyone will disagree with me saying that every time a room attempts to do something new and unique, it is always welcome. And in this room, they definitely did go for a very unique storyline, and a very unique role for the actor. That being said, […]

T-Virus Apocalypse

T-VIRUS APOCALYPSE by Madness Toledo, Toledo, Spain

Mad Mansion or simply awesome. They have the ability to create impressive and immersive rooms, from a plethora of different genres, all full of great puzzles, and at least a few moments in which we need to stop, and just take in what we see in front of us. This […]

The Mistery Of La Sagra

THE MISTERY OF LA SAGRA by Illusion Escape Room in Fuenlabrada, Madrid, Spain

Underworld

Underworld (Inframundo) by Amaze in 60 in Boadilla del Monte, Madrid, Spain

While this room does share elements and concepts with horror escape rooms, the creator is actually tried to go for more of a funny experience, nearly attempting to parody some of the horror tropes.  The horror aspects in the room are very nice, and at least for one of them […]

Mutant X-perience

MUTANT X-PERIENCE by Action Room Escape in Barcelona

I love rooms that do something different. I love them so much. As the industry grows, and more and more rooms are created, there are a few types of rooms that emerge. Some try to do the same but better, and some try to pave a new path forward, into […]

Blasphemia

Blasphemia by Cindy Box in Sant Fruitós de Bages

Every time I enter a horror room, I have a small wish – maybe this time it’s location will be a park full of cute puppies, or maybe an ice cream store? And in this case, my hopes came true! And by “true” I meant “absolutely wrong”, as we entered […]

Sulaco

Sulaco by Estellar Trek in Sabadell / Spain

The last thing I said to the owner of Sulaco before leaving the venue after the room was, with all of my heart, “go to hell”. That was probably the first time I’ve ever said that to an owner, and he truly deserved it. In the most positive way possible.Spaceship […]
