Missie Undercover

MISSIE UNDERCOVER by The Suspect in Deurne / Antwerp, Belgium

In our latest trip to Belgium, we played this unusual game. This game falls under the category that in Spain is called “hall escape”. It is usually a game for somewhat larger groups, there is no classical room progression and the game takes place typically in the same space, sometimes […]

Zoltar Spreekt

Zoltar Spreekt from the EscapeCafe in Hilversum, Netherlands

When we played Pray earlier this year we received some recommendations from the owner, one of which was this game. Unfortunately, back then it was only in Dutch, but they promised they would soon have an English version, which they did just in time for our trip. Talking with the […]

Jumanji

Jumanji by Brain On in Athens, Greece

Jumanji is what in Athens they like to call a comedy room. There are a few of those that we have played and are essentially puzzle rooms, which usually do not have very complex puzzles and the point is mostly to have fun in the interactions with the actor which […]

Sherlock Maze 2

Sherlock Maze 2 by Sherlocked Homes in Athens, Greece

Athens is known as the escape room paradise for horror lovers. Out of the 17 Terpeca Greek winners from last year only 4 were not horror. Having played a very large numberof games in Athens, I find also that Athens is also a paradise for puzzle lovers and everyone that […]

The Curse of La Llorona

THE CURSE OF LA LLORONA by Vansa Escape Room 2 in Athens, Greece

Many of the horror escape rooms are inspired by horror movies and this is a further example of it, as it is based on the homonymous movie from 2019. I do not watch horror films, but as a part of a general cinematographic culture I usually know what the horror […]

Sahara

SAHARA by Escapeleku in Vitoria-Gasteiz

Sahara was in my opinion one of the secret jewels of this trip. To start with the theme is unique. I seriously doubt there is anything with this topic anywhere in the world. On top of that, the room is completely made of original material brought from Merzouga (Marocco), so […]

La Novia

La Novia by Black Lake Escape Room in Madrid, Spain

This room has been nominated in the Escape Room Awards 2022 from Spain in two categories, best horror room and best acting and was third in the 2022 Horror Awards. Without being able to compare it with the other contestants, I am not surprised that this is the case. After […]

El Laberinto

EL LABERINTO (The Laberinth) by Descifra Escape Room in Madrid, Spain

Sometimes when booking I read the description of the room and sometimes I don’t. Clearly in this room I didn’t, because I had no clue what to expect. My first association with a labyrinth is the Greek myth connected to the Minotaur and I expected something along those lines. A […]

The Saint

La Santa by SHOCK in Rivas-Vaciamadrid

I had been eagerly awaiting this game since it was announced long time ago. I even hoped to play it in our last trip to Madrid in January 2020, but it was not open back then. Expectations were high and the comments heard about it were promising. Sometimes horror rooms […]

Pray by Escape Room Katwijk in Katwijk, Netherlands

Escape Room Katwijk has been since its first room (Bella Ciao), where I celebrated my birthday 5 years ago, one of the local favorites and has currently all their three rooms in the Top 50 of escapetalk.nl. Bella Ciao and Here I am were both finalists in Terpeca in the […]
