The (Diavik) Mine

When we played this game in January it was still called Diavik’s mine and was operating under the name of the company that developed this game (Unreal). Nowadays they are a separate company and they also renamed the game to Quintana´s mine (La mina de Quintana). Most of the European […]

The Pharmacy

The name of this escape room does not say much, but yes, it is another room, where the underlying story is connected to the one and only Sherlock Holmes. This room came highly recommended by many local players, although our friends from El Quinto Elemento were not so enthusiastic about […]

Vacations

Finally, well deserved holidays. We are received by a rather crazy girl, very active and talking non-stop. There is a lot of interaction at the beginning of the game. For people that want to go straight to the game it might be a little bit long, but if you are […]

Sherlock vs Moriarty

(By Santiago) This room has a topic that does not need any presentation. Probably every major city has at least one escape room around the figure of the mythical detective (and his nemesis of course). When choosing the rooms in Madrid, one of the reasons to choose this one, was […]

The Island

This was our last game of the Spanish trip, and I am really happy that I chose this one to finish the trip. The game starts with a very long intro, which by then we knew it was one of the characteristics of many of the games in the region. […]

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 […]

After playing Cast Away (review will follow), we also played this game at this company. The game is a classic detective/spy game and in this case that says pretty much all. In plain language, not much of a set, other than the typical indoor apartment/office that characterize these kinds of […]

The Hive

The Hive by Escapa de La Colmena

In order to maximize our escaping time during the trip, we booked this room “after hours” right after Sleepy Hollow, which is located (literally) next door. This room was made by the same company (3d games) which also created the room just mentioned and which has been very busy this […]

The Chaak Temple

While I write this review, I am thinking of how lucky we were, that we got to play this game, as it closed its doors not a long time after that. I do not know if or when or where it will reopen, but if it does, I am sure […]

The Awakening of Ms Blood

Due to an earlier game, we were having some delay and luckily the friendly owner allowed us to play the game with a slight delay in the start. Being experienced he spared us the typical standard introduction and only explained us something very particular about this game, namely that there […]
