Rarely has a game delivered so well on so many fronts: story, set, worldbuilding and puzzles – they were all great. The Taxidermist is a great game that managed to bring genuine emotion to our team on top of a truly fun experience.

Recommendations for the best games in the French capital, highlighting the games which excel with immersion, decoration and puzzles including recommendations for both families and scare enthusiasts.

A round-up of the second half of my Paris trip, including trips to One Hour, Hell Out, Pandora et Associés, Border Live, Deep Inside, You Have Sixty Minutes, Quest Factory. Plenty of reasons to visit the French capital with a full wrap up to come soon.

A round-up of two days of games in the French capital including all four games at Crack the Egg, “Alice” at Phobia, “Far West”, “Cinema” and “The Metro” at The Game, “The Deveaux Family” at Panik Rooms, “Titanic” at Majestic and “Chemical Hallucinations” at The One Escape.

An utterly beguiling pair of games that individually are well worth a visit but together are must plays in Paris. The immersion throughout is a particular highlight but there are fun puzzles, plenty of memorable moments and good set decoration.

A beautiful imagining of a fairytale world, Fairytale Regulations presents scene upon scene of high quality visuals combined with fun gameplay that engaged the whole team. One of my favourite Parisian games and worthy of its Top Escape Room Project Award.

A very belated review of the game that’s been voted the world’s best on two separate occasions, and with good reason. It mixed high-quality puzzles, impressive set decoration and a sense of adventure to leave every other escape room trailing in its wake.

A round-up of the Dutch and Belgian escape room scenes based on four trips that I’ve made over the last few years. If you’re looking for the best games in the world, then you could certainly do a lot worse!

A round-up of the games we’ve played in the southeast of the Netherlands including Catch Me If You Can, Project Ramkraak and, of course, the perennial favourite, Kamer 237.
