Our day started with Ravengers Assemble at Escape 60! This theme is inspired from Marvel’s super heros. In this scenario, the most powerful superheroes disappeared so we have to get their weapons and precious possessions back. Then, we can start a battle to save the world! Time to assemble the best super hero team!

Before starting the escape room, the game master brings us in a conference room to explain the rules and hear the audio story. Unfortunately, we didn’t think that the goal of the story was very clear in the audio. But, we got lucky with our game master as he was one of the owners of the company and was then very passionate about escape rooms.

We love when the exterior door of escape rooms are decorated and all of them are at this location! The decors inside the room are very realistic and impressive. The only downside is that there was only 1 big room and one tiny one. Also, it’s fairly rare to have a super hero theme so we thought that the decor of the room could have been even more developed and researched. There was theme related music in the room which is always a plus for the immersion.

The hints were given via a talkie walkie but the twist is that the game master is answering in character with a name related to the theme that we chose prior to starting the room. About the puzzles, there was a good balance between automatic mechanisms and locks. These latter were all identified so that we can associate the puzzle to the right lock. This escape room isn’t linear which means that we can work on multiple puzzles at the same time.

Overall, this room was a great one to start with because it’s not too hard and it set the bar high for the other rooms. We are happy with our performance as we finished with a great time without using any hints. In addition, our performance in this room convince the game master to let us try rooms that were built for more than 3 persons. We loved it and we escaped!
