Addicted to the adventures of Sherlock Holmes, to puzzles of all kinds? The Hint Hunt is for you! Imagine yourself and your team trapped in a room. Your goal: to get out of the room in less than 60 minutes by solving a series of riddles, each one different from the other... This "live escape game" will give you a hard time and will reveal your detective skills..., or not.

You've been waiting for it: it's finally here, the new entertainment concept in Paris! Coming from Hungary and the United Kingdom, the live escape game is becoming the new trendy experience for young people or families looking for new activities and thrills, for budding Sherlocks and for companies in need of team building.

The goal is simple: lock a group of friends, family or colleagues in a room and wait for them to come out in the allotted time, 60 minutes. With this concept, Hint Hunt attracts crowds in its small room near Beaubourg, where three identical rooms allow three groups to play at the same time.

While the Hint Hunt group launched in December 2013 in Paris, using a scenario that already existed in London, it has been so successful that a second location may open soon to offer players a new puzzle, and exploit the demand.

Because you leave the room full of joy and with only one thing to look forward to: finding the sensations you experienced during the hour. The excitement, the fear, the joy; this adrenalin that welds the group. But the live escape game is a one shot game: you can only play once because you know the answer at the end, of course.

It is necessary to count between 19 and 30 € according to the number of participants and the time chosen for the session, but we can only advise you this experience! Just make sure you choose your team carefully, with whom you wish to consolidate links, and if possible people with complementary qualities, because a bottle of champagne is waiting for the record holders (53'59")!

In our case, we made it! This is not so bad when you know that 50% of the groups remain stuck and do not leave within the 60 minutes allotted. A small victory with an exit in 59'02"...

Will you be able to take the challenge and go beyond your limits? An incredible live puzzle game and a team that welcomes you in a good mood, it's worth the detour!
