If you're a fan of magic, you're in for a treat at Enigma 78, anescape game located in the Village des Loisirs de Maurepas, in the heart of the Yvelines department, where you can discover a most bewitching room: The Power of Arcanum! And you'll have to use all your powers to get out of this room in time...
"Magic has almost completely disappeared from our world, as an evil organization, the League of Shadows, has worked tirelessly to discover and collect all the magical objects that have ever existed. Your mission is to penetrate the League's secret hideout and steal a legendary magical object called the Arcanum. Prophecy has it that it can unleash all magic once more! But you've got to hurry!If you run out of time, magic will be lost again for hundreds of years to come... Are you up to the challenge to free magic in our world?"
Le Pouvoir de l'Arcanum invites you, for 60 minutes, to solve all the riddles proposed to succeed in finding this magical artifact. This is a family-friendly room, so kids can play too (accompanied children aged 8 and over, or 14 and over). You'll need to rack your brains to escape from the League of Shadows HQ!
Our verdict
A room that the editors were able to test. If you're a fan of witchcraft or Harry Potter, this is the escape game for you! Accessible for families, the level of difficulty is interesting and won't frustrate you if you're a regular puzzle fan. Magic mirrors, constellations, truth serum and dubious potions await you, with a lot of thinking and a bit of manipulating and rummaging. One good thing: there are no padlocks in this room, for greater immersion in the setting and the world of magic.
While the first room may seem a little confusing, with its Alice in Wonderland feel, the rest of the tour goes off without a hitch, requiring you to rack your brains and connect the dots. In a veritable cabinet of curiosities, you find yourself with grimoires to decipher, like any good sorcerer, to prevent the League of Shadows from accomplishing its dark designs. Ideal for a family with teenagers, or with friends, for a good hour in another world!
The ultimate adventure for fans of fantasy and magic... So, are you ready to save the world?
