RAPTOR Project's Synospsis at The Escape Lab:

"Alert - Dinosaurs detected! - The red alert has been activated in the basement of the Genesis LAB laboratory, renowned for its DNA research. So the RAPTOR Project wasn't fake news. The scientists who worked there have disappeared, but an undercover agent on site has the master key and can get you into the area. As dinosaur experts, only you can tame them. Will there be any survivors?

As you may have gathered, you and your team are among the few survivors of this catastrophe. But time is of the essence! You've only got 75 minutes to solve the riddles and avoid capture by the creatures that roam this dangerous zone. A captivating scenario that guarantees suspense, thrills and reflection!

Our review of RAPTOR Project at The Escape Lab:

A room that the editors were lucky enough to test... And we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the immersion, offering a very, very real adventure, including the urgency of the situation. It's fun, but it's also stressful (good stress, we assure you!). You'll have to sneak into a secret laboratory, recover evidence of dinosaur trafficking, and above all get back alive to complete the mission.

As we said earlier, there are dinosaurs: very, very well-made puppets, animatronics... There are plenty of nice surprises, some of them scary, but all of them promise a colorful and thrilling adventure. Special mention should be made of the very well-done final scene, featuring a large dino that will undoubtedly remind you of a mythical scene from Jurassic Park! And there are plenty of references to the saga, but we promise not to spoil them for you... You'll have to visit the site to discover them.

As for the puzzles, they're relatively straightforward, even, in our humble opinion, simpler than usual. Has our team become good at escape games? We're not going to lie, we weren't exactly brilliant during the session, even forgetting to take the evidence in question back to our Game Master... No, in this case, the riddles are simple, but this is done on purpose: it allows everyone to play, even the youngest, but above all, it allows the Game Masters to play on the stress of the participants to make us work better in a hurry. And it's a well-known fact: the simpler it is, the less easy it is when stress gets in the way. In short, it's a great idea that allows groups to complete the experience without frustration.

What more can I say? Yes, a word of advice: on the first computer you use, be careful with the mouse. Click on the left side of the "ball" (you'll understand when you see it), on the black plastic after the ring, right on the edge of the mouse. For those of you who know this type of mouse, you'll know, but for us who didn't, it was a real struggle... Above all, enjoy every moment!

An escape game we highly recommend. All you have to do now is book your session.

Before attempting this incredible adventure, here are a few things to bear in mind. Theescape game is designed for groups of 2 to 5 people, ideal for an outing with friends or family.
