Near Bercy, in the 12th arrondissement of Paris, Unleash Escape Game welcomes puzzle enthusiasts to a venue dedicated to escape games. Based on Rue Henri Desgrange, the brand crafts scenarios where storytelling plays a central role, delivering adventures designed to unfold from start to finish like a story. The games are played in teams throughout the week, with a reception, a briefing before the session, and a debrief after the game.
The basic concept remains that of an escape game: players must explore the setting, gather clues, and crack a series of puzzles to move their mission forward. At Unleash Escape Game, the scenarios draw heavily on literary works and place a strong emphasis on storytelling. The aim isn’t just to find the exit or complete a mission, but to follow an evolving plot that reveals itself as the experience unfolds.
The venue offers sessions in French and in English. This setup enables it to welcome both francophone groups and international visitors stopping by in the capital.
The various adventures offered by the brand each inhabit their own universe and are the subject of dedicated articles on Sortiraparis. Below you'll find our coverage of the rooms currently on offer.
