A mission to complete or a score to defend: in Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Odéon, fans of escape rooms and gaming experiences can book a session and play with friends, family or colleagues. In this part of Paris’s 6th arrondissement, several formats let you share an adventure, each with its own rules and ways to take part.
For those who enjoy solving things together, escape games are built around a simple formula: observe, connect the clues and solve puzzles as a team. At the Bureau des Légendes, located at 24 rue Racine, the game takes the form of an espionage mission. According to the venue, the adventure lasts two hours, accommodates two to six players and features three actors. It is open to players aged 12 and up when accompanied by an adult, and there’s no need to know the TV series.
Competition fans can head to Quiz Room Odéon, at 9 rue Guénégaud. Participants play in a TV game-show set, with buzzers, questions and jokers to shake up the leaderboard. According to the venue’s practical information, sessions last one to one and a half hours. Questions tailored to participants also make the activity accessible to children as young as 8.
The choice can therefore be guided by the group’s preferences: working together to progress through a story or trying to gain the upper hand on the scoreboard. These activities can be part of a birthday celebration, a bachelor party, a bachelorette party or a team-building event. They also give people a reason to get together without any special occasion, simply for the fun of playing together.
All that's left to do is browse the local offerings, and choose the experience that's right for you! And if not, we'll take this opportunity to take a stroll around the neighborhood and discover the other things to do for the occasion:
