Crack the Egg is a young escape game brand created by two game-enthusiasts that opened in Paris in September 2017 a stone’s throw from the Gare de Lyon.

Crack The Egg escape rooms have been thought up like a trilogy which opuses are bound together by a common theme: the Egg. The first chapter of the Egg quest, “Chinatown: dans les Griffes de la Triade” [Chinatown: in the grip of the Triade] got the ball rolling. The second chapter will be revealed in December 2017 and the next in Spring 2018.

In each room, players can, in addition to their main goal, complete an additional mission, find the egg and eventually crack its secrets.

The story:

Winter 1979, San Francisco.
An ancient feud opposes our Clan to the Triade Sun Tee On ruling the criminal classes of Chinatown and controlling the neighborhood with terror.

The Triade, at the head of a major smuggling traffic, holds, hidden in a secret place, a priceless object that we’ve been coveting for millenniums.

Thanks to our network of informers, we’ve got the address of the Triade’s hiding place. Our orders are clear: while Chinese New Year’s festivities will be in full swing, the traditional peace will be broken, and we’ll take action.

Young initiated, you swore loyalty to our Clan! This mission will be your rite of passage: infiltrate the place, locate the object and steal it. Your honor depends on it.

Review:

Crack The Egg offers a complete immersion in the late 70’s Chinatown in full gangs war between the Triade and the Yakuza.

The decors of the escape room are very realistic and authentic. Enigmas are hard enough to make players’ brains work but it possible to finish the game with no help and in time.

In short, a very pleasant lovely escape game to complete whether you’re a beginner or a skilled player.
