Crack The Egg is a youngescape game chain, founded by game enthusiasts of all kinds, which opened its doors in Paris, a stone's throw from the Gare de Lyon, in September 2017.
Crack The Egg escape rooms have been imagined as a trilogy, whose opuses would be linked by a common thread: the Egg. The first chapter of the Egg Quest, " Chinatown: In the Clutches of the Triad ", opened the ball. The second chapter will be unveiled in December 2017, the next in spring 2018.
In each of the rooms, players can, in addition to their main objective, complete a side quest, find the egg, and eventually, unlock its secrets.
The story:
Winter 1979. San Francisco.
An ancient feud pits our Clan against the Sun Tee On Triad, who rule the Chinatown underworld and control the neighborhood through terror.
The Triad, at the head of a major smuggling operation, has a priceless object hidden in an undisclosed location that we've been coveting for millennia.
Thanks to our network of informants, we have obtained the address of the Triad's secret cache. Our orders are clear: as the Chinese New Year festivities get into full swing, the traditional truce will be broken, and we'll be able to take possession of it.
traditional truce will be broken, and we'll spring into action.
Young initiates, you have sworn loyalty to our Clan! This mission will be your rite of passage: infiltrate, locate the object, steal it. Your honor depends on it.
Difficulty level: medium+.
Our verdict :
Crack the egg offers a complete immersion in the Chinatown of the late 70s, in the midst of a gang war between the Triad and the Yakuza.
The escape room's settings are full of realism and authenticity. The puzzles are complex enough to keep players' brains working, but at the same time it's perfectly possible to finish the game on time and without any help.
The team is ultra-friendly, the welcome is warm and everything is done to ensure that the game runs smoothly and that participants have a good time.
In short, a very enjoyable escape game to try out, whether you're a novice or an experienced player.
