Artimus Escape Game, an establishment in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, offers visitors the chance to solve a variety of enigmas in the complex's different rooms. It's an absolutely immersive experience, as you're plunged into the atmosphere as soon as you walk through the door.
As soon as you arrive, you're welcomed into a strange cabinet of curiosities, and you have to give a password previously communicated by Professor Artimus himself to gain access to a laboratory and be entrusted with the mission for which you've been asked.
We don't know much about the professor: only that he's passionate about biology, quantum mechanics and astrophysics, and that his work has led to the construction of the "time gate", a space-time rift that visitors will have to cross to complete their mission of solving various enigmas and other mysteries in less than sixty minutes.
There are two rooms:
The year is 1590, and Naples is at the height of the Italian Renaissance. We're at the home of the famous musician Carlo Gesualdo, where we must solve the mystery of the disappearance of the beautiful Donna Maria and the musician himself, an hour before his home was ravaged by flames.
Numerous disappearances have been reported in towns where the Tyfrosi circus has made a stop. The reason? A fantastic creature, the highlight of director Aleister Blache's Freak Show. And, of course, it's up to you to investigate the case in the absence of the circus master...
Another is coming in autumn 2018:
Room 113 :
Christmas 1984. During the night of December 24th to 25th, at precisely 12:30 a.m., an unexplained phenomenon of spontaneous combustion leads to the death of a man who has come with his wife to spend the night in room 113. Every seven years, the phenomenon recurs, and your job is to investigate it.
