What exactly is an escape game?

And for those unfamiliar with escape games, a reminder is in order: it's a life-size escape game in which participants have to get out of an enclosed space by solving riddles within a given timeframe, usually one hour.

L'Asile takes these classic codes and applies them to a particularly immersive fictional psychiatric universe. This type of activity combines reflection, observation, cooperation and a sense of direction in a scripted setting. It's the perfect way to enjoy a game with friends or colleagues, provided you're a good sport. How about a reservation?
