Tolok Roomescape is an escape room that gives you the role of Indiana Jones-esque adventurers entering a Mayan temple in order to retrieve a golden statuette! It is close to a metro station (Fabra i Puig), so even if it is not downtown, it is easily accessible. This was my second escape room attempt in Barcelona and it had the additional challenge of being in Spanish. The game is only offered in Spanish or Catalan and having a good grasp of either is important since the help, as well as, some written clues are only provided in these languages. So, if interested to try it make sure you have at least one team member fluent in spanish or catalan. We visited as a team of 4, with 3 Spanish & Catalan native speakers and myself (native Greek speaker with only a weak understanding of Spanish), so translating the clues was covered for me. :) Entering the room definitely immerses you in the experience. The decoration is really well made and the materials are far from the soft styrofoam I've seen used in other rooms. The room has a really small number of actual locks and is mainly based on automated mechanisms which helps with the atmosphere even more. The riddles/puzzles are quite challenging but fun and the room is mainly based on solving with mininal searching (though good observational skills are required :) ). It would probably prove quite difficult for a team of newbies, so some prior escape room experience is definitely required. All in all, I'd say this is one of my favourite rooms, though I need to point out I haven't tried any other room with a similar premise (i.e. a temple), even though I have come across quite a few, so not sure how it compares to those.…

Una experiència genial! Un room escape immillorablement ambientat, tant per la història com per l'ambient en el que se't submergeix des del primer moment. I diferent als room escape que hem fet fins ara. Dels millors que hem fet, amb diferència! Gràcies per l'aventura! An amazing experience! Great atmosphere and story. We have had a wonderful time in this surprising room escape, different from the ones we are used to. One of the best we have played! Thanks for the experience!…
