Top Escape Games in Barcelona

Escape Game is the name commonly given for a type of physical adventure game in which the participants are locked inside a room, having to use the elements they find in that room to get out. Also known as Room Escape, this sort of entertainment presents the players with a fictional scenario with a mystery that needs solving.

The first Escape Game was created in the U.S. in 2006 by a group of programmers in Silicon Valley. Shortly after, other countries started adopting this form of entertainment, like Japan, where Takao Kato invented the Real Escape Game.

If you would like to try this exciting form of entertainment, there are places you can go to during your visit to Barcelona. Here is ShBarcelona’s list of Best Escape Games in Barcelona.
