This amazing cinema, which has long remained private, is finally opening its doors to the public!

If, like Mr Trippolyte, you like to immerse yourself in the adventure films of the 1980s, see you at the next screening!

story-driven

Sehr grosse Erwartungen gehabt - und dann ist es schwierig, diesen gerecht zu werden. Ein sehr interessantes Thema - Kino natürlich - wo Kinofans auf ihre Kosten kommen. Gut zu wissen: es hat viele Storyelemente, also sollte man gut französisch (oder halt englisch) können. Auch gut für Kinder geeignet, es ist spannend, aber nicht furchteinflössend. Ein guter Raum, der sich definitiv lohnt!

immersivestory-drivengreat hosting

The first room we did a Trip Trap and it was a great warm up. Very much a traditional game but with some wow elements. A lot of effort has gone in to make it fully immersive. 

A large number of nostalgic elements (for a millennial), defiantely worth a visit.

Reviews by escape room review sites

The 80s produced incredible and unforgettable works in the world of cinema: Back to the Future, E.T., The Neverending Story, The Karate Kid, and much more, which still enjoy cult status today. And it wasn’t just the films of that era that shaped pop culture, but also arcade games as templates for cinema blockbusters.

Imagine if a cinema could transport you back to that time by not just watching these movies, but by experiencing them and becoming a part of them. This was probably precisely the intention of Monsieur Tryppolyte de la Trappe, and—damn it—he succeeded.
