Sets the mood right from the start, with important initiation phase and moving to the room. Clever devices throughout to separate the group and work together to get out. The set design is amazing and you really are immersed in this world. The room still holds up in 2024.

Another amazing game from Escape Barcelona. This one is very physical so be prepared to climb, crawl and get very dirty. The GM involvement is really good and the storyline is very tense from the very beginning.  A couple of the Spanish phrases in the game weren't quite accurately translated but not enough to stop us understanding everything.A great game with a fun level of scariness.

Beautiful set design and some great GMing.  Some creepy elements so maybe not great for children! Great use of space and some fun physical elements.

Reviews by escape room review sites

As escape rooms have evolved and become more sophisticated, I think it’s fair to say that in the whole they’ve shifted in emphasis from ‘puzzle challenge’ to ‘immerse experience’. The degree to which that’s true varies hugely between games, but Legend of Akasha really exemplifies that change.

We found that games in Barcelona were far more likely than U.K. ones to use a ‘cold open’, where you arrive on the dot and are immediately plunged into the game, with no lobby and with any briefing done in...

9.75 / 10

Akasha, the Queen of the Damned. According to legend, she was the first vampire to be the mother and queen of all her descendants.

With „Alien: The Origin“ Escape Barcelona had already made it into the TERPECAs twice – in 2018 18th place, in 2019 47th place. The latest stroke of genius „Tomb Hunter: Akasha’s Legend“ takes it one step further and debuts at the Top Escape Room Project Enthusiasts‘ Choice Award 2019 with an outstanding 6th place.
