There is no doubt that this game is a top game, with a nice storyline and a very clever combination of tech and personalisation that is something I've never seen in an escape room before; we had a great time, we enjoyed the process and we appreciated the fine craftsmanship of the entire experience. Saying this, however, we didn't quite gel with the flow of the gameplay at times but we think that might be down to personal style - we love a puzzlefest and that's not what The Brewery is. What it is, however, is really delightful, very immersive and beautifully done, with very friendly staff and the chance to taste the fruits of your efforts at the end. Certainly a must-play.

For an older game, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, it was a great surprise. It was our 11th game of the week and this was as up there with the very best. All the puzzle made sense, thematically it was so cohesive. Tech element worked so well, allowing everyone to be included. Worth seeking out. GM was the owner and had a wonderful chat afterwards. Hopefully more great rooms to come.

Let me start by saying I may have expected too much from this room with it being so highly rated in the TORPECA awards. 

We found this room frustrating more than anything, once you got out the initial room (which is really cool). One of the puzzles didnt quite make sense to us, and there seemed to be multiple choices for some puzzles and sort of guess work. This may have been user error, as we didnt get chance to chat afterwards as we headed straight to another room elsewhere. 

Now the negative is out of the way, I would like to say its a very clever room (ideally need 4 players) and its BEAUTIFUL! Some really good puzzles and some good mixture of physical stuff and mental. Even though I didnt think it was amazing, id still say its a must do when visiting Barcelona

Ace game with a really unique and clear aim plus an excellent translation to English. Puzzles were well themed, interesting and well signposted. The set was impeccable, lovingly built and well crafted. Tech worked really well and the hosting was flawless. Best Spanish game thus far!

What a fantastic game - local theming, a clear objective, beautificul set design, solid and original puzzles. Set for 3+ people but you can do this fine as a 2. Well hosted and thoroughly enjoyed. Absolutely recommended if in BCN - easy to get to as well.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Those cynical about corporate sponsorship might be dubious about a game built for the Estrella brand of beer. Suspend any doubts you might have: The Brewery is an exquisitely polished escape room that shines with quality at every step in every way.

This is another game with an official minimum player count of 4, so if you’re visiting as a pair you’ll need to scrape up another couple of people somewhere. The size of the game, and the degree to which it’s non-linear, would already be a reason to ...

La Cerveceria (The Brewery) is the name of the new Escape Game from Enigmik. It was created in close collaboration with the Estrella Brewery, whose Antiga Fàbrica Estrella Dam is just a block away.
