¡Ven a la Taberna y vive una aventura como ninguna!

Neil Parker viene de un largo linaje de dinero y poder, pero poco se sabe de los orígenes de su familia. El régimen totalitario del tirano es muy cuidadoso con los pocos detalles que se cuentan de sus ancestros: grandes batallas, mucho honor y alguna traición…

Habladurías sin mucho fundamento dicen que formaron parte de la aristocracia austrohúngara, y otras historias se remontan al mismísimo Genghis Khan. Pero la realidad es bien distinta. El orígen de los Parker fue humilde, y como muchas historias que merece la pena contar, empezó en una Taberna.

Adentraos en la historia de Neil Ferdinand, el verdadero ancestro del tirano de la City, para descubrir lo que arrancó 400 años atrás y aún sigue vivo en la Taberna de The City Escape Room Barcelona.

So much to do in this game. So many different zones. Some of the best sets I have seen. Amazing interactions with the actor(s). A MUST PLAY!

The most incredible room. Sets are STUNNING and it just keeps going and going. Immersion begins as soon as you enter the building. Could not recommend highly enough. If you want the game in English, make sure you book plenty of time in advance.

Difficult. One not to miss due to the theatrics. Story telling amazing. Sets incredible. Tension in abundance. Thinking outside of the box necessary. Wild imagination. For us - the sound and light display was difficult for us to make out or see everything. Led to some frustrating moments. 
However that may not be a barrier for you. Still unmissable for sure! 

Reviews by escape room review sites

A friend wrote to me saying there was a new room near Barcelona that they had test played and he thinks booking numbers are very likely to go through the roof in the near future. That’s why we should come as soon as possible to play it. Another experienced enthusiast also spoke of TERPECA Top 10 material in connection with this adventure. Even though I’m always a bit skeptical about escape games being hyped so early on, and I try to keep my expectations low, the three of us set out to play this and four other interesting rooms in Barcelona and the surrounding area. Anyone who knows me will probably ask themselves, “What’s going on? Only five rooms in one weekend in Barcelona?” But this was actually a connoisseur tour.

„The City“ in Terrassa (approx. 30 km northwest of Barcelona) is a kind of joint venture between Elements Escape Room and Vortex Escape Room (Apophis). With “Academia de cocina” (Megachef) and “Estudio de televisión” (La Nevera Show), there are two old friends from Experiencity (La Orden, Colors, Terror Stories…), which can also be played in other cities. However, we are here for a different reason.

La Taberna (The Tavern), is a one hundred and twenty minute immersive pirate adventure that, as the name suggests, begins in a tavern. The first location is very interactive and humorous. There we meet a character (very good acting from everyone involved in this game) from whom we want to find out certain information or need items. Of course we don’t get this for free. Everything has its price! I don’t want to reveal much more at this point. In any case, we laughed a lot (I learned that Giulia can tap dance) and immediately immersed ourselves in an exciting adventure with a great plot, during which we were often surprised and left with our mouths open.

I have never loved and been equally disappointed by a room to this extent!
