Ceremony

The rating is inflated. The rooms felt empty, the props were flimsy, and the second actor you pay extra for is barely involved. The puzzles just eat up time, the actor steers you into conversations, and the time limit is short — it feels like they deliberately don’t let you finish on the first try.

We played “The Rite” on 31 Jan 2024: immersive from the moment you enter, excellent acting, atmospheric locations. The puzzles aren’t too difficult; we took one hint to catch the flow of the game at the beginning. One of the best performances in the city—we’ll be back for the alternative storyline.

We’d been meaning to go for a while, and it was worth it. The rooms are spacious, and the pacing really hinges on the actor; on hard modes it gets downright wild. The team resolved a couple of technical issues quickly and in a friendly, human way, even rescheduled the time for us. For larger groups it’s better to get an additional actor. There aren’t many puzzles, but the performance keeps the rhy... Expand

The quest is genuinely scary, there are many locations, and the sound gives you chills. I wish they would scare the whole team more evenly, not just one daredevil. The administrator was polite and explained everything clearly.

Hard impressed with the number of locations and the attention to safety. The puzzles are solvable; sometimes we opened things by guesswork, and the finale was poor — it made us want to go back and save the nun. The scares hit hard and are on point.

My first horror experience and I went straight for the Hard with contact — scary and exhilarating. I ended up with bruises, but it was all within the rules; you feel like the hero of a horror movie. Better to go with a group — going alone will be rough.

We played both parts: the base “Ritual” and “Return to the Catacombs.” The second part feels like theater from the very first step—the actresses command the room, the atmosphere is thick, scary, and engrossing. It’s worth experiencing both stories back-to-back.

We didn’t complete it and were silently ushered out after the timer. I was surprised that the nun talked for a long time instead of guiding us through the storyline. Having to wait outside before the start and the unpleasant smell in the waiting area spoiled the overall impression.

Super intense performance. We chose the contact mode; the nun was on fire—an adrenaline rush the whole time. The puzzles were on point, and the ending depends on you—we got the bad ending, but that only made us want to come back.

The atmosphere and sound are excellent, and the actor commits to every scene. It was a bit stuffy in the basement and I would have liked more puzzles, but overall I was impressed.

Disappointment: the administrator and the actor confused us more than they helped; it wasn’t scary, just dull. We had to wait outside, there were strict entry rules, and the delivery was dry. I don’t recommend it.

We got an adrenaline rush, but I wouldn't call the quest insanely scary. If you're sensitive, go for the light version without an actor, but honestly, it's more engaging and lively with an actor. We left satisfied.

On Ultra Hard, it's a full-on whirlwind. The Nun nails every tiny detail—goosebumps guaranteed. I'd like the finale to give more attention to all players so no one is left idle, but overall I'm thrilled.

The music, the lighting, and the actor's entrance were nothing but raw nerve. I was honestly afraid to even take photos after the performance. My daughter is asking to go again, but I need to catch my breath for now. Thanks for the wild shake-up.

It didn’t land. Too much talking from the actor; time went by with little progress, and we never saw the finale. For that kind of money, we wanted more guidance and less “drag-it-out and chit-chat.”
