The story


Vortex Past is a 60-minute escape room in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, for 2 to 6 players (ideally 3 to 6), ages 8 and up.

Travel to the past. Change the fate of humanity.

On June 15, 1989, strange symbols were discovered engraved in an ancestral cave near the equator. Analysis soon revealed a disturbing fact: none of the elements found corresponded to anything found on Earth.

Since then, inexplicable natural phenomena have been multiplying all over the planet. Sudden earthquakes, magnetic disturbances, extreme climate changes… and geologists’ predictions are clear: if nothing is done, the Earth could soon be doomed.

A journey through time takes you to the very era when these mysterious artifacts appeared, before they change the course of history.

Your mission: uncover their secrets before it’s too late.

The fate of humanity rests on your shoulders. Will you be able to rewrite history… and save our future?

Vortex Past: escape room in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu

Vortex: Past is played in a single room, which makes it ideal for a first experience: the whole group stays together and nobody misses the action. Your mission is to travel back in time to stop unknown artifacts from dooming the Earth. The puzzles call for dexterity and analysis, with no scares and no physical constraints. It’s a good choice for families with kids aged 8 and up and for groups of 3 to 6 players who want to discover escape rooms. It’s played at our Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu location, 130 Richelieu Street in Old Saint-Jean, about 40 km from Montreal.
