Half-life: Alyx
REAL LIFE ESCAPE GAME IN MONTREAL
IMAGINE A COMPUTER GAME IN REAL LIFE
A/Maze is a real-life room escape game that offers unique and immersive adventures. Our games are a great way to test your problem-solving skills and teamwork. It allows you to experience a situation you will never encounter in real life. Imagine escaping from a 1987 Prison with metal cell bars, a solitary room and evidence board, or the secret lab of a scientific genius who went crazy and decided to destroy the world. Sounds like a movie scene? It’s as real as it can get.
Each scenario exists in its own reality. You have to find clues, crack codes, solve puzzles and most importantly – work as a team in order to pass all the challenges. False clues and misleading trails and deadlocks will consume your time and test your patience -everything has its consequences. The game time is limited, so there is no time to fool around – the countdown begins as soon as you enter the room.
Don’t you want to shout “Veni, Vidi, Vici”?
Prove your worthiness – and don’t forget to escape before it is too late.

MORE THAN A REGULAR ATTRACTION
LIVE AN ADVENTURE LIKE NEVER BEFORE
The game begins the moment you step into the room. Depending on the scenario chosen, you and your team have anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes to escape. Quests do not require any special training or physical strength. Logic, observational and communication skills are the key abilities.
Do you believe you and your friends are a good enough team? Does your significant other or family have a strong enough relationship with you to work together in order to pass all our challenges? Test your skills at A/Maze and find out!

We did the laboratory which was well decorated and super fun. We used the 2 free clues very selectively but they were super important. Very enjoyable! Would definitely recommend.

I choose A/Maze as a group activity with my friends to have a friendly competition between the guys and the girls(Girls won!). We did the Lab, the hardest one, the person giving the briefing was fun and made the experience even better. Actually the whole staff was on point!

We reserved for 3 people however we want to add an extra player, what should we do?
Send us an email to booking@amazemontreal.com and we will change the reservation.
We are a group of 7 to 10 people, can we play all together?
The scenarios at A/Maze are designed with a maximum number of players in mind. This allows for all players to participate and have the best overall experience. We will have to split you up into 2 teams.
The only location that can fit that many players in one game is St-Henri.
We are team of 2-3-4 participants. Is it possible that someone else plays with us?
Nope! As of December 10th 2018, all of our escape games are 100% one team per adventure! This means that no matter how many players you are, no other team will be paired up with you.
We want to play just the 2 or 3 of us, is this possible?
Yes, it is possible, however, the prices are a bit more expensive the less players you are and same goes with your chance of success.
We reserved for 5 people however there are only 3 of us coming, do we have to pay for the missing players?
No! However, keep in mind that the prices vary depending on the number of players. This means that a team of 5 players will pay less per individual than a team of 3 players.
We made a reservation on the website and paid for 4-5 people, but one of us can't come. Can we get a refund for a missing player?
– No problem, contact us 48 hours before your reservation for a full refund, otherwise, a gift card will be issued on site for the remaining balance.
What are the methods of payment?
You can pay on arrival; we accept cash, credit cards (not American Express) or debit cards at our Atwater, Griffintown, Plateau and Pointe-Claire location. The St-Henri location does not take debit. You can also pay online by credit card or PayPal when you make your reservation.
How do I pay for my game with a gift card?
All of our games currently require a deposit to be made when booking online. When making a reservation, simply pay for the deposit and when using your gift card on location, you will be refunded right away!
Our picture was taken after the game - where can I find it?
All photos are posted on our facebook page at Facebook.com/AmazeMontreal within three days of your experience. You will receive an email once the photos are uploaded.
Why is it 13+?
Our activities are for all ages; however some elements might be more challenging for players under the age of 13. Therefore we ask for at least one adult participant to be among a younger group.
The Virtual Reality Experience is strictly 13 up, even if an adult is present. This is for safety reasons.
Do you have any discounts for kids?
Yes – Kids 4 years old and under play for free. Kids from 5 to 9 years old get a 50% off. Kids from 10 to 12 years old can play with a 30% discount. ID may be required.
What should I do if i want to play the same room again?
All you need to do is to make an online reservation for the game!
Do you have any birthday specials?
Yes, a birthday girl/boy can get 1 free entrance to any of our games on the day of their birthday. They must provide a valid photo ID.
Are games in french or in english?
All our games are fully bilingual.
Can we do a corporate team building exercise / birthday party / special event at A/Maze?
A/Maze Entertainment is the right company to organize the ideal team-building event!
Head to our Team Building Page to learn more.
Do you sell food, alcohol or can we bring food?
We do not sell alcohol, but some of our locations do offer some drinks for purchase!
What happens if we win?
In addition to all the bragging rights, your team will have the chance to sign our winner’s board which is displayed in the A/Maze hallway.
A/Maze Pointe-Claire has a special medallion system. At the end of each game, you can find a piece of the medallion that you can keep. When you have all four pieces of the medallion, you can exchange it for a special prize.
Is the building barrier free and wheelchair accessible?
A/Maze Atwater is located within an old industrial building that is not barrier free and therefore it is not wheelchair accessible. A/Maze Griffintown is located in a basement only accessible by stairs. A/Maze Plateau is located on the second floor of a building with no elevator.
At A/Maze St-Henri and A/Maze Pointe-Claire, our games are built in a way that makes it difficult to play in a wheelchair. If you do want to try it out, please contact our game masters in advance so they can find a way to modify the game for you. We cannot guaranty that this will be possible.
Is it scary or are there any tasks that require physical strength or special abilities?
You don’t need any special abilities or need to use any strength to play our games.
Do you have a parking?
Our A/Maze Pointe-Claire is situated inside the CF Fairview shopping mall with plenty of free parking around.
Unfortunately, A/Maze Atwater, A/Maze Griffintown, A/Maze Plateau and A/Maze St-Henri do not have a parking lot but you may park on the streets surrounding A/Maze.
