The area
Address
Neighborhood: Eixample
Passing through the glorious Plaça Catalunya, you enter the newer city district of Eixample, literally translated as “extension,” which immediately becomes recognizable by its more spacious streets and elegant atmosphere. The main artery of this sizable district, Passeig de Gracia, is lined with high-end international designer stores. Not to be outdone, the glitz and glamour of this zone is perhaps best exemplified by the comfortable and lavish five-star hotels that flank the divine and modernistic buildings from some of the world’s most recognized architects such as Gaudi and Montaner.
How to get there
  • Urquinaona • 2 min walk

    Amazing Escape
    Great Escape Room! We have done over 25 rooms in many places, and this is one of the best! Immersive with great sets and the game master was so much fun! Paola was a great gamemaster that we ended up going to Maximum Escape 3 times in 1 week!!! And we would like to go for more, when we go to Barcelona again!!!

    Best Escape ever!
    Great experience! Our game master was Ruy, who truly outdid himself to make our Prisoner of Alcaban experience memorable and fun. Hands down, the best escape room we’ve ever done. Well done Ruy!

    Maximum Escape - Feedback
    Fantastic escape rooms. My girlfriend and I have done around 40 escape rooms across London, Amsterdam and Spain and I can say without a doubt Maximum Escape offers some of the best I've seen! The Gamemasters were also incredible - particularly Fede (Escape 1) and Martin (Escape 2). Highly, highly recommend. Discounts make multiple visits very worthwhile too!
    Thank you very much for your review! We are very glad you had a good experience at Maximum Escape, and we hope to see you again soon in other of our experiences. And yes, Fede and Martín are such a great Game Masters!!!

    Excellent immersive experience
    This was our 41st escape room, and is up there with one of the best. It's hard to compare because rooms can be so different, but this was an excellent immersive experience, that guides you through a linear story with clever and intriguing puzzles and activities along the way. Or games master and live host, Pedro, was excellent, as is his English. Absolutely will be back when we return to BCN next year.
    Thank you very much for your review! We are very glad you had a good experience at Maximum Escape, and we hope to see you again in your next Barcelona trip. And yes, Pedro is such a great Game Master:)

If I could give less, I would.
We spent about 20 min shouting and calling for help or clues, nobody listen or even looked at us at the cameras. After about 25 min they came inside and gave us the key, because there was a problem with the room. 10 min later, at a different spot, they asked us to spin the wheel faster and faster until it fall on one of the participant’s leg! Of course, they didn’t know that, because they weren’t lookin, again.
We ended the game with feelings of disappointment and pain.
Most of us have done many rooms before, but this is the first time ever that we injured in one.
I recommend to anyone who want to stay safe and healthy-don’t go to any of their rooms.

Hello, good morning. While we always appreciate feedback, we regret that many of the things you mention are not true. First of all, we apologize if the room was not to your liking, we understand that each client has different tastes. As for the clues, each room has a different timing, as we indicated before starting, whenever you ask for help, the Game Master will decide whether to give it to you or not, in case you have enough time, we let you think a little more. At no time you have been left 25 minutes without help, as you have indicated. There is no clock inside the room, so it is impossible for you to know the real time. Regarding the test in which you supposedly got hurt, our game has been open for more than 7 years and we have never had any problem related to that enigma. We apologize if you really dropped an object on your foot, but we really cannot be held responsible for that, as that can happen to you with any everyday object and it was a human error on your part, even though you decided to finish the game and our staff did not charge you. As stated in the authorization you signed when you entered, if the players decide to finish the game the amount of the game must be made, in that case we made an exception and that shows that our staff did everything possible to be able to help you, even though you have made an uncertain comment about our company. Every day we work to offer the best possible service and criticisms like this make us take steps backwards, we ask you to rectify the comment and that it really is a constructive opinion, even if it is still negative. Thank you very much, Eric

We just played Sherlock. The host was arrogant, he followed his script obviously, but did not think or did not try to welcome us. At the end of the game he did not ask how the game was, any feedback, he did not offer any rooms in their network or discount for them, he hid in his room and we after waiting a while just walked out ... The room was also cheap!! Overall we paid 70€ just for low quality room + low quality experience. I must add that we have visited over 40 room and we have a room in Sofia, Bulgaria... And I cannot even start to compare the quality..

Hello, Thank you for posting a review although we are very disappointed that many parts are not true. First of all, our Game Masters always welcome the players, offer them water, toilets and an authorization to fill in. After that they explain the rules of the game in a comical and entertaining way. At the end of the experience the Game Master takes a picture of the players and accompanies them to the hall, where the clients collect their things while we send them the picture and at the end they are dismissed. In no case are exceptions made and much less has it been the case that a group receives neither welcome nor farewell. Regarding the experience, each player has different tastes and we understand that you may have liked it more or less, we can only say that "Sherlock" is one of our most played rooms and one of the most loved by our customers. In Maximum we take care of the ambience of the rooms in detail and each room has a totally different theme. We think this comment is very unfair, especially considering that you are owners of other Escape Rooms, since you know perfectly well the work behind each room and how harmful opinions like yours are. Thank you.

Ulysses is more of a “guided adventure” than an escape room, since you don’t really have the autonomy to go looking around for clues and deciding on the next steps. You just go along for the ride, deal with problems as they come up, and have a laugh interacting with the AI of your spaceship. I’d recommend this room to people who enjoy the roleplaying aspect of escape rooms.

Sci fi escape room in a spaceship fighting aliens. Set was interesting. Puzzles were different but not completely intuitive. Lots of talking by game master for story development. Cost 70 euros for 2 people (30 euros deposit and 40 euros at time of game), cash only. Would recommend Escape Barcelona over Maximum Escape.

This was our first escape room as a family. We had so much fun. It was fully emmersive from the start and our game master, Angela, was brilliant. Cannot recommend it enough. A perfect way to have some fun with teenagers. Will definitely be doing another one.

We have done many escape rooms all over the world and this one was great. Nelson was our game host, super friendly, perfect with what clues he gave and, more importantly, which he made us figure out ourselves. The room has a diverse selection of puzzles. We definitely enjoyed ourselves tremendously!!

I was on a student trip with my whole class and we got spilt up into groups to try escape rooms. This by far my favorite experience from the trip. It was so fun and thrilling. Nelson was our game-master, and he really MADE the experience. I definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Barcelona.
