Escape Game Outside Saint-Malo: Solve Puzzles as a Team

Hunt for clues through Saint-Malo's streets and decide the city's fate

An outdoor escape game in Saint-Malo where your team walks the streets solving puzzles and gathering clues to defend the privateer city from pirates. A digital game master guides you throughout the 90-minute adventure, and the ending shifts based on your choices and how you perform in the final battle. Minimum age is 12.

The experience

How does a city turn into a game board? In Saint-Malo, it does the moment your team starts hunting for clues woven into the streets themselves. You're defending the privateer city from offshore pirates: negotiating with locals, learning navigation lessons, and picking up pirate songs along the way. The puzzles are real, the stakes feel immediate, and the story branches depending on what you choose and how well you solve the final challenge. A digital game master stays with you the whole time, feeding clues and keeping the narrative moving.

The game runs about 90 minutes and works at your own pace. You gather your team and play whenever you want. Every area is wheelchair accessible, and the game is built for anyone 12 and up, regardless of fitness level. You'll receive a team card and access to the connected game system that ties the whole experience together. The real pull is the choice mechanic: your decisions throughout the hunt actually change how the story ends, so two teams playing the same game can walk away with different outcomes.
