WHAT WE DO
We are an "ESCAPE ROOM". The idea is simple. You and your teammates are locked in a room.You need to find your way out by solving puzzles and using logic. You have less than an hour to do so.
This is the best activity to do indoors with your friends, work colleagues or family. The nature of the game works perfectly for anybody and everybody because it requires little physical effort and lots of logic, problem solving, brainstorming and communication skills. An escape room is a perfect way to have lots of fun, give yourselves a real challenge, build up relationships between team members, or even celebrate someone in an original way.

The magical world is a well kept secret. There are wizards, witches, spells and magical creatures living among regular people. But how long can it be kept a secret? The magical creatures are making their appearances now and then, and someone has to keep them contained
A young wizard was in charge of this task, and he had a real gift with the animals. He had a passion, and he fell in love with them. A dangerous thing to do in those days.
During some disagreement with the ministry of magic, the young guardian decided to flee, and take all his creatures with him. He chose a very difficult journey, as he will always be between the two worlds, neither willing to accept him
Ministry of Magic will do anything to find out where he's hiding. But this is not the whole story... are you willing to dive in and find out what really happened?

UK. 31st December 1951.
He was an average magician, who was traveling the world from town to town along with his best friend doing their magic show in front of regular folks.
But all that ended when the war came, and he had to go on the battlefield to defend his country. This changed him. When he came back home, he went dark. He would lock himself in the old, dark, cold house, and wouldn't talk to anybody.
And when he did talk to people, he would be mumbling about the evil nature of mankind, the end of humanity and his final magic trick. People often use to say that he's gone mad because he looked the devil in his eyes, or that he had sold his soul to the devil.
Finally, one day he vanished, leaving behind just a letter to his best friend... "I have hidden a clock in the house's walls. When the clock strikes zero, time will turn back to the origins where humankind didn't even exist"
would you have the courage to try to find and stop the clock? Humanity depends on you!
(This short story is a work of fiction inspired by The House with the Clock in its Walls.)

Dr Morgan's Log:
It’s been more than 10 years since subject 11 closed the gateway to the other dimension. We have been trying desperately to find another one like her [,,,]
[,,,] Subject 53: From a young age, this orphan girl showed a lot of potential. She seems to instinctively adapt to all our learning tests and absorb all the knowledge she is exposed to like no other before her. Could she be the one?
[,,,] Leaping experiments: We can now confirm that Subject 53 is able to access the other dimension with her mind. She was able to provide valid information from the other world. We will continue the experiments until the final objective: a bi-dimensional gateway.
[,,,] The accident: The last experiment proved to be too much for Subject 53. She spent too much time on the other side. She fell into a deep comma. Her vital signs are low, however she is experiencing intense brain activity, which makes us believe that her mind might be trapped in the other dimension.
[,,,] Objective: We will immerse into her mind and try to bring her back. It is a journey nobody ever tried… Do you dare?

It all started like the adventure of our life. This forest is known as being haunted... what better place to spend Halloween? Everything was going well... all gathered around the fire telling scary stories and eating marshmallows...
Until, out of nowhere, a storm broke loose. The rain was falling down so badly that we could barely see anything. A voice suddenly broke through the storm... "In here, hurry!" he said.
We followed the voice to a small cave in the mountain where an old man had shelter. But not all of us made it to safety. Two of our friends got lost in the storm.
The old man offered us some warm tea and dry blankets. Around the fire, he told us about this old cabin close by, that used to be the house of a woman whose parents were accused of witchcraft. Now the place is empty, but many say it's haunted by evil spirits. Many people have disappeared, never to be found in this forest.
If our friends are still out there, that could be the first place to start searching... maybe they found shelter at the old cabin...

The Island. 31st October 2015.
During the demolishing of one of the oldest buildings on the island, something really astonishing came to light. An old shipwreck was buried under this building for more than 200 years. "Medusa" was the pirate ship belonging to Bernardin Nageon de L'Estang, nicknamed le Butin. "Le Butin" was his whole life obsessed with finding the legendary treasure of one of the most famous pirates of all times called "La Buse" (Olivier Levasseur).
Legend has it, before "La Buse" was publicly hanged for his piracy crimes, he threw his necklace in the crowd while exclaiming: "Find my treasure, the one who may understand it!". The necklace was containing a cryptogram of 17 lines, which drove "Le Butin" insane trying to decipher it.
70 years after "La Buse"'s execution, "Le Butin" claimed in a letter sent to his brother, that he finally cracked the coded message and he is going to collect the treasure of "La Buse". That was the last anybody had heard of him. Many say that the treasure was cursed and "Le Butin" fell as one of its victims.
The secret might still be on the shipwreck, IF YOU DARE… try to Find it.

WHY ARE WE THE BEST?
We are proud to call ourselves one of the best Escape Rooms in Montreal, and not without reason(s)...
Word from the owner:
"It was in 2014 when I played an escape room for the first time. I fell in love instantly. That's when I decided to open the first Escape Room in Montreal.
It was an opportunity of a lifetime to showcase my talent and creativity that people said my whole life I have. I put together a small team of enthusiasts and started building the first 2 scenarios. I was still working my regular day job when we opened to the public in October 2014.
We had a lot of setbacks since then, but our passion and client's support helped us not only surpass the problems but becoming better. Today I can say without a doubt that Find The Key is one of the best escape rooms in Montreal, with an unequaled level of immersion and puzzle complexity.
I thank my team for their hard work and dedication, also my clients for their support and drive.
Daniel"

''It was a very friendly staff, we had a wonderful time and would love to visit again if ever in town again :)''
''This place is AMAZING! The activity was so much fun! We were anxious at first, because we weren't really sure how things would go in the room, but once you get into the hang of things and understand the concept of the clues, it gets very interesting and the adrenaline kicks in! 45 minutes goes by so fast, but it's really worth the money and time. Plus, the staff is so kind and lively. They are very interactive and funny. I had an amazing experience there with my friends, and plan on going back for the other scenarios! :D <3 Thanks Find The Key Team!!!!''
