"A really great and exciting browser escape game with challenging puzzles that genuinely fit the plot. The whole experience is framed by a well-crafted story, strong audio and atmospheric images. We had a lot of fun and are looking forward to part two!"
– Linde Leschinski
"A truly excellent escape game. We had an incredible amount of fun as a group - the puzzles were creative, varied and very well thought out. I especially liked that help was available when needed without giving everything away. Compared with other escape games, the tasks here are particularly diverse, so it never gets boring. For the price, you get many hours of gameplay, which absolutely convinced us. Clear recommendation - we would gladly come back!"
– Vicky Vogel
"Hard to be more current than this: The Louvre Heist! It was our first online escape game and we played as a team of three. Some puzzles are very tricky, but bit by bit we understood what to look for and that sometimes it makes sense to use the in-game help. It was a fun game night. If you love online escape games and challenging puzzles, this is an easy recommendation. We are already looking forward to the sequel!"
– Sonja E.
"I have played many online escape games and now tried The Louvre Heist by i-Detect Game. I found it exciting and very well designed. Compared with other games, I especially liked that you stay inside the story the whole time and that the puzzles always have a clear connection to the plot. The hint system is also very well thought out: if you get stuck, the hint guides you systematically toward the next idea instead of revealing the solution. The difficulty varies - some puzzles are easy to solve, others are genuinely demanding. I absolutely recommend the game. We played for 3.5 hours, and for that I think the price is very fair."

"Exciting game with a strong storyline. I am already looking forward to the sequel."

"We had a very entertaining evening! Exciting story and great puzzles."

FAQ
The key questions, kept to the point
What is an online escape game?
An online escape game - also called a virtual escape room or exit game - is an interactive mystery game played directly in your browser. You follow a story, solve puzzles and collect clues without downloading or installing anything.
How is an online escape room different from a classic escape room?
There is no travel, no fixed time slot and no time pressure. Start whenever you like, pause whenever you need to and play with just a browser. The code is valid for all players.
How many people can play?
Whether you play as a pair, a trio or a bigger group, we recommend 1-5 players for the best experience. The price stays the same, for 2 people just as for five. Ideal for a game night at home.
Can we play from different locations?
Yes. Each player can enter the code on their own device while you talk via video call, for example Zoom, Meet or Teams. The game runs in parallel; there is no device synchronization.
Do we need a download or special software?
No. The online mystery game runs entirely in the browser - no download, no app, no installation. A modern browser and a stable internet connection are enough.
What device do we need to play?
A desktop or laptop works best; a tablet in landscape mode works too. The game is not playable on a smartphone - the screen is too small for the puzzles. It also helps to have pen and paper ready.
How difficult is the game?
Challenging, but doable - suitable for different experience levels. If you get stuck, the built-in hint system gives targeted help without immediately revealing the solution.
How long is my code valid? Is there a time limit?
There is no expiry date and no in-game time limit. You can start, pause and continue whenever you like.
How does booking work?
Buy directly online. Your access code appears immediately after purchase and is also sent by email. No registration, no subscription.
Can we give the online escape game as a present?
Yes. At checkout you can choose "Give as a gift voucher" - ideal for a birthday or Christmas. The code has no expiry date, so the recipients can play whenever they like.
