Tic Tac Go Escape Room and Games

Tic Tac Go is a unique Escape Room Game for all ages. You can test your problem-solving and teamwork skills. Each scenario will immerse you in a new reality. Use your imagination and become a well known thief who boards a train to steal from rich passengers. Or perhaps become a powerful sorcerer in a medieval castle. Can you hear the clock...Tic Tac, Tic Tac ?

We just finished the Train Heist room on Canada Day and we did the Magical Room before the Covid lockdown. Both rooms are a lot of fun and very impressive. The room decor and puzzles are top notch. We have done about twenty rooms and are thrilled that two of our favourites are so close to home. The Magical Room was a little more complex, but I think we enjoyed the Train Heist even more. We also took advantage of their home delivery to enjoy their wonderful selection of Escape Room games, puzzles and family board games. Everything felt super clean and safe. It's a great family experience in this time of social distancing. We are big fans and can't wait for whatever comes next. Brenton DeLong Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada

Alderney Landing

Reviewed By pdube7 - St. John's, Canada

The views from the ferry of both sides of the Harbour are fantastic and the ferry is very reliable, weather pending of course. Do everything within 2 hours and the transfer back is free. Can’t beat it. There is also a market in the terminal on the weekend.
