Project Sphere
“Dennis Christopher, an award winning Quantum Physicist, has vanished into thin air. He was last known to be working on a revolutionary project. Authorities were unable find any traces left by this scientist. With no other options, a bounty has been placed for anyone able to find information regarding the situation. Now you, a special investigation unit, has been called to enter his study room in search for clues.”
We have not yet completed a review of Project Sphere at Omescape in Markham. We hope to experience this room soon.
What others are saying
Omescape now operates as Omventure, and Project Sphere is still running in Markham. It began life as a revamp of the company’s earlier Mysterious Study room, and its story continues in The Penitentiary. Feedback is generally positive, with many players calling it a solid, middle-of-the-road Omventure game and a good first room to try there.
Players on Morty praised the fun, high-tech mechanics, the immersion and how smoothly the puzzles flow into each other, and one called it a favourite. An older review from the Escape Games Review blog, written just after the revamp, felt the update improved the storytelling, tech and polish, and made the room more intuitive.
The criticisms are mostly about scale and story. One Morty reviewer found it average and less grand than Omventure’s newer, longer rooms, a couple said the plot was hard to follow, and one felt it leaned heavily on memory puzzles. One group found the hints unhelpful or confusing.
