Pakotarinat Joensuu
Pakotarinat Joensuu offers immersive and unique escape games and exciting Virtual Reality experiences. We are the only escape room company in Joensuu that doesn’t have other companies’ escape games at all, instead we design and build all our games ourselves. The most important benefit of this is that we fully understand the structure of the puzzles and we maintain and repair the games continuously. We have often heard from other escape games that something has not worked correctly, but when you play with us, you can be sure that all puzzles work as they should 🙂All our games also have built-in difficulty levels, which means you can influence the difficulty of the room during the game. With this, the game experience is more individual and your group gets the best possible experience from the game 🙂
In Joensuu, our games include Circus, Witch of the Enchanted Forest, Secrets of the Past and a variety of Virtual Reality games.
