Once upon a time from Pérouges to Bugey...
An old legend says that once upon a time, when we strolled from Pérouges to Bugey, you could hear the tinkle of a fairy stuck in the blades of grass… Or the whisper of elves hidden behind an old wall in stone. Or even sometimes, if you listened carefully, to the elusive song of a mermaid in the reeds of a sleeping pond...
“Fantastic Pérouges and Bugey”– Office of Internal Affairs - 1865
But those are just old legends, aren't they? Because today from Pérouges to Bugey there are even more surprising things. Recently, a question is on everyone's lips, the same one that resonates in the alleys of Pérouges in Meximieux and which is spoken of in a low voice at bar counters… And this question, which only you can answer, is…

The concept of the kit survey : escape game in the open air
This is a treasure hunt in Pérouges “escape game style”More without time limit no stake in leaving a room, because the game takes place outside ! Throughout the puzzles, the game will take you through the cobbled streets of the medieval village and the streets of the town of Meximieux. The game is collaborative and can be played between 2 and 6 players. You'll have to call in your friends for reinforcements! And if you want to do it with your family, know that it is suitable for children from 12 years old.
Can I play it between two slices of Pérouges galette?
Not so fast, dear investigators! It is a gripping investigation, which invites you to escape and immerse yourself in your own imagination. It therefore counts 2 parts, approximately 2 hours each. But do not panic ! The game is done independently and at your own pace, there is no time constraint. For the most motivated players, it is possible to do both parts in the same day with a picnic break in the middle. For those who prefer to take their time, it is possible to play over two half-days. You can play all year round, but for your comfort, the game is not recommended in case of bad weather, high temperatures or off-season (from November to March).
- Office Tip: Play over a full weekend for the best experience.
