Project Details
Scope:
The escape game designed for Taktic Escape Games, located in the 13th district of Paris, is themed around the ship of the pirate Zheng Yi Sao, a Chinese pirate leader active in the South China Sea from 1801 to 1810, also known as Zheng Yi Sao. The experience focuses on immersion through detailed scenery, sound effects, lighting, and interactive storytelling that reflect the dangerous life and mysterious death of the Pirate Queen.
The game area consists of two main spaces: the Deck Area and the Captain’s Cabin. The Deck. Electro-mechanical systems are integrated into several game elements, including the Window Frame, Door Panel, Barrel, and Wooden Calendar. These systems allow physical movement, feedback, and automated reactions to player actions, enhancing realism and engagement. The project includes design, construction, programming, testing, and delivery of a fully operational escape room experience ready.
Scenario:
In the South China Sea, as the waters receded, a pirate ship emerged. After investigations, it was determined that this ship belonged to the pirate Zheng Yi Sao, also known as Madame Ching, the Queen of Whispers. Through her intelligence network, Madame Ching ruled the seas and became one of the most powerful women of her time with her Red Flag Fleet. Legend has it that Madame Ching could sense the future and foresee events thanks to an ancient calendar she possessed. Whether it’s just a story or not remains unknown, but over the centuries, many have sought to seize this calendar. Ultimately, betrayed by her own crew, Madame Ching was killed while trying to protect the calendar. The traitors wanted to share the treasure, so they tried to break the calendar into pieces. This caused the 12 sacred jade stones to scatter and a huge storm to start. The ship flipped over and sank right there. Since that day, it is said that with every storm, the Queen whispers with the wind, tricking sailors on the open waters to their deaths. It is believed that the Queen’s spirit remains trapped in the endless chambers of time because of the calendar. Now, you are about to enter the Queen’s ship. Your mission is to place the 12 jade stones back into their places on the calendar before the waters rise again, in that way breaking the curse. The waters are darker than ever, and time is uncertain. If you wish to survive, ignore the whispers of the Queen!
