To us, Orbis is the company that looks like the future of indoor entertainment. This explains why, as digital natives and, let’s face it, “geeks”, the possibility of telling their story from scratch was so exciting.
We’ve been working with Orbis since before the opening of their first center. Crafting all the pictures and videos needed for their campaigns and social media presence. We’re now almost ready to open their 3rd adventure center.
“ Setting foot in Orbis is the closest experience to jumping in your own epic movie. Over 3000 square meters of delicious food, board games, VR experiences and escape games, along with all the game masters, cocktails and music you could wish for.”
The experience starts the moment you push the door. The whole place is an experience in itself. Every detail has been thought of, from the design and the Chesterfield sofa where you sit while waiting for the game master, to the mocktail you enjoy after winning a game of Totem Attack with your colleague, to the piles of boardgames that are waiting for you.
And if, like us, you’re too lazy to read the rules, game masters will explain them to you. They also made sure to offer good meals at the restaurant. Rather than junk food, you’ll be happy to enjoy comfort food. Let’s not forget about the cocktails and mocktails menu, which is delicious too.
But the core of the Orbis experience is the dozen of signature immersive experiences you can jump in: from an Egyptian tomb to the depth of the ocean, to an alternate reality. Solve the mysteries, answer the riddles, find the treasure and escape before time runs out.
Orbis and Mothership are the kind of family and friends business where everybody is out there trying to make it work. We like to compare our relationship with the Orbis team to the teamwork you need to get out of one of these escape room adventures.
You know what I’m talking about: when one person is focused on reading the clues, while another is looking everywhere to find a key, and a third is obsessed with the props. That’s actually how we do work with Solène, the communication manager, Jean, the artistic director, and Thomas, the game designer.
We make things work. We figure things out.
We have been working with them on a regular basis, translating their crazy ideas and trying to bring more and more fun to the table with pictures, videos, 3D,… And we still have tons of ideas !
After Liège, they opened an even bigger and spacious venue in Lille (Tourcoing). It’s a bigger playground for the customer, of course, but for us too. More universes, more rooms and more adventures.
We can’t wait for Bordeaux !
