Not to mention the immediate and liberating pleasure of aiming correctly, that little dopamine rush when you hit the mark, like in the old arcane arcades, but in a dandy version. Because there's more than just the sound of weapons at Pan, there's also the place:
A timeless, cozy, green bar where you can alternate between duels, cocktails, and shared cuisine. The design is elegant, comfortable, and refined, a delightful contrast to the competition and excitement of the game.
The weight of real ones? Yes, because here there are no plastic reproductions, but real rifles, deactivated in Saint-Étienne, modified with a system of sensors developed in-house, like the entire game.
The gesture is realistic, the weight too. The pleasure comes from there : you don't press a button, you reload, you aim, you feel the mechanical click of the trigger.
“We wanted it to be a real feeling, not a toy.” David Musset — The co-founder of PAN and creator of the Escape Game HintHunt franchise, the very first Escape Game opened in France.
Objective achieved, so well achieved that we would gladly recommend coming with 6 players to have time to rest your shoulders between two shooting sessions!
Regarding the game itself, 1h30 to discover the two main modes: ball trap or western. In both cases, you will need to combine speed and precision. We grab, we shoulder, we aim, two shots, a reload, and a score that climbs if your reflexes and especially your composure follow.
The retro design has the right amount of wink without forcing the point
The game is accessible from 16 years old and while two compete, the others comment, observe, remake the world around a drink, until determine which of you is the best Shooter in the West.
One of PAN's points of honor is not to relinquish the bar to the background. No question of eating or drinking by default, also, the menu was designed with a Michelin-starred chef. It features simple but precise dishes, designed to accompany the game and to deliciously keep players waiting between two shooting sessions.
“We wanted to create a place where you can come as much for the game as for the setting. Not an arcade. A real place to live.” David Musset — The co-founder of PAN.
