  1. Experience an exhilarating rush of excitement as you challenge yourself and your team to solve puzzles and escape the room before time runs out.
  2.  Strengthen your relationship with family and friends by working together and having fun.
  3.  Immerse yourself in a themed environment like a mad scientists lab, a dingy London basement, a Hawaiian beach party, a creepy cabin in the woods or even an adventure in space!
  4.  Break free of routine! Stimulate your imagination and creativity while enjoying the rare opportunity to play a new and different role.
  5.  Exercise your problem-solving ability, communication skills and memory by tackling all kinds of puzzles and mental challenges.

And here are some tips to winning an escape room:

– Choose your team wisely, try to determine each player’s strengths, and assign roles and responsibilities accordingly.

– Pick your chosen escape destination based upon your group’s collective interests and skill set.

– Pay close attention to your Game Master…really listen to their words…they could quietly drop a hint or give you a clue at any time.

– Communicate and listen to your teammates. Yell out loudly anything you find and anything you need. Remember, it’s all about teamwork so don’t work in a vacuum.

– Manage your time carefully.  Don’t spend too much time on any one puzzle and be sure to watch the clock…time has a mysterious way of moving faster when you’re racing against it!

– Stay calm. Don’t panic. Don’t give up. If you get stuck, ask for help from a team member or from your Game Master…or just switch to another puzzle.

– Search thoroughly, but remember that although it’s true that clues can be tricky to find…sometimes they’re hiding in plain sight.

– Divide and Conquer. Spread out your efforts. A good escape room will have many clue streams so don’t all focus the same puzzle.

– Stay organized. Remaining focused on the task at hand and keeping track of found clues in a tidy fashion will help you move faster through the game.

– Be mindful of numbers, symbols, patterns, or anything else that might possibly be relevant to the puzzles.

– Don’t break things or force things open. Please, use only gentle force and always respect the rules of the house.
