How to Choose the Right Escape Room for You
Whether it’s your first time playing or you’re a seasoned pro, sometimes the hardest challenge can be choosing which escape room to play in the first place! If you’re struggling to decide what to book, here are some questions to help break down the decision.
How big is your group?
Some rooms are better for larger or smaller groups depending on factors such as Room Difficulty & Size, but the theme can also contribute to the type of décor and environment you might find yourself in.
What’s the group’s skill level?
A fun escape room is a fine balance when it comes to finding the right difficulty. Make sure to consider what kinds of puzzles each individual is good at and where your group might be weak in some places.
What kind of vibe is your group?
Are you celebrating a birthday, engaging in some team building, or just playing for fun? The intentions behind why you’re playing can help you determine whether you’ve found the right room for your next game.
Is the room family friendly?
If you’re planning on playing with younger players, or are one yourself, you may want to check if the room is suitable for certain ages. This may also vary from establishment to establishment.
Is the room accessible?
Escape rooms are for everyone to enjoy, but not all rooms are built equal. It may be best to check ahead if there might be any puzzles, clue, or interactive segments of the room that could be challenging due to whatever your concern may be (i.e. Sound related puzzles if you’re hard of hearing or climbing/standing for cane or wheelchair users)
I hope these questions can help narrow down which theme might be the best for your and your group! With all that in mind, remember to have fun and enjoy the challenge! Happy Escaping!
