ConTRAPtions Escape Rooms

The goal in a traditional escape room is too, well, escape the room. In most escape rooms, however, there is more to accomplish than merely escaping four walls. Some room scenarios involve time travel, saving the planet, disarming a bomb, or of course, stealing a diamond. The mission for players is to work together and pool brain power to accomplish the goal and beat the room.

The rewards of a good escape scenario are immense, not just for the owner but also for the player. For one well played hour, a player can get lost in a game so he or she physically moves and acts in real time and space, with other people. Not in cyberspace with faceless strangers, or the Internet’s truncated space. Not sitting on a couch, poised over a board game or where action cards truncate time.

No friends, too much time gaming on the internet can become all consuming in our already cluttered mortal lives. Time and space should become allies to our recreation and enjoyment. Friendships become stronger in the process when you play together in the same physical space! With the $$$? We think so.
