I own/run an escape room business. These are great tips! Had to giggle over almost all of them... how many times has the clue given been "Look through the books!" or "Don't overcomplicate it". But for owners, I have to say that replacing those stupid combo locks when they first start to fail is key to keeping things a great experience for clients. It's a $5-$10 expense that saves SO MUCH pain for the players, game masters and your reputation. I can't count how many times that people who have done our rooms that complain about other rooms where a lock didn't work. Do weekly checks! (same thing with batteries and markers) Also: Directional locks are the work of the devil - they fail often and early. We do directional puzzles, but they are capacitive touch or buttons with a raspberry pi or trinket to run. So much more reliable.
ever presume the game master wants you to lose? Nope, they want you to be challenged. We tend to want players to see and understand all our cool puzzles. My personal favorite tip: leave keys in their locks. I've been giving that tip to all my players for years
These are all huge tips. My family and I have used them all in the 20+ escape rooms we have done. I even picked up a few pointers in making an escape room. Love your content!
@@LegacyEscapeBox we are far from pros but we do work really well together. We'd love to do a show sometime but it may be a challenge to get us all in one place long enough. 😁 that's what happens when your kids grow up.
My daughrter and I LOVE doing these, 1 for 2 so far. Thanks for tips, we DEF yell out to eachother often. And Mrs. Foley, 7th grade, The Bronx, Holy Family School About above across after against along among around at, before behind below beside between beyond by, down during, except, for from, in into, like, near, on off over, through to toward, under until, with within without. EVERY DAY OF 7TH GRADE.
"What if you're the only one in the room?" Still communicate. I've played games solo and it's a very different experience, but you still have to talk. You're thinking out loud but moreover you're enabling the GM to keep track of where you're up to.
Anyone else wanna put their fellow employees/employers through an escape room to see if they can get out? I think it would ahow hiw good of a company that place is.

Every time the word "Clue" is mentioned, my mind hears South Park's Hardly Boys saying it.
So was the don't touch the stuffed animal a clue?

Myself and my partner are reaching out 348th escape room and it is crazy we have an escape rate of 320 out of 338

Thanks for the vid
I've done multiple escape rooms by myself! 🤣
Of course!! Epic!! I guess when you’ve done hundreds of them you’re bound to have some solos in there 🔑
I’m doing my first one today

Anyone else wanna put their fellow employees/employers through an escape room to see if they can get out? I think it would ahow hiw good of a company that place is.
