Yeah, she's the real mastermind of this game, laughing at the dragons still trapped in the den. 😂 I bet right now, as we speak, she is developing hundreds of new ideas of escape rooms for this game!
Touker would've countered with 15% but free office space for a year. and the kid doesn't need office space to make more shitty power point slide shows.
I love that this guy has come up with an idea to make a profit out of people's boredom, but I can't stop wondering... Have people who bought this product ever played videogames before?
Yes I had one of these bought for my birthday as due to lockdown I couldn't celebrate there are many Applications I don't think your thinking off. It was flat to start off with but as you get into it, it does get better
If I liked escape rooms and I thought of this idea, I would have loaded Unity and created a great looking game. Problem is, I would have inadvertantly made it inacessible in the process. Without playing this game, I think it's USP is that you can easilly access it from any device that has a web browser. I can't see myself playing this game with my gaming friends, but if I liked escape rooms, I could potentially see myself playing this with my family.
He should be happy he made that much money with such a simple app. I honestly can't believe people are paying for this... As a web developer, this hurts to see
I'm currently playing it with my family and it really isn't good at all. It's all text based and there are no interactive puzzles, the pictures they give you as part of the clues are often too small to properly see them, We only got halfway through before we turned it off and downloaded a better escape game with actual fun puzzles, for free.
@@MF_JONES My mum knew I watched dragons den, saw that particular pitch in her news feed and figured she would buy it. I got roped into playing 😬 we still haven't finished it 😅
Exactly especially tej, kids could be playing escape across England across the world. Their repeat players new levels add-on costs for New e-gear, etools e-snacks, ...
Exactly my thoughts, I know he offers other games but I wouldn't keep buying game after game at £9 a pop. It's something you'd try for a bit of fun once (or twice maybe), I think 30% is pretty good.
The thing is that not all users of the Web know that. Films, music, software, it is all there for free (I know, not exactly the same). Lots of new/inexperienced users aren't aware of this.
I think he captured the moment where most of them wouldn't work anymore because they were made in Flash. I don't even know if new one are being made in e.g HTML 5.
@@AwesomeMetalBands I think it was literally made in Google Forms. It must have gone viral somewhere if people paid for it but it's not obvious where, it's not even mentioned in most places.
That was fools gold! If anything that’s too good to be true..well. I am surprised that the experts didn’t see through this. I think Peter, Tej and Deborah were spot on for rejecting it outright! This was BS of the highest order.
Think touka would be someone I could work for, love his enthusiasm and passion when dealing with the entrepreneurs. Also why does Deborah always look like she rolling a bugga lol
We did one of these cheap online escape rooms with my team (from another provider though and it was more advanced than the one presented in the den). The interface was quite cheap and nothing suuuuper special but it didn't really matter because the riddles were nice. The price was great 30€ for a group of 5. We spent around an hour in the escape room and had a fun time. We work for an IT company but the lack of a fancy interface didn't really matter. Of course, virtual reality etc would be amazing but also increase the price. I bought other tickets for an online girls night with my friends and another for my family. I think it is a fun thing to do for team building activities or after work events
I can't believe they thought it was such a good idea. He had a website with 2 photo's that would take all of 10 minutes to do. If it wasn't for lockdown he wouldn't have made anything lol
I think he should've waited for Touker to counter an offer! Deborah saying the idea fell flat well duh it's virtual what did you expect shooting lasers?
Most escape rooms are pretty boring and extremely corny. He made something topical for them to screw around in. That's really not bad and people pay for a lot of stupid crap. I can see people blowing money on that regularly.
It's a virtual game, shooting lasers wouldn't be so strange to be honest. Since it's virtual I would expect to see something the real world can't offer, not a white page with some text and clickable things
So the guy has no technical skills, made the most basic, shitty website with no apparent redeeming features and used internet adverts to sell it for £8 a pop?! Good on him!
touker was so excited. he would have helped not only fund, but developed and build the product. kid's smart and dumb at the same time. But good on making some scratch.

@@-b8683 Bc i'm not an entrepreneur who wants to start a business. This dude is selling something a primary school kid could make better, and is charging 300 for businesses? Mate, you can't tell me you'd actually invest in this steaming pile of actual manure.
I seriously don't believe the £50K numbers he talks about, considering the massive amount of escape room games on the app that are available to buy and free. If he did make that £50k in two weeks, very well done. But with lockdown over and things starting to get back to normal, this virtual escape room business isn't going to last. Really surprised by some of the dragons, feel like they've listened too much to the gift of the gab and been sucked right in, into something that's going to fade away very quickly now as we get back to normal.
Yea, but if he makes 400k next year he'll have already made back the 20k extra that Touker offered while still owning an extra 5% of his company for future years. (not that I'm saying it will make that, but I'm sure that's his mindset)
Idk if its a good representation of the real product but his demo looked like something from a not that great school project. Basically this is just a really bad video game. Good idea to make it for fun, but not a good product
I love that the BBC uploads new episodes, but man, they always have such good entrepeneurs. I need guys that forget the egg in the cooker, olive salespeople who hate the Spanish and first and foremost I want a woman on every building site in the UK.
It really depends on the type of business and the experience the dragon has in that field. In this case Touker was his best option, he was the most enthusiastic on the business idea and was suggesting fresh ideas too.
I know it's edited for time, but I hope when he received those offers he discussed it a bit more than it shows. For example, I would want to know if the dragon would give me any mentorship or guidance in their partnership with me personally or if I would just be accepting their money and continuing in business alone using some of their current contacts. What are those contact exactly? The fella was going to offer with a partnership (had the lady not already rejected it), so I believe his counteroffer would have been 50k for 11 to 14% of the business.
Fair play to him, but to get that to a high quality product is going to take a small team of developers a few months I would think, 30k definitely wouldn't be enough. Then also if/when the lockdown ends, people will want to do escape rooms in person again.
I can’t believe how excited and smiley they are about this basic point and click game lmao. I think if they saw Mario Kart or UNO they would shit their pants! Lmao
The website he's showing off looks garbage, for £8.99 you could get so many good group online experiences already, if this makes any significant money (enough to be a good return on investment), then there will undoubtedly be copycats of this, that will almost definitely do it better!
Peter Jones lol. Understand repeat sales are important, but what about the rest of the world. If his sales have done so well in such a short period with limited marketing, the business is definitely going places.
Would be popular if it was a high end escape rooms video game. Not a PowerPoint presentation, these type of puzzle solving games are in their millions all the web and in mobile apps
There's so much potential and avenues to explore. This business is at a very early phase and profiting as well as capturing and positioning towards a healthy proportion in the market is a objective that should be pursued!
But at the end of the day it is a business with a short deadline to make cash on an idea that cannot be protected from other publishers who are ready to do this right now and to a massive audience if they see proof that it'll make money. You could own the brand or even perhaps the escape room ip but who is to say that if I do an escape prison lockdown game that's not my own idea?
The main problem with this is that there are so many of these online escape rooms and other games. Many of them are free or really cheap. My co-workers and I play these things every week. The corporate market makes more sense long-term as a lot of people will still be working remotely and from home in the future. But then they should make it much more personal and exclusive as companies often don't care if it costs $200 or $500 or $2000. We did this sort of escape room thing online with some company that actually hired actors to be part of it for an hour and mess with us. This may seem less scalable, but it's super easy to get these actor (students) and you get to charge a few grand extra for one or two hours. And for the corporations it's much more interesting as the actors will use the company name, values, story, etc. Since he's not a developer, there's no way he's going to upgrade the site significantly in time before competition out-competes him.
50,000 isn't even enough to higher 1 high quality developer. You'd need at a very, very minimum a sinor full stack dev that has atleast some DevOps experience
I played call of duty and some soccer game with my mates and brother during lockdown. Now it was good craic. But the gaming was really all that interesting for me. I like this a whole house hold could be involved. Few beers have a laugh

I'm pretty sure touka has a lot of Office Space couldn't they be converted into escape rooms?
30k at 10%= 300k Evaluation. 50k at 15% 333k. He lost 33k valuation because of "lower shares".

Would be popular if it was a high end escape rooms video game. Not a PowerPoint presentation, these type of puzzle solving games are in their millions all the web and in mobile apps
Peter is just a giant child sometimes lmao.

I knew it would happen one day Harry Potter meets the Dragons of Greedor
Wow, Sarah! 👏
Dragons jizzing their pants 😂
I played this sort of thing before except its a full game. Its called Saw and it was on the Xbox 360. You can get it on ebay for a couple of £
Touker was the man for him
Pokémon WENT!
There's so much potential and avenues to explore.
This business is at a very early phase and profiting as well as capturing and positioning towards a healthy proportion in the market is a objective that should be pursued!
But at the end of the day it is a business with a short deadline to make cash on an idea that cannot be protected from other publishers who are ready to do this right now and to a massive audience if they see proof that it'll make money. You could own the brand or even perhaps the escape room ip but who is to say that if I do an escape prison lockdown game that's not my own idea?
The main problem with this is that there are so many of these online escape rooms and other games. Many of them are free or really cheap. My co-workers and I play these things every week.
The corporate market makes more sense long-term as a lot of people will still be working remotely and from home in the future. But then they should make it much more personal and exclusive as companies often don't care if it costs $200 or $500 or $2000. We did this sort of escape room thing online with some company that actually hired actors to be part of it for an hour and mess with us. This may seem less scalable, but it's super easy to get these actor (students) and you get to charge a few grand extra for one or two hours. And for the corporations it's much more interesting as the actors will use the company name, values, story, etc.
Since he's not a developer, there's no way he's going to upgrade the site significantly in time before competition out-competes him.
Although I'm not a fan of virtual stuff, the potential for advertising in different rooms, nfts, and blockchain also spring to mind.
50,000 isn't even enough to higher 1 high quality developer. You'd need at a very, very minimum a sinor full stack dev that has atleast some DevOps experience
*Hire
Touker 'you'll have 5 offers 😂
Peter is intelligent.
I played call of duty and some soccer game with my mates and brother during lockdown. Now it was good craic. But the gaming was really all that interesting for me. I like this a whole house hold could be involved. Few beers have a laugh
