If there was randomness, you could offer "Free if you can escape in an hour!"

Otherwise someone could get the full experience by going in with the
instructions written down and pull it out of their pocket in the last five
minutes if they'd failed to escape.

These are awesome. I did a couple in Warsaw, one in Budapest and now one in
Prague.

I use it mostly as a 2nd/3rd date to find out how people handle
stress/cooperate, but they're really fun too.

We've been working with "escape room" game event organizers like SCRAP for a
while now. They're incredibly popular on our "Netflix for Events" service.
I've done a handful and can certainly attest to this "video games in real
life" trend in events from traditional scavenger hunts to a maze that you have
to solve from the third person. I love this intersection of technology and
real life entertainment. Folsom Street Foundry in SoMA has even started
hosting weekly social game nights on Tuesdays

There's an entertaining Spanish film called La Habitación de Fermat (Fermat's
Room) which deals with this.

"Four mathematicians who do not know each other are invited by a mysterious
host on the pretext of resolving a great enigma. The room in which they find
themselves turns out to be a shrinking room..."

Here's the trailer (w/ subs)

These are popular here in Taiwan, I think there's like 1 every day - held by
many different organizations. The concept's the same - solve puzzles before
the time runs outs.

Different organizations go to different lengths to make the activity feel more
immersive, some are great, some are meh. Sometimes the group is so big, it can
