Crystal Maze experiences give escape room trend a boost
Escape Rooms have grown in popularity as a fun, immersive entertainment experience. The games are set in a themed room and a team of players are (metaphorically) locked in and must work together to solve a series of puzzles.
There are a variety of themes to choose from. You could opt for an adventure-based game inspired by Sherlock or James Bond. Or you could play a game based on a sci-fi or horror movie.
These rooms have gained a lot of popularity since they were first introduced, especially among teens. A great advantage of these rooms is that they can be played by families with kids, groups of friends of almost any age, co-workers, couples, etc.
To date, there have been 145 escape rooms in the UK, ranging from pubs and disused underground stations to castles and leisure schemes. This number is expected to grow to 200 by 2020.
FDNY cracks down on escape room sites in the city
The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) has begun a crackdown on escape rooms sites in the city. The move is prompted by recent reports of a fire at a location in Poland that killed five teenage girls.
A task force was established by FDNY to assess the safety of local escape rooms. At least 21 "escape room" venues have been shut down or given violation orders, according to news reports.
One of the most prominent was the Amazing Escape Room, located at 585 North Gannon Avenue in Willowbrook. A task force visited the site and found several violations. Some of the violations involved improper paperwork, and others were a result of faulty exits and fire safety concerns.
FDNY also investigated four other escape room locations, partially shuttering three of them. Two of these were cited for unsafe exits, while another was closed because of inadequate egress routes.
FDNY's investigation revealed some of the most common infractions, including inadequate fire extinguishers, lack of emergency evacuation routes, and a lack of sprinklers. Another, the Elude the Illusionist, combines physical puzzles with a narrative that makes sense.
Although escape rooms were a hit with the public in the early years, they have gained more popularity in recent years. They're fun and affordable.
