7 Awesome Excuses to Play an Escape Game

Not that you really need a reason or an excuse to play an escape game, but if you happen to be looking for one, the possibilities are endless! Whether you’re trying to plan a first date, a bachelorette party, or a team-building event, escape games are the perfect experience for any occasion. Here are just seven terrific reasons to play a game.

1.  Spending time with friends and family.

It’s finally the weekend and time to hang out with your friends! Try something different this weekend and play an escape game! You guys might do everything together, but are you willing to lock yourselves in a room together for a whole hour? Do you think you’d be able to communicate and work together well enough to escape the room? It’s time to really put your friendship to the test! Perhaps you’re looking for something fun and exciting to do together as a family? Not spending enough time together lately? An escape game is a perfect solution to really bring the family back together again.

2.  Corporate team-building.

An escape game is a perfect idea for corporate team-building, as you may have learned about in our previous blog, “Corporate Team-Building: The Ins and Outs, Ups and Downs, and Everything In Between.” Whether your team is just starting out, you’ve recently welcomed several new employees to the team, or you’ve been a team for quite a while but could use some gluing back together… an escape game is just what you need. Afterall, teamwork is essential when playing an escape game.

3.  Sports team-building.

Just as escape rooms are great for corporate team-building, they are also terrific for sports team-building. If you’ve got a small team, work together in one room to see if you’ve got what it takes to escape the room before the clock runs out to put your score up on a whole new type of scoreboard! Have a larger team? How about splitting up into two groups to see who escapes the fastest… or even at all!

4.  Date night.

Anniversary? First date? Third date? Never-get-out-of-the-house-without-the-kids-date? An escape game is perfect for any of these occasions. Playing a game as a first date is a great way to break the ice. No awkward silences or trying to figure out what to talk about. Your entire date is laid out for you. All you have to do is get along and have fun together! Or how about an anniversary date? What better way is there to celebrate another year together than to be forced to be in a locked room together! An escape game is certainly an anniversary date neither one of you will ever forget.

5.  Touring or traveling.

Are you new to the area - or just visiting perhaps - and trying to find something to do around here? While I’m sure there is certainly lots to do, experiencing an escape game should definitely be at the top of your list of things to do, as it is without-a-doubt a one-of-a-kind experience that is so very exciting and unique every single time. Whether you’re visiting from out of town or even another state, or simply looking for something new to do in your hometown, be sure to check out an escape room. You’ll be left wondering how on earth you’ve missed out on this for so long!

6.  Special occasions.

Birthday parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties, wedding parties, graduation parties, retirement parties… the list goes on and on. If you have something to celebrate, an escape game is a perfect way to do it. The wedding is completely planned and quickly approaching, and now it’s time to celebrate! Grab the girls (or guys), enjoy dinner at your favorite restaurant, partake in some karaoke, and then it’s time to really have some fun... with an escape game!

​7.  “Gamers” looking to play in the real world.

Whether it’s video games or board games that you spend all your time playing, it’s about time you prove to everyone out there that you’ve got what it takes to kick some butt in the real world! You may be at the top of the leaderboard in Call of Duty or Apples to Apples, but now it’s time to see how you do in a race against the clock! Think you can make it to the top of the leaderboard in an escape game?
