4.
Listen to what your gamemaster
says
Apart from familiarizing your
team with the entire escape
room, it is also important to
pay attention to what your
gamemaster says before the game.
You never know when your
gamemaster lets loose a little
hint about the gaming experience
while he talks about the rules
of the game! In the escape room
setup, the role of the host is
vital in the way they indirectly
push the players in the right
direction.
5.
Communicate seamlessly with your
entire team
Communication is one of the most
vital aspects to pay heed to for
players to win the game. All the
team members need to
continuously voice their
opinions and discoveries with
the rest of the team throughout
the entire game.
Only the team which is highly
vocal and continues to share
each other's discoveries and
ideas happen to have the highest
chances of winning the game.
Listening to what the other team
members have to say is also
essential before taking any
decision in the game. Not only
do your teammates need to voice
their opinions, but they also
need to listen to what the other
team members have to say in the
game.
6.
Do not spend excess time trying
to solve one riddle!
Often, newbies to the world of
escape games devote far too much
time to solving just one riddle.
It, in turn, often results in
teams having hardly any time
left to solve the rest of the
riddles in time. So, to avoid
this from happening, ensure that
none of your teammates end up
spending excessive time solving
just one riddle.
Instead, your team can properly
divide the entire time inside
the game room in a way that
there is sufficient time to
solve each of the riddles.
Leaving unsolved riddles for the
moment and coming back to them
later on in the game is a useful
strategy that many players adopt
in the game. It is only by
properly managing your time
inside the escape game that your
team can emerge victoriously!
7.
Be organized even as you play
the game
In most escape games, no two
objects can be of use to players
twice. So, to keep away from
wasting your time with the same
object more than once, decide on
a separate corner in the room to
keep them all together. In this
way, your team can prevent
wasting their time with the same
object.
Setting a corner to keep all the
objects that haven't yet served
any purpose can also be a useful
way to remain organized in the
game. In this way, your team
members would know where to look
for these objects and thereby
work in an organized way.
8.
All your team members must
contribute themselves
Each of your team members must
contribute equally to the game
and share their opinions. Escape
games are inherently team games,
so it is only by the cumulative
effort of all your team members
that you can hope to win!
Splitting up your entire team
into smaller fragments, with
each group searching a different
part of the room, can be
beneficial for your team to win.
By doing this, searching for
clues and puzzles in the escape
room becomes an easier task to
complete within the given time
frame.
9.
It is okay to ask for hints!
Often players let their egos
seize the best of themselves.
But DON'T! Inside an escape
room, more often than not,
players are found to back away
from asking for clues/hints. The
trick to winning an escape room
may often lie in asking for
hints strategically.
But, ensure that your team does
not start asking for hints from
the very start of the game! The
fun is an escape game is the
thrill of the chase, and the fun
is busted if you look for hints
from the very beginning.
With these few tips in mind, you
and your team are now ready to
ace the escape room experience
today! So, go ahead and book a
room for your team to play and
enjoy yourselves thoroughly!
