This is an escape room. This is a room in which you solve puzzles to escape, though it usually isn’t locked for safety reasons. They offer printable (play at home) escape rooms and traditional escape rooms. The themes for the traditional escape rooms are an Area 51 room, a catacombs room, a zombie apocalypse room, and a murder mystery room. Themes may vary, so check before getting set on one theme. A key difference between this one and many competitors is that rooms are private for your group.
