Creatures on the Loose! puzzle game • Dec 28th in Chicago
Our newest game! It’s like an entire escape room packed into a briefcase. Teams of 8 will spend 90-120 minutes sifting through the contents of a briefcase (once they crack the lock), and solving 10 parallel puzzles. The briefcase is filled with custom, handmade puzzles, including a computer built just for this game. This is the first of what I hope to be a long series of these events, but I’ll only be able to do more if this one sells. It’s $29 per seat, and the winning team gets a round of pints. Read more about the game.
