Escape Room Decorum

Don’t Waste Time Doing These Things When Playing An Escape Room

Escape rooms are designed to be immersive and challenging experiences. To ensure everyone has a fun and enjoyable time, it's important to heed some unwritten escape room decorum. Here are our recommendations of what to avoid during your escape room adventure.

Avoid These Common Mistakes

• Don't Force It: While problem-solving is key, brute force isn't the answer. Avoid damaging props or trying to physically break through obstacles.

• Put Away Your Phone: Most escape rooms have a strict no phone policy. We do not. But we do believe it best to focus on the game and immerse yourself in the experience.

• Don't Be a Spoiler: If you've played the room before, avoid revealing clues or solutions to your teammates. Let them enjoy the challenge.

• Don't Ignore Your Teammates: Escape rooms are about collaboration. Listen to others' ideas and work together to solve puzzles.

• Don't Panic: Stay calm and collected. Panicking can hinder your problem-solving abilities.

• Don't Ignore Clues: Pay attention to details and use all the information provided. Clues are there to help you, so don't forget them once found.

By following these guidelines, you can help ensure a positive experience for yourself and your fellow players by understanding what not to do in an escape room. Remember, the goal is to have fun and work together to escape!
