Escape Room Meetup Groups

If you enjoy puzzles, then you need to try out the Escape Room experience. Escape Rooms provide a fun interactive game where you are ‘locked’ in a room and given a set time limit (usually an hour) during which you need to unearth hidden clues within the room that will enable you, and your team, to ‘escape’. It engages your ability to channel your inner Sherlock Holmes by solving puzzles and deciphering riddles within a controlled high-pressure environment. To fully enjoy the Escape Room experience, you need a team. If you do not have a ready crew of like-minded puzzle solvers, then Escape Room meet-up groups give you the opportunity to join up with fellow Escape Room enthusiasts and have fun together. This article will provide you with tips on where you can find the perfect Escape Room meet-up group and how to conduct yourself to ensure that you have fun.

1. Where do you find Escape Room meet-up groups?

The internet has been an invaluable resource in terms of creating a platform whereby like-minded individuals can form communities. If your friends do not share your passion for Escape Rooms or you are new to an area, a quick internet search will connect you with a meet-up group filled with individuals who want to share the Escape Room experience with you. Popular sites such as craigslist, meetup.com, Reddit, and Facebook are good places to start your meet-up group search. Some more established meet-up groups may have their own stand-alone community websites which can be accessed through a quick, region-specific, Google search.

2. How do you decide which meet-up group to join?

While finding a meet-up group is easy, finding the right meet-up group for you requires a bit more work. Each meet-up group has its own unique characters. If you are a more casual Escape Room enthusiast, then you might not have much fun linking up with a hypercompetitive meet-up group. Luckily, most online meet-up groups clearly communicate their objectives beforehand. You need to find a meet-up group that matches your competitiveness and difficulty level. If you are looking to make friends, find meet-up groups that have social meetings outside the Escape Room experience. Conversely, if you just want to enjoy an Escape Room session, you will be better served by a meet-up group that is more target-oriented and requires minimal social commitments.

3. Meet-up group etiquette

After you link up with your preferred meet-up group, ensure that you diligently meet all your responsibilities. Show up on time to Escape Room sessions and ensure that you have the required financial contributions so as not to be a burden to your teammates. Adhere to the spirit of the group, don’t be too over-bearing to your teammates in a more casual and fun group, and don’t adopt a laissez-faire attitude in a highly-competitive group.

4. What you will gain by joining a local meet-up group

The most obvious benefit of being in a meet-up group is that you will get to enjoy the experience with like-minded individuals. Other than that, you will also have the opportunity to make new friends, which is important if you are new in a city. You will also get the opportunity to improve your puzzle-solving skills by learning from your more experienced teammates.
