Lambda would like to give you a chance to escape! We want to organize a trip to an escape room in Alexandria in late May but we need to know if you are interested.
Here’s how it works: A group ranging from two to 12 people is briefed on the storyline
by the “gamemaster.” The timer is set, the rules (such as no breaking stuff and there are no clues inside the electrical outlets) are recited, the door is shut, then it’s go time! Then, the group tears it apart, they have 45 minutes to look for clues and solve the riddle. There are locked suitcases — where to find the combination? Books — will one contain a hidden message? Broken clocks — should you pay attention to the time it’s stopped on? Mugs, flashlights, magnets, paintings, vases, sticky notes, watches, trench coats, wigs, compasses, lamps, board games, playing cards. And in them or on them or under them are clues and riddles and puzzles whose answers lead to a letter that means a number that points to another locked box, and that will lead you to another clue, and another clue! All the while, the clock is ticking.
Are you the first in your immediate family (including parents and/or siblings) to have a professional position in an office setting? If so, we would like to hear about your work experiences.
