Escape rooms have long become a popular leisure activity, but have you ever heard of outdoor escape rooms ? Escape This! offers a unique variant of the classic escape room that takes place virtually but also outside. In this blog we will outline the advantages and disadvantages of these new types of outdoor escape rooms so that you can decide which experience suits you best and whether it is worth a try.
Advantages:
-
Generous space : Outdoors there is more space to move around, making the gaming experience more dynamic and varied - especially with multiple people.
-
Fresh air and exercise : Outdoor exercise and fresh air invigorate the body and mind, resulting in an even more intense gaming experience.
-
Very flexible : the problem of classic escape rooms always being fully booked and early planning are eliminated.
-
Just something new : Every now and then you just feel like trying something new and it shouldn't be the tried and tested thing you've already played 100 times.
-
Price advantage : At just under €5 per person, it is a very good value experience compared to its competitor.
Disadvantages:
-
Weather dependency : Even though the game can be played flexibly at any time of the day or night and does not depend on a fixed day, outdoor escape rooms are dependent on the weather and can be less pleasant in bad weather.
-
External influences : Outdoors, unforeseen external influences such as noise, animals or passers-by can disrupt the gaming experience.
Conclusion: Choose the experience that suits you best, but first see for yourself!
