What are escape rooms and how do they work?
Escape rooms are scenarios made by other people, and they are supposed to simulate a situation in which you need to “escape” from something. Sometimes it is about solving a mystery and sometimes you need to locate a murderer. There are many different escape rooms and they all provide a unique “problem” which you and your friends need to solve by really thinking hard and finding the necessary clues. Escape rooms are really challenging, but they are also tons of fun. Our recommendation is the St Louis Escape Room, so make sure to check what they have prepared for you.
Most of the escape rooms that you’ll find have a certain time period in which you and your friends need to solve the problem and escape before you fail. Nothing really happens if you don’t solve the problem in time, you just won’t know the final ending and won’t get the full experience of the escape room. So, make sure that you get as creative as possible and sharpen your detective senses.

Each escape room has a different scenario and is set in a different environment. For those who love some horror vibes, there are many scary escape rooms, some of them are based on famous movie titles such as Saw. We’ve visited a Saw-themed escape room and it was tons of fun! The point was to escape from a certain situation in which Jigsaw put you, while one of your friends is blindfolded and put in a bathtub. You need to save him in order to escape. We won’t be revealing any more than that, and we’ll leave it up to you.
For those of you that easily get scared and don’t like horror stuff all that much, there are other scenarios that are more adventurous or detective-like. For example, at St Louis Escape Room there is a scenario in which you need to escape from an island by boarding a ship before the volcano explodes and drowns you all in lava. So, make sure to pick the one you and your friends will like the most, go out there and have tons of fun! You will definitely not regret it.
