Lots of little bits of news floating about lately… In particular, Seattle is flush with escape-style games!
NEW: Puzzle Break Seattle
There is a new escape game in town, and it’s called Puzzle Break. Games started in late November and ticketing is available through the end of January so far. Word on the street is that it’s really fun and well-run. I’ll be playing this Saturday with Mr. Cryptica and a non-puzzling friend.
REG: Escape from the Werewolf Village to run in Seattle
And if you want even more escaping action, Real Escape Game has you covered with their Seattle debut in January! Escape from the Werewolf Village was REG’s first US/San Francisco Game, which has since appeared in Los Angeles and will now make a brief run in Seattle on January 18th and 19th. (Unfortunately for me, this is MIT Mystery Hunt weekend and I’ll be out of town. But hopefully this is good news for the future!)
Puzzled Pint Now in London
First it was DASH, now London is the proud host of Puzzled Pint! Londoners can now enjoy puzzling in pubs every second Tuesday of each month. What city will join in next?
