Here’s a potentially controversial statement – an average escape room with a great game master provides a better experience than a remarkable escape room with an average game master. Christina posed this to me as a hypothesis, and thinking back to the most memorably bad experiences I’ve had, I have to agree. The top four or five experiences that came to mind all had issues with the game master.
May 11, 2019 – When it comes to escape rooms, I really dislike using the words “favorite” and “best.” Trying to rate rooms against each other is harder than comparing apples and oranges (apples are objectively better, by the way). But actions sometimes speak louder than words, and I will say this- Christina and I planned our trip to Denver around Rabbit Hole Recreation Services’ room #2, with literally nothing else planned on our trip. That should say something about what we thought of the first room, Ruins of the Mystic Temple.
The trip to Denver was wonderful, start to finish. Rabbit Hole’s second room did not disappoint, and in addition to three other escape rooms, Christina and I also managed to do some hiking, visit an interactive art exhibit, and stop at some of our favorite pit stops.
On the verge of returning to Denver for the first time since early November 2018, I noticed a strange quirk on my escape room tracker- I haven’t commented on any escape room experiences I completed since then! Since November I’ve been writing about experiences from earlier in 2018, of which I still have plenty more to document.
I know I’m a bit delinquent in posting a new puzzle this week, but this time around, I have a good reason- Christina and I are engaged! And before you ask, no, I did not propose in an escape room. 🙂
