Are you afraid of escape rooms? You shouldn't be!

There have been a lot of teams visiting us in recent years and we like to have a chat with players before and after the game. We are very pleased to see that the escape rooms of Code to Exit are fantastic experiences for players who are coming with fears, but let us also see what are the things most people are afraid of, especially before their very first game!

Program ideas for families during the half term

Students aren’t the only ones who have been longing for this year’s half term. We have a couple of rough months behind us and both children and parents are excited about the fact that now children will have some free time that allows them to spend time with their families. What is even better is that everything is slowly but steadily reopening, giving more space and ideas for a great family afternoon apart from board games and watching a film together at home. We couldn’t miss the opportunity to propose to you some activities (of course, including Manchester escape rooms) that you can do together during the half term as a family.

Unsolved mysterious messages

Unsolved mysterious messages

The history of cryptography is almost as old as the invention of writing. As written messages began to spread, there was an almost immediate need for them not to be understood by uninitiated eyes. The methods and codes used in the past are now easy to crack: the simplest is the letter shift method, or Caesar code. It looks like we’re pushing the letters of the ABC somewhere further away.

Dr. Scott Nicholson’s name may be familiar from Escape Room World Championships. He was the one who designed the final escape room. It is no coincidence that he has been asked to give some insights on personas needed for a successful escape game, as he studies and develops games and escape rooms with scientific thoroughness - all of which he also teaches at university. Professor of Game Design and Development - this is his exact title of Wilfrid Laurier University. So, if someone is, he knows escape games. That’s why we wanted to give you some of his insights about what types of players are needed in an adventure like this.
