Tickets On Sale Now: 2020 Virtual Escape Jam – Spooky Edition

In just two weeks, we’re hosting our second Virtual Escape Jam… and this time, it’s themed for October!

The first Virtual Escape Jam, hosted as part of RECON ’20 Global in August, demonstrated the potential for this type of collaboration over the internet. We’re excited to be bringing it back, with improvements! (We learned a lot from running this virtually back in August.)

  • Your team will design a spooky escape room – the creativity that we saw last time was incredible
  • You’ll be mentored by escape room professionals
  • We’ll help you practice rapid design and iteration techniques
  • You will meet and work with other people who love escape rooms as much as you do

At the first virtual escape jam, I was impressed by how the teams adapted the constraints of internet play into features of their games. The games were fun, funny, and creative.

Perhaps more importantly, random teams facilitated serendipitous industry connections. An intense day of collaboration with like-minded individuals leads to new horizons.

  1. Will you be covering ways to create and maintain tension during the game? I’m most intrigued by this element in the horror genre. If you are, I’m totally in!
