At Room Escape Artist, we write about escape rooms 365 days a year. It’s a lot of content… so we’ve decided to help you out with a monthly column that highlights the strongest and most interesting content that we put out each month.
Upcoming Livestream
You’re invited to tune in to next week’s Livestream to learn what’s next for our events. We will:
- share our vision for RECON 23 and beyond
- talk about upcoming Escape, Immerse, Explore Tours
- tease Season 5 of the Reality Escape Pod
- answer questions from chat
Details: Tuesday, January 3 at 9:00pm Eastern
