Update 10/10/23: Check out our interview with TERPECA creator Rich Bragg on The Reality Escape Pod.
Folks, it’s almost that time of year… time to nominate and vote for your favorite escape rooms in the world!
The Top Escape Rooms Project is an attempt to find the very best escape rooms in the world by leveraging the experience of the most experienced escape room enthusiasts in the world.
Nominations open in early October and voting opens early November. If you have played 100 or more escape rooms and you’re not yet registered, now is the time to join the project.

Why Vote
This is a community project that provides wonderful information for traveling escape room players. By nominating and voting for your favorite games, you’re sharing them more broadly. You’re helping others find and play them.
You need to have played 200 escape rooms to nominate or 100 escape rooms to vote.
Note, David and I share a vote on the TERPECA board. It is not our project, but we do our best to help guide it and we’re excited to see if grow.
Thank you!
To you, our Patreon backers, thank you for supporting us. We hope you’ll support TERPECA as well. So many of you have played more than 100 games, some of you in far flung places, and some of you across multiple states, countries, or even continents. All this experience helps this project be successful. Please join us in contributing to TERPECA!
Special shout out to those who joined this month: Dallas Nichols, Geneva Kaplan, Scott Chua, Tori J-B, flo tha, and Jason Adair
