Room Escape Artist

We travel to Massachusetts often, where we have family, but this time we’re planning ahead and hosting a meetup!

If you live in Greater Boston, or you happen to be in town too, we hope you’ll come out to Needham, Massachusetts, on Thursday, May 14th.

We are thrilled that Midnight Mansion has offered to host this event at their venue… which means this meetup is also an opportunity to learn about the next big immersive gaming experience coming to you in Greater Boston. They’ll be happy to give you a peek behind the scenes.

This meetup is a casual gathering for escape room players, owners, and creators to mingle and chat. It’s happening on Thursday, May 14th. Mark your calendar!

Midnight Mansion

Midnight Mansion is a creative technology and fabrication studio, founded by Victor Hung (creator of Boxaroo & Level99), that builds immersive, interactive experiences by blending storytelling with custom hardware and software. Their studio facility in Needham, MA combines office with fabrication and rapid prototyping space.

They have graciously offered to host this meetup. While we are visiting, Midnight Mansion may have some games and puzzles they’re currently prototyping for their new venue, Edge of Elsewhere. If you’re feeling puzzley, they’d love for you to help playtest! No pressure. Up to you!
