1,000 Escape Rooms 🤯

by David Spira, posted in Culture, Patreon

This week, we hit 1,000 escape rooms… and it comes with a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions. Before I dive into them, I’ll answer the question that many of you are wondering:

What game was your 1,000th?

The Depths from The Escape Game. They just opened up a new location near our home in New Jersey. It’s at the American Dream Mall in the Meadowlands. That mall is a bonkers place with a theme park, a water park, an indoor ski slope, and all sorts of other crazy things.

It has also been under construction for most of my life… I think construction began back in the mid 90s. It was weird finally setting foot inside.

This year the REA team has traveled extensively… and largely to regions we haven’t covered before. We’re so excited to tell you about some phenomenal games, many of which you may not be familiar with.

The awards feature REA writers: Andrew Reynolds, Brett Kuehner, Joel Smileypeacefun, Kate Wastl, Matthew Stein, Peih-Gee Law, Richard Burns, Sarah Mendez, Theresa Wagner, and Lisa & David.

Many other writers contributed to determining the winners and articulating the brilliance in these games.
