Imagine being locked in a room — literally — with a group of friends, and the only thing that will set you free is successfully solving a puzzle. At Puzzle Room Austin, this could be your next Saturday night.
The current scenario that participants are charged with solving is dubbed Escape From the Super Villian’s Hideout. The premise is you’re being held captive by a bad guy called the Befuddler, who is planning a scheme that would wipe out the city, so it’s up to you and your group to save the day by solving a series of puzzles and codes. You have an hour to solve them, and if you make it, Puzzle Room staffers will take your photo and post it on their website!
Only 33% of the groups have won; the record so far has been 49 minutes. Participants have reported that the puzzle is challenging but not impossible to solve, and it makes for a great team-building activity or fun thing to do with friends for a bachelor party or birthday. After you’re done, you can easily make the 10-minute drive back to Elan East, or continue the party by hitting one of the bars or restaurants near the Puzzle Room. After all, a celebration might be in order if you’re successful! Puzzle Room Austin is open Thursday and Friday nights, and all day Saturdays and Sundays.
