Parabox - Escape the Room

Parabox is an Escape Room - Live Escape Game. An adventure game involving a team of at least two people who are locked in a thematic space and must use their content to solve puzzles, find items and manage to escape from the room to ninety minutes. The game starts with the acquaintance of the players with Game Master. Game Master informs players of what happens next, gives them some instructions and their roles in the game. Then the door closes and time counts. Players start searching in the room looking for items that lead them to the solution of the first puzzle that can lead them in one direction. The solution to the puzzle will lead them somewhere else. It may be the code to open a lock, a piece of another puzzle, a door that will lead them to another room or just a misleading to distract. If the team gets stuck, there is a way to get some indirect help from Game Master to continue. As time passes the puzzles become more complex and some of them give details to solve the last puzzle that will lead them to find the key that opens the escape door. At the end of the game Game Master meets with the players to answer questions and questions about the puzzles. "It seems that something else is out there. Games involving a form of experience. What remained outside the equation was the human body and the face to face interaction. I think we are seeing a return to these important qualities. " Frank Lance (Director of the NYU Game Center)
