On today's show, I look at how teachers can turn their classroom into a live escape room game. How best can you do this while ensuring the students are still learning? We look at general guidelines, put into context through an example escape room game I designed for learners, along with an exploration of why you might want to use escape room games and how you can do this.

Today we'll look at a virtual reality category called escape room games. We'll find out what features captivate players in this VR environment and how this is another portal in to the metaverse.
The entire 38th floor of the City's ‘Cheesegrater' skyscraper is set to be turned into an escape room game for stressed office workers to blow off steam.The building's owner, CC Land, says the idea is for co-workers to better collaborate and “have fun” together as they compete to win Crystal Maze-style tasks. Meanwhile at 22 Bishopsgate, the Square Mile's newest tower, bosses are offering “puppy yoga” - stretches plus dog cuddles - to try and boost colleagues' serotonin between IRL meetings and crunching spreadsheets.They are among strategies to try and tempt working-from-home staff back to the Covid-era physical office.That's on top of street food stalls, ice cream deliveries, craft classes and massages in what's the Times reports is the “hotelification” of workplaces, or “office 2.0”.It's no longer tech giants bringing high-end freebies to blur the lines between nine to five - now, many of traditional City firms are spending big on renting space with wellbeing extras.But does these techniques actually improve productivity or job satisfaction, and does anyone really want boss-approved good times in a “vertical village”?To find out more about stress-busting ideas being designed into offices of the near future, The Leader's joined by workplace wellbeing consultant Emma James, chief operating officer at Kamwell, an employee wellbeing company.

Go to Americas Escape Game Tampa I visited America's Escape Game in Tampa, FL to sharpen my MINDSET skills. I met with Jo Grieco, co-owner of America's Escape Game, and we discussed Escape Games. An Escape Game is a "hands on" activity for groups of people. As little as two people can "escape" as well as groups up to eight people. Children, 10 yrs. and older can participate. Jo has "escape artists," who will stay with the kids and help them with the challenges. Escape Games are a great activity for families, friends and co-workers.

Jo and her husband Vincent, have gone above and beyond to make the Escape Game a real and memorable experience.

You have an hour to finish your mission. My friends and I were in the PANDEMIC room. Our situation was that a "virus" has been released inside a laboratory, and scientists working on the virus have been killed by exposure to the virus. Our mission was to "secure the virus" and save humanity! WOW! What an experience! It took me and my buddies, Vicki Hewitt, Jason Hewitt - host of "History of the Brand" podcast and Rachel Haviland - host of "Reclaim Your Health" Podcast.....70 minutes to complete the mission!

This week we cover five different Escape Room Games. Listen for our commentary, but the summary is: EXIT the Game - Three current titles, three more announced. Fantastic games with the best puzzles, contents destroyed during play. In game Hints give solutions if you desire. Unlock! - Three current titles, three more announced. These are the hosts' favorite with their humor and fun. Extremely easy to reset for play by another group. Free App required. Escape the Room - Nathan and Brent played Mystery at the Stargazer's Manor and found it clever and fun, but much more simple than the previous two. Reset instructions online. Escape Room the Game - Core set comes with four different games, but the electronic device that is needed to solve and advance the game did not work properly for the hosts. Not recommended. Reset with a printer and less than 30 minutes. Escape Room in a Box: The Werewolf Experience - Huge fun that is pretty pricey and probably hard to find. Can be reset with a printer and a half hour of time, or so. Don't forget to pick up Ryan Decaria's book, Devil in the Microscope, available from Amazon, and check out Brent's Meeple Sing Shirts, also available through Amazon.
Puzzles and Mystery! This week, Anthony and Jason dive into puzzles and mysteries with a full rundown of solo play for all four major escape room games, including Exit, Unlock!, Escape Room the Game, and Escape the Room. We also look at the classic mystery solving game, Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective (the newer release with the Jack the Ripper mysteries). How do these games play, are they better solo or with other players, and most important of all, why do we always have to ask if a game will work solo? Why the stigma of playing a fun and perceived social game alone? Be sure to connect with us to further the conversation on BoardGameGeek (guild 1735), Twitter (@engn_podcast, @bgapodcast), and on Facebook (Solo Board Gamers Group and Board Gamers Anonymous).
We've all seen the hugely successful 90s TV show, The Crystal Maze, where contestants were locked into rooms and had to work out puzzles to get out of the room in time. Now this idea is being translated into real life Escape Rooms. Liane from XIT Live Escape Adventure in Clondalkin joined us on the line to explain the craze and its appeal.
