Think you could design A virtual escape room? Have some experimental new ideas you want to try out? Think designing an online escape room would be fun?
The Virtual Escape Jam is a one-of-a-kind event hosted via the internet for anyone who loves playing, designing, and learning about escape-room-style challenges and puzzles, all while meeting new people and having a blast!
We’ll randomly put people in teams of 4-6, and together you’ll create and test your own 20-minute virtual escape room in this full-day workshop. Work with other creative folks to push the boundaries of immersive entertainment.
Get started with the help of structured prompts and guidance from Escape Jam facilitator extraordinaire Jeb Havens. Then get direct feedback and iterate as you watch other teams attempt your online escape room. Plus, you’ll get to play other teams’ rooms and give your feedback.
No experience necessary, open to anyone with an interest in escape rooms, immersive theater, board games, theme parks, DIY, video games, crafting, gameshows, storytelling, puzzles, etc…
You’ll walk away from the experience with:
