  50. <h2>Reno&#8230; Are You Ready To Experience Keystone Escape Games?</h2>
  51. <p>The world&#8217;s biggest little city is a mecca for activity-seekers and escape rooms top the list of fun things to do in our city. We introduced Keystone Escape Games to the <a href="https://www.kayak.com/Reno.7128.guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reno&#8217;s &#8220;to-do&#8221; scene</a> in October 2019 and quickly became <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/keystone-escape-games-reviews/">Reno&#8217;s highest-rated escape game</a> (425+ five-star reviews as of April 2021).</p>
  52. <p>But first, here&#8217;s a little history on how we got to be one of the most sought-after activities in the city. We&#8217;re not just another escape room. It has always been our mission to to be the best escape room experience in Reno. We&#8217;re here to shake up the Reno escape room experience and we&#8217;re doing it one room at a time! </p>
  53. <p>Our first escape room to open was The Blood of the Original. This game is a <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/blood-of-the-original/">unique, immersive vampire-inspired story</a> – where the group will explore Sir Moriston&#8217;s victorian steampuck private study in search of the original vampires blood.  They only have 61 minutes to find all the clues, solve all the puzzles, and escape. It is available for bookings, family gatherings, birthday party reservations, and is perfect for your next <a href="https://small-business-forum.com/best-team-building-activities-for-small-businesses/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">team building event</a>.</p>

  55. <h2>Opening An Escape Room In Reno – Why We Did It</h2>
  56. <p>My wife Lacey and I experienced several puzzle rooms in the past, fell in love with them, and thought this would be a fun business to operate. First and foremost, we are enthusiasts who simply enjoy the puzzle room experience. When we started this journey, we had done over 100 rooms.</p>
  57. <p>So why do I think we’re qualified to build a new puzzle room in Reno? Tons of reasons! I have a fair bit of technical training and figured why not. Lacey comes from a very artistic background and, yep, off we went.</p>
  58. <blockquote>
  59. <p><em><span style="font-size: 13pt;"><strong>It is our goal to create rooms we would like to play.</strong></span></em></p>
  60. </blockquote>
  61. <p>It is our goal to create rooms we would like to play. We have worked with and continue to meet many great people in this process. We have learned so much about set design, game flow, what not to do, could just go on and on. Much more than we ever anticipated. In fact, it’s been downright fantastic!</p>
  62. <p>Going from a player to a game developer has been a wonderful challenge, to say the least. Ultimately when we have completed our games and the players have played our first rooms, we hope, they and hopefully you will agree.</p>
  63. <p style="text-align: center;"><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1CyU8u8oFGc" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
  64. <h2 style="color: black;">Building An Escape Room – The Process</h2>
  65. <blockquote>
  66. <p><em><span style="font-size: 13pt;"><strong>Each room takes between six to nine months to complete. We build everything ourselves. We also write the stories and develop the gameplay. It&#8217;s no small task.</strong></span></em></p>
  67. </blockquote>
  68. <p>Additionally, we have more big plans for this place. We&#8217;re currently working on four more rooms. But as you can imagine, this is no easy task.</p>
  69. <p>With the amount of effort we put into the props, puzzles, and electronics, each room can take some time to complete. In fact, each room takes between six to nine months to complete. After all, we&#8217;re not hiring a huge team. We build everything ourselves. Finally and most impressively, we also write the stories and develop the gameplay. It&#8217;s no small task. However, we love doing it. We hope you&#8217;ll love it too!</p>
  70. <p>Before we first open the doors, we tested the game for several weeks. We make many tweeks and changes after observe players completing the game,  all in attempt to make the experience as fun, smooth and immersive as possible. The result? A really fun escape room experience for Reno locals and visitors alike. We built this puzzle room with immersion in mind. And that goes for all our future games as well. We want you to be immersed in another world from the moment you walk in the door.</p>
  71. <p>With each new room we open, we plan to up the ante. We’re making things cool and more complex each time. We have a real passion for this work and we can’t wait for you to try your hand at our escape games.</p>

  98. <p>As avid escape game players ourselves, this is a passion project for our family. To date, we&#8217;ve played hundreds of escape rooms all over the country. Our family absolutely loves them! I guess that should go without saying. And we’re not finished. We have plans to play many more.</p>
  99. <p>Now, we’re bringing our passion directly to the Reno escape game scene. In other words, expect the best of the best from <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/">Keystone Escape Games</a>. We hope to be the most immersive puzzle room in the area. But that’s not all! We’ve got some big ideas and an amazing creative team of imagineers to make our dream a reality.</p>
  100. <p>We have some seriously awesome plans in the works for our escape games.  Currently, we’re in the process of working on our next game, Dragon-Alley. Additionally, we’re planning and developing rooms Deep Space and  Strain Z. We have no doubt they’re all going to be awesome.</p>

  131. <div class="article__content-group">
  132. <p>Here are a few escape room tips to help you do well and enjoy the experience and game.</p>
  133. <h3>1. Look and Search <em>Everywhere</em></h3>
  134. <h4>     1.2 Notice Inputs</h4>
  135. <h4>     1.3 Don&#8217;t stop at the first thing you find.</h4>
  136. <h4>     1.4  Look High and Low, Not Just at Eye Level</h4>
  137. <h3>2. Communication Is Key</h3>
  138. <h3>3. Think Inside the Room</h3>
  139. <h3>4. &#8220;SWITCH&#8221;</h3>
  140. <h3>5. Place Stuff You&#8217;ve Found</h3>
  141. <h3>6. Have A Discard Pile</h3>
  142. <h3>7. Know the rules</h3>
  143. <h3>8. Don&#8217;t Shy Away from Clues</h3>
  144. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  145. <h2>1. Look and Search &#8220;<em>Everywhere&#8221;</em></h2>
  146. <p>Let&#8217;s start with the escape room tips in searching for an Escape Room is to search everywhere, <strong><em>not kidding</em></strong>. It doesn’t take long and you don&#8217;t want to miss anything that may help in solving the puzzles or miss finding the key to open the creepy cabinet on the wall to see what&#8217;s inside.<br /><span style="font-weight: 400;">You&#8217;ll especially want to notice items that relate to each other, i.e. a map and a compass or a fuse and a power panel. </span></p>
  147. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  148. <h2>1.2 Notice Inputs &#8220;You know what you&#8217;re looking for&#8221;</h2>
  149. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Noticing inputs or solves, such as locks and whether the combinations are a 4-digit number or 5-letters, is super helpful. For example, the turning of a pillar, or some sort of switch that can be moved up or down should be noted for sure, so when you find a clue that has up and down indications. you&#8217;ll know right where they go. If the column contains symbols, you may want to think, &#8220;what relates to these symbols and how can I get an order?&#8221; For the switches, “do I see something that relates to up/down or off/on?”  </span></p>
  150. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you locate or are given a story with directions or city names, it&#8217;s a really good idea to notice a globe, map, or something that has north, south, east, or (you guessed it) west appearing upon it, a direction puzzle is most likely heading your way. </span></p>
  151. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This process can assist in understanding what you&#8217;re looking for in the solution. As you find clues and information, knowing the input helps to recognize whether clues are useful or needed at the moment. Simply put, </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">you know what you&#8217;re looking for</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
  152. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  153. <h2>1.3 Don&#8217;t stop at the first thing you find.</h2>
  154. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don&#8217;t stop at the first thing you find. (This is something we have difficulty with, we get excited.) Search, note, and collect what you found, then </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">keep going.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Simply locating one of the three things you&#8217;ll be wanting to see or collect isn&#8217;t all that helpful.</span></p>
  155. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Use this technique</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">—</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">some people go left, some go right. Then, don&#8217;t stop when you meet in the middle, but continue around and search what has been, or what you </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">think</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> has been searched already.</span></p>
  156. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For example, that nail you found maybe a button. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Why didn&#8217;t I press the darn button? Oops, it even says ‘press’!”</span></p>
  157. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It&#8217;s amazing how a different set of eyes will recognize and find clues missed at first glance.</span></p>
  158. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And don’t forget to make sure the group knows what everyone has found! </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Speaking of which.</span></p>

  160. <h2>1.4 Look High and Low, Not Just at Eye Level</h2>
  161. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We consider ourselves, not the best searchers. Then watching players in our escape room I realized we fell for the trap.  Eye-level is just too easy, so make sure to work the whole room both high and low. Things often get placed where you wouldn&#8217;t think to look.</span></p>
  162. <p>&nbsp;</p>

  164. <div class="article__content-group">
  165. <h2>2. Communication Is Key</h2>
  166. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Escape rooms are a group experience (</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">I suppose you could do one by yourself if they let you, but most people don&#8217;t</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">) and when you do anything with a group, having clear lines of communication is essential to your success.</span></p>
  167. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you find an object, call out to the rest of your group to let them know what it was. To help reduce chaos use a collection spot (see Tip #6).</span></p>
  168. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When you solve a riddle or puzzle let your team know what you were awarded. Oftentimes it&#8217;s the piece someone else needs for what </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">they</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are looking at. Be prepared to let everyone know how you figured it out</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">—</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">We all want to know what you did.</span></i></p>
  169. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  170. <h2>3. Think Inside the Room</h2>
  171. <p><span data-preserver-spaces="true">What makes escape rooms such a unique experience is </span><a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://medium.com/swlh/the-science-of-storytelling-why-we-love-stories-fceb3464d4c3" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span data-preserver-spaces="true">the stories that come with them</span></a><span data-preserver-spaces="true">. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most escape rooms come with a story or a theme. While these stories help to heighten the sense of urgency that makes escape rooms so thrilling, they also can play a role in the puzzles you&#8217;ll be solving. When playing an escape room, make sure to keep the main parts of the story in mind, as they may be essential in cracking codes or solving riddles.</span></p>
  172. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For example: if the game is laboratory-themed, you may want to look for test tubes and or specimen jars. Noting if there are slight differences in them that will produce a pattern. ie; colors, number of items, or simply numbers that show up (maybe using a black light flashlight).</span></p>
  173. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  174. <h2>4. &#8220;SWITCH&#8221;</h2>
  175. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the best escape room tip can offer is to </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><em><strong>SWITCH</strong> </em>roles within a puzzle. When working together on a puzzle-like one person reading directions to the other, or trying over and over (and over again) to get a combo lock to work—switch spots!</span></p>
  176. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After struggling to get the wires in the right place or move the maze pieces around, my wife will call “switch!” (This is </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">usually her</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, as I&#8217;m sometimes too stubborn). We exchange spots and go to town. This works great, as now we both have an understanding of what the other was/is trying to accomplish, and our communication is much enhanced in fact this works both as an escape room and life. &#8220;Try it&#8217;s a miracle&#8221;</span></p>
  177. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  178. <h2>5. Place Stuff You&#8217;ve Found</h2>
  179. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Find a spot, like a table or a desk, to place the stuff you have found. Taking just a little time to group items is huge. For example, things like maps and compasses or small pictures that may have the same frame are great to keep together while figuring out what to do with them. </span></p>
  180. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Combine this tactic </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">along</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> with communicating the items as you find them.  </span>Make sure to flip items over and check the back. We have been caught on this a few times.</p>
  181. <p><b>Expert Tip:</b> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Always</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> flip over an </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">hourglass</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">. It&#8217;s amazing what can be hidden in the sand.</span></p>
  182. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  183. <h2>6. Have A Discard Pile</h2>
  184. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Have a discard pile for used items after solving a puzzle. This way, your group won’t accidentally keep looking at the same thing over and over.</span></p>
  185. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  186. <h2>7. Know the Rules</h2>
  187. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A game master will explain the rules of the escape room such as, “Don’t touch stickers or that there is nothing under chairs and the like. While super fun to look at anyway, it probably won&#8217;t help complete the game.  Also, and very important is to understand how to get clues, you don&#8217;t want to find yourself yelling at the wall for help &#8211; to then find out there is a button that needed pressing. Also, the GM’s will go over how to use any locks that you may not be familiar with, “trust me” pay attention to this. which leads us to the last hint and maybe the most important. </span></p>
  188. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  189. <h2>8. Don&#8217;t Shy Away from Hints</h2>
  190. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You&#8217;re going up against the clock.  Anytime you get stuck, and stop working toward your goal, the clock starts winning.    </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">When you have the ability to ask</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> for hints, use them to your advantage.   </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">If your group gets stuck for more than a few minutes, ask for a hint. Getting a few hints is much better than not completing the game altogether.</span></p>
  191. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  192. <h2>Take Your Skills for a Test Run</h2>
  193. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Escape rooms are thrilling experiences, and now you have so good escape room tips and knowledge that can help you to complete the game in the allotted time and &#8220;win&#8221;.</span></p>
  194. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By following these escape room tips, you&#8217;ll be able to take on any convoluted code your game throws your way.</span></p>

  227. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Pop Quiz: What fun gaming activity has become so popular across the U.S. that it&#8217;s grown by over 9,000% in just under 5 years? </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Baseball? Hockey? Skiing? Snowboarding? Bowling? The answer: None of the above! Whatever the craze is, there&#8217;s no escaping it!</span></p>
  228. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">The correct answer: The fun activity we’re talking about, that’s really on fire right now, are Escape Rooms (also known as &#8220;escape games&#8221;).</span></p>
  229. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Just a short while ago, in 2014 to be precise, there were just 22 escape rooms in America. However, today, that number has grown to 2,000…and counting! And the escape room mania isn’t just confined to the US. It is a global phenomenon. In the U.K., for instance, the <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/games/2019/apr/01/get-out-how-escape-rooms-became-a-global-craze" target="_blank" rel="noopener">number of escape rooms has blossomed to 1,500</a> – and growing.</span></p>
  230. <blockquote>
  231. <p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 13pt; color: #000000;">The number of escape rooms has blossomed to 1,500 – and growing.</span></strong></em></p>
  232. </blockquote>
  233. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">And, if you think about where else escape room fun has spread, consider the <a href="https://www.redbull.com/gb-en/events/red-bull-escape-room-world-championships-final" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Red Bull Escape Room championship games</a>. Here, more than 23 teams from across the globe took part. Additionally, the “fire” has spread across the world. Escape games are popping up in Croatia, Estonia, Latvia, and Slovakia. Also, Britain, Belgium, France, and Greece are all feeling the burn. Even teams from India, Turkey, and Azerbaijan have jumped in on the action.</span></p>
  234. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-24670" src="https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/playing-reno-escape-game.jpg" alt="couple playing an escape room in Reno NV" width="675" height="450" srcset="https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/playing-reno-escape-game.jpg 675w, https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/playing-reno-escape-game-480x320.jpg 480w" sizes="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 675px, 100vw" /></span></p>
  235. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">A search for the hashtag “#escaperoom” on Instagram gets you over 1.7M posts and counting – now isn’t that a trip! Escape room enthusiasts from every continent of the globe are jumping right in, completing “escaping missions”. Finally, they&#8217;re posting pictures of some of the proudest moments in their lives.</span></p>
  236. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">But how popular are escape-themed games and escape rooms across the USA? And which part of this vast country has the most ardent fans of escape room fun and games? Well, let’s just look at a <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?geo=US&amp;q=escape%20room">Google Trend statistic</a> for “escape room”. That’ll give us a hint to answering both those questions. However, be prepared. The answer may surprise you – or perhaps not!</span></p>
  237. <blockquote>
  238. <p><em><strong><span style="font-size: 13pt; color: #000000;">Nevada is the escape room capital of the United States.</span></strong></em></p>
  239. </blockquote>
  240. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">It turns out that Nevada is the escape room capital of the United States. Yep! The Silver State is the undisputed king of escape games.</span></p>
  241. <h2><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: 18pt;">What Is An Escape Room Like?</span></span></h2>
  242. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Consider finding yourself locked in a room. With a bunch of other individuals. Escaping your current “home” in under 60-minutes is imperative. If not, any of the following could happen:</span></p>
  243. <ul>
  244. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">An evil entity could destroy civilization as we know it today, and impose its wicked regime on us</span></li>
  245. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">The whole of mankind could be wiped out forever</span></li>
  246. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">A crime or mystery, about which clues abound all around you – hidden yet in plain sight – could go undetected or unsolved</span></li>
  247. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Or worse yet, you could all die a horrible death!</span></li>
  248. </ul>
  249. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">The ingenuity of man and womankind is such that, when faced with any of these eventualities, we all band together to resolve the seemingly unresolvable. It is in such circumstances that humans will usually step up their game. Frequently, they&#8217;ll triumph over adversity.</span></p>
  250. <h3><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: #000000;">Escape Games Provide You Just That Kind Of Opportunity!</span></h3>
  251. <ul>
  252. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">First, use logic.</span></li>
  253. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Second, deduce clues.</span></li>
  254. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Third, follow your intuition.</span></li>
  255. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Fourth, meticulously observe your surroundings.</span></li>
  256. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Fifth, think outside the box (or, in this case, outside the Room!)</span></li>
  257. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Finally, bring your powers of persuasion to bear and convince others to follow your lead.</span></li>
  258. </ul>
  259. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">The escape rooms transport you into a situation or environment, like a mythical dungeon, a medieval castle, an intriguing and enchanted cave, from which you must escape. While early iterations of escape rooms simply had players find a hidden key (or other concealed object) they used to unlock the door, some of the best escape games today have a theme or a story attached to them.</span></p>
  260. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Today, it’s not just about finding an object anymore – there’s more…much more!</span></p>
  261. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-15176" src="https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med-1024x885.jpg" alt="what is an escape room like in Reno?" width="695" height="600" srcset="https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med-1024x885.jpg 1024w, https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med-300x259.jpg 300w, https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med-768x663.jpg 768w, https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med-1080x933.jpg 1080w, https://escaperoomreno.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/Room-pic-desk-and-coffin-med.jpg 1521w" sizes="(max-width: 695px) 100vw, 695px" /></span></p>
  262. <h2><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: #000000;">What Makes It Fun?</span></h2>
  263. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Let’s face it: Who wants to find themselves locked up in a windowless, seemingly un-escapable room, and given a deadline – typically 60-minutes &#8211; to solve a mystery, crack a puzzle or find their way out?  Well, judging from the over 9,000% spike in popularity of escape rooms across the United States, we’d say there’s an entire population of thrill-seekers that want to taste a piece of escape room action. And once you’ve sampled the goodies, there’s no turning back &#8211; EVER!</span></p>
  264. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Today’s aspiring escape artists face a whole array of mind-boggling riddles, puzzles, and mysteries in order to unlock their way out. Alternately, some escape games incorporate specific themes or story-lines, with costumes and real or mythical characters thrown into the mix – fun, scary, and spooky!  And when you top all that up with the exceptionally well-designed high-tech-driven environment, amazing sound effects, and acoustics, it all adds up to deliver an immersive experience that’ll blow your mind!</span></p>
  265. <h2>The Thrilling Part</h2>
  266. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Part of the thrill is in showing off your puzzle-solving prowess in front of friends, family, and colleagues. And then, there are the frequent adrenaline hits that participants experience each time they get nearer to finding their way out, or closer to saving the world – or at least they think that’s what they’ve achieved! But vanity aside, there are many reasons that escape rooms in Reno and the rest of the U.S.A. have grown in popularity:</span></p>
  267. <ul>
  268. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">With their emphasis on safety first, there’re really few safer pastimes than escape room fun</span></li>
  269. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Unlike rock climbing and miniature golfing, the technology and special effects of escape games takes you beyond the realm of the here and now, and transport you to mythical places that everyone loves</span></li>
  270. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">There’s a heightened sense of bonding with family and friends when you play together</span></li>
  271. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Locked in an enclosed space, knowing you only have each other’s wits and skills to count on to pull off an escape, is probably the best way to sharpen a sense of comradery among friends and co-workers</span></li>
  272. </ul>
  273. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">The shared experience, which serves to bring teams of players together, is probably what really motivates thousands to gravitate to escape games. That, and the fact that there’s so much fun and excitement in the escape room – even though you are (make-belief of course!) fighting for your very survival. But there’s also the anticipation of the moment of glory, your photo-op at the end of the escape, that makes it an activity worth escaping into.</span></p>
  274. <h2><span style="font-size: 18pt; color: #000000;">Fun Escape Room Occasions</span></h2>
  275. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Having read everything that we’ve said so far, you may think dabbling in escape games is fun – but only on a lazy Saturday evening when you have nothing else to do. Well, while time will certainly fly by when locked up in your escape room, boredom is not the only reason why thousands of escape gamers turn to their favorite fun activity:</span></p>
  276. <ul>
  277. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Escaping from reality:</strong> Tired of same-ole-same-ole? Reading a book. Going to a movie. Visiting a museum? Well, escape games are a great way to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. Escape the real world and get into a third, fourth, or even fifth dimension and have fun. They also make a great <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/date-night-escape-room/">date night for couples</a>.</span></li>
  278. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Pulling the team together:</strong> As the boss lady or team leader of a group of new entrants to the company, putting everyone into a locked room to solve a common challenge is a great team-building exercise.</span></li>
  279. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Building family connections:</strong> We all have family disconnections every now and then. But what happens if a group of family members work together, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, to take on a challenge head-on and “live” to tell the tale? Family unity is what it’s called.</span></li>
  280. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Feting up the holidays:</strong> Don’t just attend an Independence Day parade or a traditional holiday lunch and call it quits. Try getting your family and friends to join you in an escape room, and do something radically different this year. It’ll become your new holiday tradition – guaranteed!</span></li>
  281. </ul>
  282. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Escape room fun isn’t just about “play” anymore. There are so many dimensions to participating in escape games, especially with the immersive experiences offered, that they can become part of any occasion you might think of. From class reunions to celebrating a clinched deal, and from girl’s night out to bachelor or stag parties, escape games like <a style="color: #000000;" href="https://escaperoomreno.net/blood-of-the-original/">Blood of the Original</a> offer something for all occasions.</span></p>
  283. <h2 style="color: black;">Safety First, Escaping Second</h2>
  284. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">No matter what the occasion is, you can find a reason to pull a group of friends, neighbors, family members, and work colleagues to celebrate or let off steam at a Reno escape room. And in case you’re wondering if the experience is safe for novice players, the answer is a resounding YES!</span></p>
  285. <ul>
  286. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">There’s so much safety around the rooms. You never have to fear being hit by a projectile moving at over 100 MPH like you could at a ball game!</span></li>
  287. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">They don’t EVER lock the rooms – there’s always a known path for escaping. The organizers brief players about this before you are “locked” in.</span></li>
  288. <li><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">High-tech surveillance, such as videos, cameras, and manned screens, monitor everything that goes on inside the room. If the organizers suspect even the slightest hint of an issue, they’ll immediately intervene to “rescue” you.</span></li>
  289. </ul>
  290. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Best of all, because real-life humans constantly have eyes on you, you can call for help anytime you want out! There’s no fear of a disorderly stampede with no chance of escaping. After all, this isn&#8217;t a crazy concert or rowdy ball game.</span></p>
  291. <h2 style="color: black;">Escape Room 101 For Beginners</h2>
  292. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Escape rooms are a place where you can really let down all your inhibitions and have fun. It’s great to be in a place that gives you the ambiance of moving into another realm. It’s thrilling to have the opportunity to match wits with demons and goblins to save the world. And, it’s even heart-stopping when you methodically work out clues to solve a puzzle. Finally, you triumph in escaping the room or rooms you&#8217;re held captive in.</span></p>
  293. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">But to really kick it up a notch on the fun-o-meter, you need to get into the groove of things…and here’s how you can do just that:</span></p>
  294. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Friendly Escape: </strong>While you could always hook up with other escape game players to have fun, it’s even more fun to do so with a group of friends and colleagues. At <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/">Keystone Escape Games</a> you can give our Blood of the Original game a try with anywhere between 2 and 6 players. The more the merrier!</span></h3>
  295. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Dress for an Escape:</strong> While there is no escape room dress code per se – not even if you are playing with your boss and colleagues at your Brokerage or Banking institution where you work – it helps to dress casually and comfy. With all the hustling, running, and jostling that you’ll need to do as the clock ticks down, perhaps a 3-piece suit or high-heels may not be the best dress for escape?</span></h3>
  296. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Escaping together:</strong> Even though you may be the smartest kid on the escape team, don’t underestimate the power of working together. Sometimes, that vial of “green stuff” your teammate pointed to, that you just dismissed, may actually be the key to your escape – and saving the world!</span></h3>
  297. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>360<sup>o</sup> Escape:</strong> Escape rooms are built with one plan in mind – to deceive and confuse you. If you waste precious minutes looking for the “hidden” key under the doormat or buried in the planter outside the door, you may not make it out alive. Look all around you – up, down, sideways, and even in your hand. The “key” might just be the title of the book you’ve been carrying around since you found it when you solved your last hurdle.</span></h3>
  298. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Storied Escaping:</strong> In every escape room, you’ll encounter an underlying theme or story. In Blood of the Original, the goal is to recover the historic blood that was stolen by an eccentric collector. While the game has lots to distract you, the success of your quest depends on you always keeping in mind the key elements of the story, theme, or mission.</span></h3>
  299. <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;"><strong>Broad-based Escaping Strategy: </strong>Remember, the clocks start ticking from the moment you say “go” – so you need to be nimble in executing your escape. The best way to accomplish your objective and get everyone out alive is to use a broad-based strategy and fan out across the room for clues. That way, you’ll find clues quicker than you would if everyone looked under the same rock at the same time!</span></h3>
  300. <h2 style="color: black;">Give It A Try</h2>
  301. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Just follow these simple rules of escape game participation and you’re guaranteed to come out the other side and pose for a happy, smiling photo-op to post on your Facebook or Instagram page. However, even if you lose, you still win, because you’ll have loads of fun with friends and family by your side. And that’s what’s making escape rooms so much of a craze, not just here in the USA, but around the world!</span></p>
  302. <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">So, why not head on out to an <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/">escape room</a> right now, and book your next adventure. Escaping is critical before time runs out! This might be your last chance for you and your team of escape gamers to save your Blaga covenant from the dreads of mortality! or you can give an <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/gift-certificates/">Escape Room Gift Certificates</a>.</p>

  348. <p>Keep reading to discover 5 reasons escape games are an amazing idea for a date and building a stronger bond.</p>
  349. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  350. <h3>1. You&#8217;ll Have More Fun</h3>
  351. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  352. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  353. <p>Instead of a cliche &#8216;dinner and movie&#8217; date, take your date on a fun adventure. Escape rooms are much more entertaining than a movie you may not even like, and you can still sit down for a drink afterward to talk about it.</p>
  354. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  355. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  356. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  357. <p>The game isn&#8217;t about winning, though you do have to figure out your escape. It&#8217;s about spending time together and doing something fun and memorable.</p>
  358. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  359. <h3>2. You&#8217;ll Make Great Memories</h3>
  360. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  361. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  362. <p>Dates are a great way to get to know someone and <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/more-chemistry/201108/relationship-chemistry-can-science-explain-instant-connections" target="_blank" rel="noopener">see if you click</a>. The type of date you choose can determine how you&#8217;ll vibe with that person. For example, there&#8217;s hardly anything memorable in a dinner and movie date, but successfully solving an escape room is one for the books.</p>
  363. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  364. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  365. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  366. <p>By doing an escape challenge together, you&#8217;ll make great memories and a great story to tell your friends and future children.</p>
  367. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  368. <h3>3. You&#8217;ll Work As A Team</h3>
  369. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  370. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  371. <p>Teamwork makes the dream work! Choose an escape game that&#8217;s suitable for couples to discover how you two work as a team. This is a great way to see if you&#8217;re a good fit for starting a relationship because it takes a team effort to have a healthy partnership.</p>
  372. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  373. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  374. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  375. <p>Couples who have been together for a while can use escape rooms to bond and practice problem solving together.</p>
  376. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  377. <h3>4. You&#8217;ll Build Communication Skills</h3>
  378. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  379. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  380. <p>If you&#8217;re on a first date with someone, you want to get to know each other better. Solving riddles and clues requires effective communication with your partner in order to actually escape the room.</p>
  381. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  382. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  383. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  384. <p>If you&#8217;re not comfortable with small talk or are a little shy, working on a solution together will help you break the ice.</p>
  385. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  386. <h3>5. You&#8217;ll Show Your Adventurous Side</h3>
  387. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  388. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  389. <p>Whether it&#8217;s your first date or you&#8217;ve gone our several times, going for an escape adventure will show your date an adventurous side of you. It means you know how to have fun, spice things up, and aren&#8217;t afraid of a challenge.</p>
  390. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  391. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  392. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  393. <p>Adventure is much needed in relationships to keep them fresh and fun, so don&#8217;t hold back and choose the most exhilarating game available.</p>
  394. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  395. <h2>Plan Your Next Date Night With Us!</h2>
  396. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  397. <p><!-- divi:paragraph --></p>
  398. <p>Whether you&#8217;re trying to impress someone on a first date or want to add a little adventure into your long-term relationship, solving riddles and mysteries together will take your dating life to the next level.</p>

  433. <div class="et_pb_text_inner"><h2>Fun In Reno-Sparks: Why An Escape Room Tops The List</h2>
  434. <p>From winter skiing and riverside walks to historical museums and art galleries, <a href="https://www.visitrenotahoe.com/things-to-do/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reno has a lot to offer</a>. But one of the best things that&#8217;s jumped to popularity in the &#8220;biggest little city&#8221; is the escape room craze!</p>
  435. <p>And it&#8217;s not just Reno. In 2014 there were only 22 escape rooms throughout the whole of the US. <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/11/business/escape-room-small-business.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Now there are over 2000!</a></p>
  436. <p>Why try the Houdini experience for your next outing? Are escape rooms fun?</p>
  437. <p>Read on and you&#8217;ll be ready to experience a puzzling escape room in Reno.</p>
  438. <p>Are you ready? Let&#8217;s solve this case!</p>
  439. <h2>1. Challenge Accepted</h2>
  440. <p>In a &#8220;try to escape&#8221; game, you can enjoy a uniquely challenging experience. Each clue and puzzle will cause you to think outside the box, as you&#8217;ve never done before.</p>
  441. <p>Not only do you have to solve the clues, but you have a time limit too. This will give you an adrenaline rush without any danger involved.</p>
  442. <h2>2. Bring Your Fantasies To Life</h2>
  443. <p>When you&#8217;re watching mystery TV shows, such as Sherlock or CSI, you may sit there and think, &#8220;I could have solved that&#8221;. Now you have the chance to step into virtual reality and become the mystery solver yourself!</p>
  444. <p>You have the opportunity to encounter scenarios and spooky atmospheres that you won&#8217;t experience in real life. It really is like stepping into a video game.</p>
  445. <h2>3. A Treat For The Brain</h2>
  446. <p>Just as your body needs exercise, so does your brain. <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/brain-workout/200904/puzzles-and-the-brain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Research confirms</a> that doing puzzles releases satisfying chemical dopamine into your brain. This can:</p>
  447. <ul>
  448. <li>Improve your mood</li>
  449. <li>Heighten your concentration</li>
  450. <li>Sharpen your memory</li>
  451. <li>Increase problem-solving skills</li>
  452. <li>Help you to develop better social skills</li>
  453. </ul>
  454. <p>Yes, escape rooms are basically giant puzzles that can exercise your brain.</p>
  455. <h2>4. Bonding Time</h2>
  456. <p>You could even try making an escape room a <a href="https://www.articledepot.net/family-bonding-activities/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fun family bonding session</a> or a team building exercise for your workmates.</p>
  457. <p>Working together to try to escape is an awesome way to bond with your group. Why? Because it&#8217;s IMPOSSIBLE to get out alone—you need to work together!</p>
  458. <p>So, if your kids are always arguing with each other, get them to work together. Or if your colleagues find it hard to help each other out, arrange an escape room to build up team spirit.</p>
  459. <p>Instead of working against each other, everyone needs to work together to achieve the common goal—to try to escape!</p>
  460. <h2>5. Ditch The Digital</h2>
  461. <p>While most things are getting more and more digital, especially as tv and your phone become more predominant, the opportunity for face-to-face human interaction becomes more valuable. <a href="https://www.vox.com/authors/rani-molla" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to a 2019 article in Vox By Rani Molla</a>, Americans spend 3 ½ hours a day on their mobile devices. Additionally, they spend up to 11 hours of total media. And don’t forget. That’s 2019 numbers! That doesn’t take the pandemic into consideration. And considering the effects COVID has had on all our lives, it’s not unreasonable to assume those numbers have doubled if not tripled in 2020.</p>
  462. <p>With that said, it’s easy to understand why a brief un-plug is more than due. Escape games are the answer! In-fact, escape rooms demand or at least ask that you leave your phone behind for the hour. When a puzzle room does its job, it can transport you and your team to another time and space. It’s an unforgettable experience and one that becomes more necessary by the day.</p>
  463. <p>In the same vein, escape rooms also provide a real tactile and engaging experience. One thing’s for sure. Escape rooms are not a passive activity. In fact, you’ll be urged to think out of the box, use your head, and work together in a cooperative way to win. As GoodNet.org puts it, “when you are working on puzzles, you are engaging both sides (of your brain) and giving your brain a real mental workout.” As well as “puzzles invigorate our brains, but they are also very relaxing”. And well, who can’t use more relaxation.</p>
  464. <h2>6. It&#8217;s Safe (And Good For Mental Health)</h2>
  465. <p>In an article from Piedmont Healthcare, “seeing people from outside your household boosts your emotional well-being. By allowing you to spend time with others in a controlled setting helps you socialize while staying safer.” Going out into the world which most often involved being surrounded by people you have never met before can be scary. Quality escape rooms like <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/">Keystone Escape Games</a> only offer private games. Therefore, you’ve assured a fun and safe experience. It’s just what the doctor ordered.</p>
  466. <p>The way escape games are run with breaks in between groups allows for cleaning and sanitization before each group begins. This allows the players to feel comfortable while playing. Compared to just about anything else, like shopping or eating at a restaurant, the limited quantity of people that inhabited the area of escape rooms is incredibly small. In other words, this ensures a safe gaming experience.</p>
  467. <h2>The Game Is On!</h2>
  468. <p>But, most importantly, are escape rooms fun? YES!</p>
  469. <p>This one&#8217;s a no-brainer. If the other 6 reasons don&#8217;t motivate you, why not just try to escape for FUN!</p>
  470. <p>It&#8217;s so easy to get caught up in the mundane day-to-day realities of life. A &#8220;try to escape game&#8221; can give you the chance to let your hair down and enjoy yourself. You won&#8217;t get the same thrill visiting a museum, right?</p>
  471. <p>Are you ready to get your Sherlock on? Come on Watson, the game is on!</p>
  472. <p>If you&#8217;re looking for an <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/">escape room in Reno</a>, you&#8217;ve come to the right place. From ancient tombs to Sherlock&#8217;s adventures, we have a unique range of puzzle rooms for you to solve. <a href="https://escaperoomreno.net/booking/">Book your experience today</a>!</p></div>
