Putting a Pause on Escape Room Events

We would like to send out a sincere thank you to everyone in the Tri-City area for the last 7.5 years. We are very pleased to have run so many events and to have met and worked with all of you. We are no longer offering escape room events at this time. HOWEVER, if you are interested in taking over this business, please reach out! I have all the equipment and happy to provide training to help get you all set up in business.

A Very Twisted Thank You

When we first opened our doors and began a business offering escape room events ON LOCATION in people’s homes and places of business, we weren’t sure whether people would love the idea or hate it. But we DID know that our own kids loved escape rooms but struggled with not being able to have escape room birthday parties because the puzzles were all too hard for a group of kids under 16 years old to complete without adult help. And we wanted to offer a better alternative – so we tailor puzzles to the age of the players to ensure everyone has fun, and we let players play until completion (not cutting off gameplay after 60 minutes) because there is joy and satisfaction for players in solving all the puzzles, and we host events on site to avoid the hassle of driving all the players back and forth and interrupting the party. And our price per player is significantly lower than at brick and mortar establishments because parties shouldn’t cost an arm and a leg for kids to have fun.

And now we are more than six years into this business and we are grateful to all the wonderful groups that we have run events for. We are especially grateful for all the events so far this year; you have helped make this our most successful year ever. And yes – we know the year isn’t over yet. We are just that grateful 😉

More new puzzles!

One of our strengths at Twisted Traps is that we tailor the difficulty of each event based on the ages of our players, and we cater to players from 8 to 80 years old. However, we have noticed that this year in particular, we have been getting more requests to run events for players who are 8 to 9 years old. This inspired us to make a couple of new puzzles for our younger players that we have been trialing out over the last month with good success. We hope you enjoy them!
