Gather in Impromptu Group Huddles for a Quest Game
Written by: team_aldous
While playing a quest game, there will be several situations when you will be puzzled as to what to do next. There is nothing wrong with doing that as it resets your strategy. You will certainly come into Escapehour with a strategy in mind and it can change from time to time when something unexpected suddenly gets thrown to your way. When that happens, you know you would want to change what you have planned. The big risk here is to waste a few minutes off the clock. However, if you think you have something special planned then there is noting wrong with calling for a huddle. It may prove to be a good idea when you suddenly do what is needed at the end. Besides, you would want to complete each task ahead of you. When you formulate a strategy before the quest game, you don't even know what the tasks are. Escapehour has the habit of changing the tasks all the time. When the time comes that someone spoils it on the Internet, they already know what to do. There are times when it is changed several times in one day. They won't even do much to change the game. Besides, the villain just needs to read from a script. No matter how much they say to not say any spoilers on the Internet, you know there are some people who would not care about that. There are a lot of insensitive people in this world.
The best way to avoid spoilers would be to stay off social media. We all know there are many nearby residents of Calgary and Edmonton who already did Escapehour. When they are done, they would not mind spoiling it to other people. However, they would have one less friend on Facebook but it is not that big of a deal anyway. Not everyone may be invited to the group huddles. The team could be divided into two teams. There can be one team that is in charge of looking for clues while another is checking the time. When the group is so big, everyone would want something to do. Nobody would want to be useless to the team as they would not feel good when the game is won. Each game presents a different set of rules so you make sure to follow that. One of them is leaving all your things at the locker room before the game starts.
