For remote play: Escape.Anywhere is a long-distance escape game played via Zoom. Guide your operator (“Player One”) through the game. Player One will act as your eyes, ears, and hands as you puzzle your way to victory. As you play, you can toggle between a first-person GoPro view and an inventory of detailed close-ups that are added as you discover new game elements. All games are private at a flat fee of $89 USD.

Games include:

Before Moonrise: While hiking through the woods, you and your companions are beset by a sudden storm. Taking shelter in an abandoned cabin, for a moment you enjoy the illusion of safety. But outside, the storm grows in strength, and the full moon begins to rise… Our newest and most innovative game, “Before Moonrise” (2–7 players) features demanding and complex puzzles in an exceptionally detailed immersive environment that will challenge your powers of observation and creative thinking.

The Crypt: You are members of the crew of a major upcoming movie, “The Crypt.” The director and the star, the famous has-been Holly Mayweather, have been acting strange lately, and odd things keep happening on set, so you’ve decided to sneak in late at night and see if you can find out what’s going on. You have one hour before the security guard comes back to make his rounds. Let’s see what you can find. Compelling décor marries a 1920s movie set with a foray into the occult in “The Crypt,” a game for 2–4 players. Some puzzles are straightforward; others require careful thought, strong intuition, and decisive teamwork. While this is not a horror experience, there are a few thrilling moments.

The Gallery: Your old friend, Kate, recently got a job at an up-and-coming art gallery in New Haven. Then, less than week into the new job, she disappeared! You’ve been very worried. Yesterday, a letter arrived at your doorstep from Kate; she says that she had to make herself scarce, and asks you not to go near her old workplace Naturally, the first thing you do is… break into the gallery! Can you find out what happened to your friend before Security arrives Intended for 2–6 players, “The Gallery” is packed with a variety of hands-on puzzles and sprinkled with the occasional curveball. It is a great choice for first-timers and experienced escape artists alike, especially if you enjoy the satisfying “click” of a lock opening up.

The Game Show: You have been given the opportunity to become one of the first-ever participants in an all-new game show! If at the end of 60 minutes you’ve scored more points than the other contestants, you have a shot at the grand prize: an all-expenses-paid trip to New Haven, Connecticut! “The Game Show” (recommended for 4–8 players) is a tech-driven experience full of bright colors and flashing lights, with a competitive aspect that will keep you on your toes. We’ve taken some design risks with this game in an effort to offer players something a little different — so keep an open mind, give it a whirl, and become the next contestant!
