If you never tried an escape room game you're in for a treat! \; Escape room games are a physical adventure where players work together to solve puzzles usin g clues and whatever strategy works best. \; To add to the challenge\, players are given a set time to solve the solution that will lead to the key out. \; There is no grand prize\, just the thrill of being able to outsmart the designers of the room and be the first to escape the room be fore the other teams do.
\nBreakout of the Haunted House
\nIt was a warm and quiet night\, as two teens sat off to the side of the library&rsquo\;s front doors.&nbs p\; Will was scrolling through a Youtube feed\, while Peter drank his big gulp. \; Strangely\, so out of place\, they heard a moan.
\n&ldquo\;Was that you\,&rdquo\; Peter asked.
\n&ldquo\;What was me?&rdquo\;
\n&ldquo\;That sound&hellip\;?&rdquo\;
\nThey stood still\, listening harder. \; There was a shuffling noise and heavy breathing. \; They looked at each othe r. \; Then the noises stopped. \; They lifted their heads\, above them was a sign that read\, &ldquo\;Alachua Branch Library\,&rdquo\; and a dark window.
\n&ldquo\;I think there&r squo\;s someone in there\,&rdquo\; Will said.
\nThe street lights flickered but stayed on\, mostly. \; Will s macked Peter on the chest\, pointing to a shadow moving across the window above their heads. \; They stood up to peer inside. \; That&rsquo\ ;s when they saw a Thing. \; A rotting Thing\, its jaw bone dangling a s it whispered\, &ldquo\;Where&rsquo\;s my toe?&rdquo\;
\nPlot:
\ nThere&rsquo\;s a Thing locked in the libr ary. \; Do you dare to find out what it is? \; Inspired by the sto ries told in &ldquo\;Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark\,&rdquo\; comes the Alachua&rsquo\;s Branch&rsquo\;s Haunted House. \; You have 20 minute s to sort out the clues and find the key to set you free before the creatu re finds you!
