Are you being watched in an escape room?

The Eyes in the Sky: Gamemasters 

So, are you being watched in an escape room? Yup, you are. At Next-Gen, our Gamemasters use both video and audio equipment, including CCTV cameras in every room, to keep an eye on your session. Here's why:

  1. Safety: We want to make sure everyone's safe and having a blast.

  2. Rules: A friendly reminder if you're veering off the escape room's rules.

  3. Hints: Stuck? Our Gamemasters can toss you a hint to keep the fun going.

Um, What About the Awkward Stuff? 😬💏

We’ve seen some things—like couples getting way too cozy. Just remember, the cameras are rolling, so maybe save the smooches for after the game.

Feel Weird About It? 🤔

Some folks might find it odd initially, but trust us, once you're in the zone, solving puzzles, you'll forget about the cameras.

GM in the Room? Nah 🚫👤

Some escape rooms put a Gamemaster in the room with you. We haven’t gone that route—our players seem to prefer having the room all to themselves.

In Summary 🌟

Being watched in an escape room? Sure, but it's all for your benefit. So dive in, solve those puzzles, and let us worry about the rest.
