As we’re close to opening our NINTH room, we thought we’d ask our Game Development whizz Paul a few questions about the process! Let’s delve into the world of Game Dev…

(mystical noises)

What’s the most important thing when you’re in the first stages of designing a room?

The most important thing would have to be coming up with a theme that is exciting and engaging with many possibilities of puzzles etc!

Do you find some of your own puzzles tricky?

The trickiest part of puzzles that you’ve designed yourself is being able to come up with the solution in the first place! You definitely have to work backwards.

What’s your FAVOURITE Breakout room and why?

My favourite room is Cursed Carnival! Easily because of the wide variety of style and the vibrant nature of the room décor.

Do you get to play the rooms you design?

Yes of course! Many times when we’re initially testing the rooms to make sure it all works! Afer the design process we get staff and bloggers to come down and play test games to make sure it’s ready to go!

Can you give us a little hint of what the new room is?!

You’ll have to keep an eye on our social media places for the announcement! If I was to give you a hint, I’d say you’ll need to be out before the sand timer runs out…

There we have it folks! Keep an eye on our socials for announcements on the newest room!
