The Escape Artist is a live action brainteaser
The idea is that your group of up to 8 people are put in a room and given a short back-story to explain your mission, the rules, and how everything works...
The game is to uncover clues, find items such as keys or hidden messages, solve riddles, unravel brainteasers, crack codes, which, in combination lead to a solution or key that will allow your group to solve the puzzle.
You have one hour! Your team must work together or suffer in defeat! It truly requires all types and levels of thinking, intellect, and skill to beat the clock and win the game.
