Escape Sheffield - Tips for Putting Together Your Escape Room Team

You need to find a team for your Escape Room Games.

You’ve booked your escape games room and now you’re ready to put your team together. We can’t stress enough the importance of putting the right team together because if you don’t, you’ll have less chance of winning. We’d love you to have a fighting chance, so we’re going to give you some tips on how to get the right team together and that way, when you arrive, you’ll be ready to win the game. 

The Dabbler

The dabbler is someone who tinker’s about with everything from locks to furniture and will leave no stone unturned as he/she goes through everything in order to find a clue. This is good because the clues are hidden just about anywhere. You’ll need to have your eyes peeled and prepared to look up and down and around to find them. 

The Expert Delegator

The delegator is someone who won’t necessarily take much part in the game itself but rather look on from a distance while shouting out instructions. They’ll have worked out what needs to be done pretty early on and is prepared to shout out directives and encouragement while not actually taking part. 

The Coordinator

The organiser will be good at organising teams, people and objects, and you can bet they’ll be good at taking care of all the clues you find, and neatly placing them somewhere where you’ll be able to work through them once they’ll all been found. Someone you can trust to not lose anything and be perfectly adept at communicating to others what needs to be done to solve the clues. Communication is key in this game so better choose someone with organisation and communication skills in abundance.

The Clever One

That person of course will be the one who’s an expert at solving riddles and puzzles. Once they’ve been found, it’ll be this clever person who can unravel their mystery and solve them. They’ll be able to look at a problem in a variety of different ways and quickly come up with different workable solutions.

Escape Sheffield - What Type of Event is an Escape Room Good For?

If you’re interested in a game that is interactive, fun and exciting, then Escape Sheffield is definitely for you. We work hard to make it just right so when you come here, you’ll have a fantastic time.  You may have been thinking about coming for a while and you’ve wondered to yourself what type of an event an Escape Room is good for. We’d love to see you here, so we’ll tell you all about some of the groups of people we see come here, and hopefully it’ll make you want to try it out for yourself. 

Corporate teams.

The reason why corporate teams love Escape is because it’s the perfect way to assess skills which are essential for the workplace. If you want to create a team for a new project you have in mind, you could hand pick your potentials and bring them here to see who’s got the best skills. You’ll be able to see who needs more training, who is best for particular tasks. The most important skills are of course problem-solving, communication and logical/analytical skills – and it’s also a great way to get everyone together and out of the office.

Celebrations.

What do you want to celebrate? Perhaps it’s a birthday, anniversary, passing an exam or a driving test. Whatever it is, the Escape Room Games are the best way to celebrate a super special event. Find and solve the clues, win the game and then spend some quality time discussing it later at your favourite haunt, what’s not to love?

What NOT To Do in an Escape Room?

Let’s look at what not to do in an Escape Room so when you come here you will know the rules and have plenty of time left to simply enjoy yourself. By setting out the what-you-can-and-what-you-can’t-pretty-early-on, we know there’s plenty of time left for you to enjoy yourself. The next time you come to Escape Sheffield, you can just focus on enjoying yourself instead. 

Don’t touch means exactly that

We always tell our visitors to take notice of the “do not touch signs” - they’re there for a reason. Everything is set out in a particular way for a reason, to make the game more enjoyable and for you to be able to follow the instructions and flow of the game much easier. If you damage something you’ll be expected to pay for it, so be careful with what you see and look out for the signs. 

Breaking anything is a no-no if you can help it

The items in the room are placed there to enhance the experience, and to mimic the chosen theme as authentically as possible. Break something and it’ll ruin the experience for both of us and again, you’ll have to foot the bill. 

Don’t run off with anything

Yes, some of those items are brilliant, aren't they? It takes us a long time and tremendous hard work to create a themed room, so when we lose some of our items, no matter that we have more than one, it costs us money to replace it eventually. Eventually we run out of items and then we have to go out and buy some more, so please don’t, no matter how tempting. 

Please don’t climb

No, this is not a children’s park or the zoo, so please don't climb up everywhere. It’s really not necessary, you don’t have to climb over the furniture or the shelving or anything else that may look climbable. The reason for this is because we don’t make it necessary for anyone to have to climb. You can simply search where the clues are around the room where we’ve hidden them - in reasonably accessible areas. If you climb and you break something, well that won’t be good for you or us, plus please don’t turn up drunk as that wouldn’t be good either, especially if you’re then asked to leave.

The rules are there to keep you safe and it’s our number one priority to do so, so don’t make it difficult for us to do our job. That way you can have a great time and enjoy yourself without having to worry about doing yourself a mischief and being escorted out of the building!

Escape Sheffield - for the time of your life

So now you know, you can come here and enjoy the game, just the game without having to worry about anything else. While in the meantime, we can get on with our job of making sure the rooms are perfect for you and your team to play. We want you to have the time of your life while you’re here so obey the rules - and you will.
