The Infinite Escape Room

Very nearly the quickest solve we've ever had!

 

In the final regular episode from our Nottingham AirBnB recording, Jon takes the helm and delivers, without notes, what he believes to be a deceptively simple yet fiendish death trap puzzle...only for Jamie to figure it out within seconds. It isn't the fastest solve we've had but it came damn close.

Puzzle Maestro: Jon Saunders

Solvers: Mike Collins, Jamie Gibbs, Mairi Nolan

TLDR: The solvers find themselves inside a suspended cage, accompanied by dozens of rats. To leave means death, but the only means of escape is outside the cage.

The Infinite Escape Room is a comedy escape room podcast where a group of friends make and solve audio escape rooms. It's one part tabletop RPG, one part escape room with a bit of Monkey Island-style humour sprinkled over the top.

Somewhere in this room there's a secret! Go get up and find it!

Or as I like to call it: The one in which Jamie hosts an audio escape room set in an airBNB, whilst recording from the airBNB, in which we have to get up and find actual hidden things in the airBNB. It's airBNBception in here.

Will the solvers untie the knots in Notts in time? (K)not likely!

TLDR: The solvers find a physical locked box covered in knots, and have to solve the puzzles to open the box and recover the secret wine.

Join us deep within Robin's Hole, where it's time to pull up a cozy armchair and discuss this week's pubisode topic: When should escape rooms retire? We reflect on some of the recent real-life escape rooms we've played together in Nottingham and discuss the lifecycle of an escape room. How long should an escape room be open for? When should it be updated? When should it be retired? And how might an escape room's life be increased? If you're an owner, when do you retire your rooms?

As always, here are your recommendations for this month.

Jamie - Tears of Metal (videogame), think Dynasty Warriors, a comic book art style but set in medieval Scotland.

Mairi - The Fall (film), a trippy fairy tale of an adventure film.

Jon - The documentaries of Adam Curtis, and in particular, HyperNormalisation.

Mike - Knitting! In the background of whatever you're doing... And I quote: "It keeps your naughty hands busy"

The solvers find themselves in a series of strange caves deep underneath Nottingham. But they quickly realise these are no ordinary spaces as they seem to shift and transform on a whim.

Jamie, how big is the space?
Mike, where is the door located?
Jon, what are the walls made of?

The size of a key or the size of a football pitch? The door is on the ceiling and of course the walls are made of purrfectly normal materials. Right. Right?!

TLDR: The players walk through a series spaces and can choose the size, the material on the walls, and the way out.

Somewhere in the labyrinthine corridors of a recording studio, the solvers find themselves back and with a bigger challenge than ever: Find the cassettes and solve the puzzles to put on the ultimate BBC Radio 4 "kitchen drama". What else could possibly save the BBC from it's ten trillion pound debt, afterall? Also Jack Foley is locked in a cupboard.

This is a room which just proves that in the end, everything really is just foley.

TLDR: The Infinite Escape Room returns, the solvers use a variety of foley items to put on a BBC drama.
