Escape room!!!!

I never thought getting locked up in a room and having to solve puzzles to escape would be fun but here I was planning to celebrate my birthday in an escape room. On 7th of May (My real birthday is on the 5th) my friends-( Tatvika, Aditi, Aditi( from spectra),Hamsikha , Nainika )and I  went to Gaming Galaxy. We put all our belongings in a locker and were ready to get going. We booked a pirate themed escape room .After clicking multiple pictures we went into the room. It was a eerie yet beautiful place. There were prison bars, multiple chests, maps, vessels, pipes, skeletons locks and so much more. We were briefed about the game- ruthless pirates had captured us and locked us up. However those pirates were away and we could escape and set ourselves free. We carefully listened to the rules and began the game. We took a flashlight and scoured the walls for clues.

We  racked our brains and worked together as a team(it was very chaotic cause we all had unique and completely different ideas and solutions to the puzzles) and opened up a secret door that lead us to another room. This room had multiple puzzles. Hints were displayed on the screens and we had to solve accordingly. It was extremely fun- the adrenaline was pumping through our veins and we kept on thinking on many inventive ideas that  kept us going. We collected various  interesting and puzzling clues, opened a variety of locks and trunks  and found multiple items that helped us escape all while the one hour timer was ticking. There were a couple of secret trap doors that could be activated by the clues. 


We used magnets and pulleys to solve the room. We finished the whole escape room in 57 minutes-.We all were so involved in the escape room that we hadn't realized the passage of time. The whole hour felt like 15 minutes of extreme fun and chaos.
