A game for 3 to 10 people
The game starts in a room. The partecipants find themelves in a building/labyrinth. They have exactly 30 minutes to find out how to escape, while a voice broadcasts hypnosis audios, that get more and more elaborate as time passes. If someone gets tranced while running, it become and hazard for other players, as it become a pawn of the voice in the labyrinth.
OMG I *love* this. I bet there could be ways to make this really happen.
Also, while it would be totally fun as a pure labyrinth, I could also imagine it being enjoyable in a more “Room Escape” type format, where maybe there are hidden panels or puzzles you need to solve to get out. Only it’s getting harder and harder to concentrate…
Maybe while searching for the (possibly literal) keys to escape, you keep finding other things that are pure distraction: a softly glowing cube with lights that keep changing, a spinning disk with a spiral on it (but maybe also zoetrope images that contain a clue, so you *need* to lookat them), a vibrator…
Perhaps some puzzles can only be bypassed by discarding an item of clothing…
Perhaps you find a set of collars that you *know* will make it *impossible* to escape (perhaps they’re invisible-fence shock collars) but the idea of putting them on seems more and more *sexy* somehow…
Maybe there’s the standard puzzle where you try to fit the pieces together, trying to rotate and fit each side to its match, but you kind of find yourself rotating one piece over and over again, a distant look in your eyes…
Maybe even after you complete the puzzle, there’s a little reward and the pictured image itself comes to life and starts spinning on its own, complete with a soft pulsing glow as you realize you’ve just completed your own helpful little…‘guide’.
Then there’s the computer with a password that’s on an audio tape that just repeats nonsense words in a soft whispery voice, and are you trying to pick up on what the password might be or listening a little *too* closely to what sounds like whispers behind the main track?
Oh! And one of the puzzles, which is just ten identical buttons in a row, but only one opens the door in front of you. It’s okay to just guess and press whatever button calls to you, even if it doesn’t open the door you get a nice buzzy fuzzy fizzy dizzy feeling in your head. And if you press it again you get a nice shiver at the base of your neck that seems to spread across your mind, and if you press it again your eyes almost roll up with pleasure, but that was almost and you want more, so it’s okay to press it again, and again and again and again.
That sense, as you sit there and push the button, that you’ve done well. You’ve won. You’ve succeeded at letting all that stress and tension escape you here, and isn’t that what an escape room is all about? You’ve found the solution. Good job.
Now if you can work with your friends and show them the solution you found, you’ll be able to all win together.
Won’t that feel nice? Won’t they be grateful?
You’d better get started. 😉
yesy eyyes yes yes yesy eys yes
Oh wow. Just… wow.
Ok, let me help. One of your friends has to put on headphones and listen to a nice, long, relaxing hypnosis file. This places the password you need to get past a door deep in their subconscious – they know it, but they don’t know they know it. The only way to get the password is for you to take a conveniently placed pocket watch and hypnotise them with it, making them reveal the password locked deep within their mind. But the whole time, that whispery, silky voice is playing throughout the room. Isn’t it nice, to help your friend relax? To help them submit? Doesn’t it feel good, knowing you can tell them what to do, and they have to obey? They seem so happy, so blissful. Why not help all your other friends relax the same way? That way, they could all feel good together. Kneeling at your feet.
oh geez
