Can you escape (game/test)

AIBU to try this 'game'? - I think it could be fun.

Locked upstairs in a house, you need to escape.

Rules, only one instruction per person until the correct action has been identified.

I've already 'written' the way to escape - if it works then I will write a fuller version to play a different evening.

For example: (player/you) Open Window:

(me) There are no windows.

Not unreasonable but I feel we need more info about the situation. You say locked upstairs in a house. Can you give more details? Is the entire floor locked or just that room? Or just the house?

Access the bathroom for Bobby pin to try and pick the lock

IlikemyTeahot · 19/06/2018 22:17

look for the key?

Gamesmaster · 19/06/2018 22:18

The door is locked.

You have rolled back the carpet, there is nothing of interest there.

You try cutting a hole in the floor with your bare hands. it hurts and doesn't work.

If there are no windows, it is not a house.

Gamesmaster · 19/06/2018 22:19

You look for a key, there is one on a table in the corner

Phone a friend

Open something with the key

barnet · 19/06/2018 22:20

Look in the mirror, see what you saw.
Take the saw and cut the table into 2 halves. Two halves make a (w)hole.
Climb through the hole and escape

Gamesmaster · 19/06/2018 22:20

Liz70 - there are no windows... in this room.... does that satisfy your pedantry? :)

ScreamingValenta · 19/06/2018 22:21

Look up at ceiling to see if there is a ceiling.
