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.

Ooo use a table leg to smash through the loft and climb onto the roof? Would it be possible to smash through a roof like that?

SneakyGremlins · 19/06/2018 22:53

This is a very dull property. What're the neighbours like?

MollyHuaCha · 19/06/2018 22:53

Use your mobile phone to call for an Uber?

Walk through loft and look for exit?

Gamesmaster · 19/06/2018 22:55

OnlyBaBaBiss If you break the table you wont be able to reach the loft

Oh yeah ... 🤔

LaContessaDiPlump · 19/06/2018 22:56

Is there a window in the loft? If so, attempt to open it.

acornsandnuts · 19/06/2018 22:56

Take the water into the lift

acornsandnuts · 19/06/2018 22:56

Loft

Use the matches to search the second dark room for anything interesting

Set fire to clothes die a slow death wondering why the OP started this

’You smell the burnt match, it smells nice.’. Grin

Have you lit a match in the dark room yet? If not, do so now.

OwlinaTree · 19/06/2018 22:58

Sidestep left! Sidestep left! Don't drink the poison!

For the nightmare fans out thereGrin

Can you walk around and see if there is another loft hatch to get down through?

KreigersClones · 19/06/2018 22:59

So is the loft definitely empty? Or does it appear to be empty?

PurpleRobe · 19/06/2018 23:00

Take the match and search the dark hall way for something else. What do we see? Another door?

fruitbrewhaha · 19/06/2018 23:01

This is a very dull property. What're the neighbours like?

They have parked on your drive.
After having a late night noisy party.
And trimming your hedges.

SneakyGremlins · 19/06/2018 23:01

Is the furniture invisible?

SneakyGremlins · 19/06/2018 23:02

fruitbrew simultaneously?

OnlyBaBaBiss · 19/06/2018 23:02

Ok so if there are 2 adjoining rooms with no windows that can’t be the original shape of the house, so a part of some of the walls must be false, use a table leg to smash the hollow sounding bit of the wall

... most of my answers seem to be about smashing shit up, maybe I’m not the intended audience BlushGrin

PlateOfBiscuits · 19/06/2018 23:03

SneakyGremlins maybe it was a hedge trimming party.

OnlyBaBaBiss · 19/06/2018 23:04

PlateofBiscuits sounds kinky Grin

SneakyGremlins · 19/06/2018 23:04

Plate keys in the bowl everyone

SneakyGremlins · 19/06/2018 23:05

X-post! Grin

clairethewitch70 · 19/06/2018 23:05

Is there a skylight?

Gamesmaster · 19/06/2018 23:06

I see the boredom is setting in... I shall run through the last bit and will work on an improved version for another time!

(yellow right again) You light a match in the second room (which was dark) you see there is a lump under the carpet - basically there is a hidden trapdoor to another room below, that room is empty except one solid wooden locked door (locked) and a pile of firewood - you use the last match to light the firewood which you have placed next to the door - then when it has burnt the door enough you douse yourself in the water and run through the burning door and then you have escaped

apologies to those that find this boring/ pointless - just thought it might be fun - will try again at some point but will post ona different topic!

thanks all
