Tips For Putting Together Your Escape Room Team

Let’s talk teams, Escape Game teams. If you want to put together the best team, then you need to have some sort of strategy in place. You need to at least consider the kind of people you want to invite to be in with a chance of winning. You’ll need to bring along people who are good at communicating, working things out and getting along with other people. You’ll be locked in a room with a group of up to 6 people, so you want to make sure you all get on. So, let’s get started. 

Team players

Firstly, make sure you choose people who are happy to be part of a team. Ones who are team players and don’t enjoy being dominant. There’s no point having someone there who’s dominating the game, not letting anyone else use their initiative and bellowing orders out left, right and centre. You want people who enjoy working with others, and there’s no ‘i’ in team. 


A good delegator

Find someone who can delegate, this is someone who will stand on the sidelines and not necessarily take part, but guide people as to where they should be heading next to find a clue. Managing the team really is what’s required here and steering everyone in the right direction, keeping an eye on the clock and cheering people on.

You want people who get on well

Find a group of people who all get on and are at least familiar with each other. A bunch of strangers in a room for the first time may not get on with each other, so find like-minded people, possibly from work or family friends. It’ll make for a better game, and there’ll be a better chance of you getting on and spending an hour together, without getting psychologically damaged from the experience. 

Good communicators

People who are good at communicating is essential, you don’t want people who don’t talk or don’t tell anybody else anything. People who keep things to themselves. There’s only one way you’re going to win this game and that’s by talking to each other, it’s an interactive game, get it? No silent types or go-it-alone people. 

Good at the detailed stuff

Finally, you want people who are good at puzzles and figuring things out - quickly. There’s bound to be someone in your group of friends at work or at home who are good at the geeky stuff, and know how to work out clues really, really well. You definitely want to bring them along for sure!
