Our score on internet
In the previous news we were pleased to hear about Questum on fici.sme.sk and this comparison has inspired us to write a small excerpt about what our visitors think about us. We are very happy that the players leave satisfied and are charged with good energy. We are the first to have a traditional and worldwide website with reviews for tourists - TripAdvisor. At the time of this writing, there are 84 reviews and five beautiful stars out of five (we just add that we have no control over what visitors write about us, the only way to truly amuse people is to animalize. ) Blogger Katka…

If you look at Portal for the Young, you may have seen an article that calls (and compares a bit) the Slovak Escape Rooms. Well and Questum, how different, can not miss. We consider our entertainment center to be the largest of its kind in Slovakia. And among us - even the most entertaining, even if this train every visitor only has to judge for themselves. The passionate player of Escape Rooms should not be without us - he will know first-hand how well our four rooms are equipped for the players. From the article a very pleasant fact emerges - the phenomenon of refugee dreams is…

WHAT SHOULD YOU AVOID IF YOU ORGANIZE A TEAMBUILDING EVENT
Sometimes going out with the team and devoting oneself to the other as work - great. But attention, that welding together of collective on a lopsided course has not come. Here are some helpful tips: 1. If the subordinates do not agree, do not organize an event. Sure, as a boss you can order it. But if you feel that the employees are not happy about that, ask yourself why. 2. The activity at which the injury threatens, do not choose. Remember when playing games - not everyone in the team has the same skills. Each team member is different and has different options. 3. Do not show the…

Fort Boyard: 20 Years later again on Slovak screens
At the time when Markíza TV was fresh news in Slovakia, its directors bought the right to entertain – Fort Boyard. Would you believe that it has been nearly 20 years? And this month, the session returns again. Once again, it will be full of action and adrenaline.   Actually, it is the largest escape room in the world - the fortress is 60 meters long and it had to serve 250 men. However, the old Napoleonic fortress was a military mistake. By the time they had finished it in extremely harsh conditions (on the seabed), the works had improved so much in the meantime that…

Why did Mayan civilization disappear?
National Geographic published an article titled: "Maya - a civilization that was Aten". The reason why this civilization collapsed is still unknown. The Mayans in Central America ruled 1200 years.   During their greatest glory, the territory had a population density of about the size of today's Los Angeles and a population much higher than any other European country at that time. And then the puff - they slowly disappeared from history. White explorers and conquerors have found only wreckage of the ancient civilization. Here are the reasons for its…

How to get to the board of the fastest teams? Listen and shout
Do you want to subscribe to the history of our escape room? Here are some ideas of how to do it:   Set up a real team. This means - this time no festive players or those of lesser interest, those who panic, or who do not think logically. In short - the native racers. You should all know each other, have experience with escape rooms, but also experience with puzzles and similar games. Democracy or autocracy? It does not matter in the game. Both systems can be effective, that is, one where everyone is equal and contributing to the work. Or there is one player leader -…

Seven reasons why Tesla was a genius scientist
Have you ever wondered why were old TVs called Tesla, or why so many people put their hopes on Tesla electric cars? 1. Nikola Tesla started the century of electricity. The nineteenth century belonged to steam, but for the most of the world, the horse carriage was still a luxury technology. At the beginning of the 20th century, only a few weirdos in laboratories were interested in electricity...and at its end, people couldn't survive without it. And at the beginning stood who else, than Nikola Tesla. 2. As a humanist, he refused war. Tesla saw the science as something nobler,…

We love a live game, not really because of the environment, but because of our own interaction with
What to players love the most in escape rooms? Surprisingly, it's not the puzzles or tasks, even though the game is all about them. Most of the players in the polls say they like a "balanced" puzzle and only a small percentage of them are looking for a challenge (high difficulty). Things that people love are often psychological in nature: 1."Eureka" moment. When you ask the players, what was the best part of the adventure, lots of them immediately say, that it was the moment, in which they managed to get through a tricky problem. The moment, in which the team got…

10 types of escape room players
Well, what type are you?   The Analyst. Lover of puzzles and riddles, mathematician, analytical type. Exactly the type of player, that fits in every escape room game... well, if time wouldn’t be counted and their Sherlock deduction skills weren’t slowed down by the team.   Strongman.
