Escape Rooms for 8 People: Pros & Cons

Escape rooms have become a popular form of entertainment for groups of friends, family, or coworkers. These interactive games require participants to solve puzzles, find clues, and work together to escape a themed room within a set time limit. With a group of 8 people, the experience can be even more exciting and challenging. However, there are pros and cons to consider when booking an escape room for a large group. This article will explore both sides to help you make an informed decision.

Pros & Cons of 8 People Escape Rooms

Pros

• Pay Less Per Person As the group size increases, the cost per person decreases. This means that you can save a considerable amount of money when you book an escape room for a larger group, especially in expensive cities like Los Angeles. You can save over $10 per person by booking for eight people compared to a two-player booking. With the money you save, you could even explore the city and enjoy other activities together, creating more memories and experiences that will last a lifetime.

• Play with the Whole Family or Invite All Your Best Friends With a group of 8 people, you can invite all your best friends or the whole family to join in on the fun. This will create a memorable experience that you can all share together. It's also a great way to challenge each other and work together to solve puzzles and clues. When you finally escape the room, you will have a sense of accomplishment that you can all celebrate together.

• Ideal for Events and Parties Questroom is ideal for events and parties. Whether it's a birthday celebration, a bachelor or bachelorette party, or a team-building event for your coworkers, an escape room provides a fun and challenging activity for everyone to enjoy. With a group of 8 people, you can split into teams and compete against each other to see who can escape the fastest.

• Greater Chance to Escape from Even in The Most Difficult Room With a group of 8 people, you have a greater chance of escaping even the most difficult room. This is because you have more people to work together and solve puzzles. Each person can bring their own unique perspective and skills to the table, which can be incredibly helpful in solving complex puzzles.

Cons

• Less Space for Action One potential drawback of booking an escape room for 8 people is that there may be less physical space to move around and work together. With more people in the room, maneuvering can be difficult, and everyone may not have a chance to participate in every activity. But this can be easily solved by distributing the group into smaller teams that can work in different areas of the room. This allows for more space and encourages teamwork and collaboration among the different subgroups.

• Difficulties with Communication One potential challenge with a larger group is that it can be difficult to communicate effectively, especially when it comes to making decisions. With more people involved, there may be more opinions and ideas to consider, which can lead to confusion and indecision. This can be solved by choosing a leader to coordinate decisions and ensure everyone's input is heard. The leader can help facilitate the discussion and keep everyone on track, making reaching a consensus and moving forward with the game easier.

The Best Escape Rooms For Big Teams

Malediction

The story behind this escape room is about a malevolent Witch and a brave Warrior whose battle ended with the Warrior being transformed into stone under the Witch's curse.

Book Malediction for your next group event or party, and enjoy an unforgettable and exciting adventure together!

Warlocked

As the sun set on a typical summer day, you and your friends rode home on your bikes. But as the sun disappeared, a new light caught your attention. It was blinking and beautiful, drawing you deeper into the forest. Eventually, you came across a house you had never seen before. The lights were gone, but you felt compelled to investigate. With a small push on the door, you were ready to embark on an adventure.

Da Vinci's Challenge

The setting is 15th-century Florence, where young minds crave the opportunity to work with the famous academic Leonardo Da Vinci. As a student, you enter his workshop, only to discover that the entire room is a test to determine if you are worthy of his effort. This game can even hold 10 players now to really give you an edge. Will you be able to prove your worth and avoid being forgotten by history?

Project Minotaur

While on vacation, you and your friends participate in a Temple Tour that turns out to be boring. Across from the last site, there is a large military base. When you ask your guide about it, they deny it, which only makes you more curious. You sneak away from the tour and find an opening in the fence. As soon as you realize what's going on, you realize it wasn't the best idea. You and your friends have become the newest test subjects for PROJECT: MINOTAUR. Before encountering the experiment's namesake, can you leave the base?

Spell Breakers

You find yourselves lost in a magical forest and stumble upon a mystical cabin. As you approach, you hear whispers and echoes of a cursed tale about an evil witch and a brave warrior. The Warrior fought hard to defeat the Witch, but ultimately, the Witch was too powerful and turned the Warrior to stone with a curse. To find your way home, you must break into the Witch's cabin and create a magical potion to transform the Warrior back, or you may suffer the same fate as stone statues.
