What are escape rooms and why are they safe?
Escape rooms (escape room) are gaining more and more popularity. This is actually a game that usually involves no more than six people.

The themes of the different rooms are varied, for example, the ability to search for hidden treasure in an unfamiliar place or guess spy codes to open locks and locked boxes. Some of the plots are inspired by movies and computer games.
