In which ways can actors be included in Escape Rooms?

The way in which actors are included into Escape Games most often surely is by them being a crucial part of the introduction into the game. Maybe the whole introduction, beginning from the very moment the group steps into the location, is given by an actor. Here, the clothing will already be fitting to the theme of the game and some acting is included in welcoming the players. Appropriate language and behavior is an essential part of the whole show. A different option would be a casual introduction, but some acting just as the game begins and the players are brought into the room. This has the lovely effect that it really makes sure that the team is completely immersed into the game from one moment to the next as soon as it is appropriate – while explanations of general behavioral rules and questions have their place beforehand, done by the providers in casual attire. When actors appear later in the game, it has mainly one effect: it is scary! Nearly all the teams are very focused and concentrated while they are trying to solve all the riddles in time. This makes them extremely vulnerable to the sudden appearance of an actor, especially if it is included fittingly in the flow of the game. Screams and Shouting nearly guaranteed!

Why are Escape Rooms with actors more fun?

The whole point why Escape Rooms have found their way to be one of the prefered ways to spend free time with family and friends within the last years is their seemingly magic ability to make the players dive into a completely new world! All of us are stressed out by and caught up in everyday life, movies or books being just superficial escapes to it. Escape Games on the other hand are definitely not superficial: instead, most teams even need some minutes after the game to realise that they are not in this strange, wonderful and adventurous world anymore in which they spent the last 60 minutes. As one might imagine, this effect is even stronger when actors are involved. This not only makes the (more real than) fictional world more credible, but it certainly can also add an unmatched factor for some horror, shocking and being afraid- and who is not in for a good kick of adrenalin and strong heartbeats?
