In place of visiting escape rooms in person during the pandemic, people have been participating in virtual escape rooms from the comfort of their own homes. Inspired by its supernatural comedy series, Truth Seekers, Amazon Prime created a 45-minute escape room challenge of its own called The Truth Seekers Remote Adventure.
The Truth Seekers Remote Adventure runs for a limited time this fall and it challenges players to restore a 6G signal at a museum in Weymouth and recover an artefact. For the live experience, players will give commands to a "game guide," who will actually be completing the experience within an escape room and livestreaming their movements. On the call, there will also be another person who will help to offer an introduction, guide the flow of the game and provide clues if needed.
