Following the creation of 'Mission: Unlock Enoch,' an interactive online game launched by Red Bull last year, groups of sharp-minded Red Bull Mind Gamers recently competed at the first Escape Room World Championship.
At the event, some of the brightest problem-solvers from around the world were challenged to solve seven puzzles rooted in quantum physics in order to make their escape and come out on top. Teams in the finals came from across the globe, but this year's winning team came from Slovenia and was awarded a trophy to take home.
The online game experience, which was used to select participants, and the Escape Room World Championship were developed to promote the sci-fi MindGamers film, which was produced by Terra Mater Factual Studios under the Red Bull Media House.
