Team Building in Lawrence, KS
Why an escape room works for a team day, and how to run one for a group of any size.
An escape room is a good team activity for an unglamorous reason: it's a task nobody can finish alone, with a clock, in a room where job titles don't help.
What actually happens
Sixty minutes in, you find out who on your team communicates when they're under pressure, who quietly solves things without telling anyone, and who is very good at noticing details everyone else walked past. That's more useful than most trust exercises, and considerably less awkward.
Running it for a bigger team
We split larger teams across rooms and let them go head to head — same clock, different rooms, one obvious bragging-rights winner at the end. Our facility runs up to 26 players at a time, and for groups larger than that we schedule back-to-back rounds.
Rates and scheduling
We offer special pricing for groups of 15 or more, Sunday through Thursday, and custom back-to-back scheduling for 24 or more. We also have private meeting space and catering partners downtown, so the escape room can be the middle of the day rather than the whole of it. Tell our event coordinator what you need.
Picking rooms for a mixed group
If your team has a wide range of experience, put the veterans in Room 13 (9/10) and everyone else in NORAD: 1963 or Alice in Wonderland (both 7/10). Civil War Escape at 8/10 needs at least three players, which makes it a good middle option.
