This is creative. Logistically how does this work if you have 10 people on Zoom shouting commands, @crina_oana_bordas?

@crina_oana_bordas @rrhoover haha my first thought exactly 🥴

@rrhoover Hi Ryan! Based on our experience from building our previous remote escape game Lola in Spaceº, we find that teams of 5-8 works best. After that it can get messy. For Moonshot, we divide large teams into smaller units of 5-8 players to compete in a real-life space race. 🏆It also has many touch points for each team to interact with, without bottle-necking the game master: such as the virtual assistant, real-world puzzle content and props on the Lunar station that the players can control. Most of our customers have teams larger than 10 players so it was important for us to find a way to have larger teams play together in a meaningful way. 😊

@rrhoover @nicbyron yep you are sopt on! How to scale virtual meeting size while maximizing immersion was our design challenge for Moonshotº 🔥

I have been to Reason before the pandemic for their physical games. This looks like a nice pivot for Covid.

Super interesting, can’t quite tell from the video but is there a live “host” like in an meatspace escape room, or is that automated. Structured social activities for groups feels key especially now.
Crina Oana Bordas
@nabeel Hi Nabeel, we do have a live host to progress the narrative, guide players and help with hints :) Agree that structured social activities are key!
Jonathan Bernal
Never seen something like this in an escape room.

@jonathanbernal we're doing our best to bring something new to the industry!
