Nowadays, there seems to be a game show or a reality TV show about everything you could think of! Well, escape rooms are no exception. In 2015, there was a show that came out called Race to Escape, there were 7 episodes to the season, each one a new themed escape room. A team of complete strangers are put into the escape rooms, there are 2 teams playing the same escape room, and there’s money involved!
But, as one game ends, another begins! I wanted to tell you a little bit about our Date Night game that is happening this weekend. And, if you are one of the lucky 100 people who will get to enjoy this game, we can’t wait to hear what your thoughts were on the game! And, if you missed out this time around, which don’t worry, many people did (this game sold out in less than 48 hours!), we hope to bring many more fun experiences like this to you this year!
Did you know, we’ve had proposals happen inside some of our escape rooms? If you’ve been thinking you might want to pop the question and you’re looking for a unique way to do it, let us help! Maybe your first date took place at an escape room and it’s always held a special place in your heart, or you and your honey love to do puzzles together, or maybe you’ve never done an escape room before! Whatever the case may be, we would love to help out!

Birthday’s are exciting and fun, unless you’re in that age group where it’s not. However, birthday’s are still a really great time to do something fun with your friends and family that you haven’t tried before. Perhaps an escape room? What could be better than getting trapped in a room with your besties for an hour before you go out to dinner or have cake?
Thinking about an event for your office? A way to treat your employees for a job well-done? Or maybe you’re looking for a way to bring your team closer together?
Consider Improbable Escapes for your corporate events and team building needs!
Last weekend some of the Improbable Escapes team traveled down to Schaumburg, Illinois for Chicago’s Room Escape Conference. As you’ll remember a couple of weeks ago, when we posted the blog post about heading there, this is the aftermath.
Our Grand Re-Opening and One Year of business celebration has come and gone! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate us, our business and our new location!
We have finally had a chance to sit down to tell you all about our new space!
You would think as an escape room business we would have a million keys to carry around and combinations to remember … And you would be correct, however we have found ourselves in some interesting situations as well.
Special thanks to Kingston Fire and Rescue for saving us during a ridiculously embarrassing moment. Remember kids, smoke machines can set off fire alarms.
This is just a quick lesson. Don’t run smoke machines indoors without ventilation. It may or may not set off a fire alarm … where an entire historic national site has to evacuate.
I am all too familiar with not wanting to vote and have heard all of these excuses from my friends and family. However it is a destructive failure of imagination to believe that just because you will probably never cast the deciding ballot in an election or single handily shape the course of Canadian politics, that your vote does not matter.
In June, we had the pleasure of meeting Hollie Pratt Campbell, the editor of the Kingston Heritage and Frontenac Gazette newspapers. She wanted to take a picture of us for an article she was writing about us, but at the time we were extremely scared of putting our faces to our business. We have ccontinuously faced a lot discrimination, due to our age (and sometimes our gender). The way we’ve combated this… is by demanding respect.
