Frequently Asked Questions
How does the game work?
While a hilarious simulated virtual work meeting unfolds around your team, they’ll explore a fictional company world, following clues across websites, company files and other digital evidence while working together over chat. Their mission is to piece together the five excuses their boss will accept to let them “escape” the meeting. Every step along the way is immersed in workplace-themed comedy.
The experience takes 60 minutes, and our game master works behind the scenes to track progress, respond to submissions, and keep teams moving if they get stuck.
How many people can play?
Standard online booking supports groups of 4–100 participants, split into smaller teams for the game. If you’re planning for a group of more than 100, contact us at info@escapefromthemeeting.com and we’ll help coordinate your event.
What equipment do we need?
All you need to play is access to a computer, stable internet, and email. The game runs online through your browser, so just click the link and play. No apps or downloads required. Before your event, we’ll also provide a quick 2-minute compatibility check so you can make sure everything is ready to go on your work network.
How easy is it to set up?
Very easy. After you book, we send you a private game link, a ready-to-send calendar invite description, and a team sign-up form.
On the day of the event, participants just click the game link and join their assigned teams. The game will start with a video explaining how to play, then the meeting begins and teams start searching for clues.
Our game master will handle everything else on game day, so you can relax and join in on the fun too.
Is it suitable for introverts?
Yes, interaction in the game is entirely chat based and is collaborative without putting people on the spot. There are no awkward ice breakers or need to perform on camera. Players can contribute by searching, solving, chatting, observing, or just laughing along with their team.
Is it remote friendly?
Absolutely. The game was designed for distributed teams, with everything happening online.
What kind of humor is involved?
It’s clever satire and workplace comedy (imagine The Office meets an online escape room). The humor is designed to be playful and work-appropriate. It’s a great fit for culture-forward organizations and teams who love to laugh.
What happens after I book?
You’ll receive an immediate booking confirmation email. Within 24 hours, we’ll send your private game link, a ready-to-send calendar invitation, and a team sign-up form. Simply invite your team, complete the sign-up form at least 48 hours before your event, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Do you offer packages for larger organizations or for employee onboarding?
Yes, contact us at info@escapefromthemeeting.com for more information on enterprise offerings and integration of the game into the onboarding experience.
