Escape The Case
The Concept
Escape The Case is a reverse escape game. It’s not about escaping a room—it’s about breaking into a series of locked metal cases, opening a volcano of challenges that pulls teams deeper and deeper into the experience.
In Brief
This Venture Up Original challenge blends intrigue and mystery with real professional development, reinforcing a simple truth: no matter your company, department, or location, you’re all one big team, always. The event contains:
- Original clues, codes, puzzles and cyphers
- Alarms and problem-solving twists
- Fractured information and multi-task challenges
- Non-traditional locks, alphabetical locks, and numerical locks
- Layered challenges that build as teams advance
- Collaboration between individuals and teams
How It Works
Teams of 6–10 each receive a large metal case and follow the clues in a race against the clock and other teams. Cracking code after code and opening box after box.
- Group size: 10 to 500 – we recommend a 20+ participants
- Time: 1.5 to 2.5 hours
The Final Twist
The biggest surprise comes at the end, when all teams must work together to open the final Reveal Case. This collaboration underscores that all teams are actually one big team. More effective together, more innovative together, and ultimately better together – because no one of us, knows as much as all of us.
Why Teams Love It
Escape The Case encourages flexible leadership, prioritization, communication, execution, and creative thinking. Ultimately, this team building challenge is fun for everyone, lightly competitive, and built from the ground up with 40+ years of experience to be professional development training in disguise.
