ESCAPE ROOM
The LAN is broken and doors open in one hour! Our network team is nowhere to be found, so it’s up to you to fix the internet before the event ends up a disaster. Work together as a crew of two to four friends to search the room for clues and solve puzzles. Break into the calamitously messy server room, unpick its mysteries, and save the day!
