If you’re looking for ways to boost your brain power, memory, and focus, you may want to consider locking yourself (and a few friends!) in an escape room. Escape room games have become a global phenomenon in just a few short years. The first escape room was created by Japanese game developer Toshimitsu Takagi in 2007. Since then, these immersive, interactive games have captivated millions of players worldwide. But escape room games are more than just a fun and exciting way to spend an hour. They're a test of wits, a challenge for the mind, and a unique way to stimulate the brain. In this blog, we'll share some of the science behind escape rooms. Find out how these challenging games can enhance your cognitive and problem-solving skills, pushing your brain to its limits in a thrilling race against the clock!
Playing mind games
The aim of every escape room is for players to work as a team to find clues, solve puzzles, and decipher brainteasers in an effort to escape a themed room within a 60-minute timeframe.
But these puzzles aren't just about finding a key or cracking a code; they're about pushing your brain to think in new and creative ways.
Our cognitive abilities allow us to process information, make decisions, and learn new things. They include skills like using memory, paying attention, and applying logical reasoning. In escape room games, these skills are put to the test as you're faced with a series of challenges that require you to remember clues, pay attention to details, and use logical reasoning to solve problems.
Unlocking your brain’s potential
When you're involved with an escape room game, your brain is in a state of heightened activity. You're constantly processing new information, making connections between clues, problem-solving, and strategising. This intense mental activity stimulates the brain – strengthening neural connections and improving cognitive function.
Research has shown that engaging in activities that challenge the brain can improve memory and critical thinking skills. In an escape room, you're using your memory in a dynamic and active way. This in turn can help to improve your memory function in the long term.
As a bonus, the critical thinking skills you use to solve the puzzles can translate into improved problem-solving abilities in other areas of your life. By challenging yourself in an escape room, you're training your brain to think critically and solve problems efficiently in your work and personal life too.
But the benefits don't stop there. Escape rooms also promote teamwork and communication. They require players to work together, share ideas, and coordinate their efforts. The experience of overcoming challenges and achieving a common goal together can strengthen bonds between players, making escape rooms a great option for team-building events.
Moreover, escape rooms also tap into our natural drive for exploration and discovery. They engage our curiosity and reward our problem-solving efforts, making them not just fun, but also deeply satisfying on a psychological level.
Escape rooms in Auckland
Pioneers in the industry, Escape Masters opened New Zealand’s very first escape room in Auckland in 2014.
Their escape rooms Auckland location – on Queen Street – is known for a thrilling variety of immersive and creatively themed games. Each game is meticulously designed with a specific theme and storyline, immersing players in a world that's as thrilling as it is challenging.

Assemble your most competitive friends and prepare to break out of Escape Masters' prison bus and prove your innocence before you have to serve a life sentence at Wellingtons Maximum Security Prison. The good news is that we got two of the prison buses waiting for you and your mates! These are identical escape rooms, meaning you can battle it out against another team at the same time in the same setting with the same puzzles. Are you ready to take this challenge on?

Escape Masters has arrived to Wellington, the big capital, not too long ago. We pride ourselves in bringing you uniquely crafted escape rooms with completely different worlds. We have had many successful teams crack the codes and solve our puzzles so far. The question is: which escape room will you escape from?
Will you try to get yourself out of the eerie, bloody hands of the Serial Killer, or keep a close hand to your pockets and run for your dear life, before the ruthless clown of Escape Royale Circus makes a joke out of you, or gather up your leadership skills and save the world from a meteor strike?
And if you have tried them all, the good news is...
a brand new action-packed experience is coming to you soon - the Prison Bus. Prepare yourself, to escape from your wrongfully charged time in jail in time.. Before it is too late.
