  It was a really good experience, we take a lot of pleasure create our escape game. Like you can read before we make a lot of mistake at the beginning, but it's normal.

  During this project we learned a lot of things like working in group on a project it's very important because in our job of engineer we work all the time in group.
  

• Recording the sounds

  Killian • 06/09/2018 at 14:26 • 0 comments

  Usually in an escape game, you have sound environment to create an ambience. So we decided to create our own sounds and recordings to make sure that people who are playing the escape game are really immerged in the game.

  In first, we searched all the samples we needed, like the plane crash or ocean sound. When we had all the samples, we imagined then how we could create the sounds.

  For example, when the plane crash, we thought about people screaming for their life. So we screamed like those people. Then we put together the recordings and the samples, we mix it up in order to have a clean rendering.

  During the recordings, we thought that the sounds shoulb be funny because the escape game is for kids, so instead of doing something very realistic, we exaggerate the sounds effects to make them more hilarious.

• Our mistakes

  We firstly tried to make some games that wasn't really dealing with the water pollution problem. So we had to make some others to stay in the good SDG. We also realized we were going to need more components for our escape game that we didn't order, so we took some others from our home.

  Game 1 :

  The first game is a basketball where you must throw some trash in the WC or in a bin.
  When people throw the garbage in the good place, a game master give them a part of a code to open a lock.
  Like this people know what they can throw in the toilet or in the bin.

  Game 2 :

  The second game is composed of a big box with water and some waste like plastic bottles.
  You try to find a key in these waste to open a second lock.
  This game show to people how is a polluted water.

  Game 3 :

  It's a card game where you put some cards with waste picture in the right order. The good order is the time of decomposition of the garbage.
  Behind the cards when they are in the good order you can find a code to open the last lock.
  With this game people learn how long the waste stay in the water.

• Why an escape game ?

  1 - It is a very cerebral game, that requires logical, reasoning skills, but at the same time physically puts you in a real scenario and that influences you throughout the game. 

  2 - It is a game that accepts people of all ages: for example our escape game is for people which have about 6 years 

  3 - It is a dynamic game with pre-established duration. Except some rooms that have different conditions...  So get ready with your team and plan the strategies because that will be important to win.

  4 - It is a game that can have several utilities. On the one hand, it may just be a game to amuse a group of friends on any lovely day. On the other hand, it can be a game that you learn something at the end, that's what we want to do with our escape room.

• Beginning of the journey

  We started in first to search on what we wanted to work on. 

  So we took a look at the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals, on the United Nations website). We decided to work on the "Quality Education" and "Clean water and sanitation" SDG because we learnt about the "8th continent", which is à continent composed by plastic trash. 

  This way, we wanted that people should be more aware of the consequences when they throw something in the ocean. But as we know, it is hard to change the habits of adult, so we decided to create something for kids, to make sure they don't do the same mistakes as us.
