Wild West Escape Rooms Melbourne

Yeehaw! It’s the wild west escape room, and us cowboys and cowgirls are raring to get in there, cause a bit of a ruckus by solving the clues and challenges in record time, and then escape before the sheriff guns us down.

A wild west escape room game can be huge amounts of fun for the participants. It can be aimed at a younger age group if it has a light-hearted storyline, setting, and sound effects. On the other hand, it can be a dark interpretation with implied violence and unpleasant consequences threatened if the players fail to escape.

FOR YOUNG PLAYERS

Based on the excitement of wild west adventures by likeable characters and heroes, a wild west escape room for kids must be fun first and foremost. You can offer optional dressing-up for players so they can really get into the mood of being a gunslinger, the sheriff, or one of the notorious characters of the wild west, such as Jesse James or Annie Oakley, that ride into town. The setting must reflect the genre of the wild west with furniture befitting the timeline and storyline. Some create an ‘outside’ setting such as a barn or a corral complete with model horses or livestock to give that real cowboy authenticity. Cleverly placed air-con and wild west sound-effects, such as horses and cattle noises, complete the ‘outside’ feel and impress younger players. This way, you can build total immersion into the wild west setting.

WILD WEST FOR ADULTS

Base your theme on one of the most dangerous of all wild west towns, Tombstone, and you instantly have a story, and the fear factor is introduced. Some say Tombstone was the most dangerous because of its lawlessness and frequent gunfights. Add to that the Boot Hill graveyard just outside of Tombstone, reserved for outlaws and other less desirables, and you have the menace factor. So, your theme could be based around the Boot Hill graveyard or Tombstone’s sheriff’s office and jail, where many a crazy cowboy and cowgirl were locked up for the town’s protection or to await the marshal, who would arrive to take them to court and possibly to be hung. Now you have the unpleasant setting, then you need to add special effects and sounds befitting to the theme. You now have implied violence and tension. Add to that a few jumpy moments with compelling gunslinging fights and screams from innocent citizens of Tombstone together with the sound of people dropping dead with a few arghs and ‘ah, ya got me,’ and the tension is ramped up.
