Let’s be real, with all the rain and miserable weather that afflicts Toronto sometimes, you might have started asking yourself, “If we don’t want to get drenched outside, what’s something inside that we can do?” There’s an easy answer to that question: escape rooms! There’s a number of fantastic reasons to play an escape room on a rainy day–here are some that we thought of!
Escapism
- You’re already escaping the rain so why not escape a room? You’ve been to the movies a million times, and spending time at a mall just wandering around can be so tedious–and those are places everyone else goes on rainy days. So, Why not experience a unique adventure? And if you still wanted the rainy experience while staying warm and dry, Pathogen takes place in a rainy futuristic city.
Indoor fun for all your friends
- Bringing your friends together is the perfect remedy for cabin fever. Staying home because of the rain or constantly working from home can make anyone restless, which makes a change of scenery so important. Why not use that energy to work on puzzles! Working together with some of your closest friends is an incredibly rewarding feeling. Plus, your friends will thank you for organizing a super fun activity that doesn’t involve being in the rain and humidity (everyone wants to be the cool friend, right?)
Boost brain activity on a rainy day
- Brain fog on a rainy day can be oppressive, so shake off the cobwebs, get up off the couch, and challenge yourself by solving puzzles. Your logic and problem-solving skills are getting the perfect workout when you might’ve otherwise just stayed home scrolling through social media. We don’t doubt that a day out playing escape rooms will work your brain, keep you sharp, and hype you up!
