Check out this article if you’d like a little more information on the mechanics of the game–how many rooms, etc. (There’s nothing I’d consider a big plot giveaway there, but read at your own risk if you’re playing the game and don’t want to know anything ahead of time.)
“It’s the most anticipated game in the history of escape rooms,” says Ferguson. “The company behind it has always pushed boundaries, with amazing sets and actors – and it’s the first time intellectual property has been taken and made into a game. It will appeal to escape room fans as well as dedicated Sherlock fans. London needed a flagship game and this is going to be huge.”
Got this article in my inbox today, which features a set picture from the Sherlock escape room opening in a few days in London.
First: tell me I’m not the only one who read that as “The Gay Is Now” because of the E hiding in shadows? Also that left leg of the M is so thin It gets lost in the wallpaper.
Second: normal skull painting. IMO, if they could license it for multiple replica sets in the flat in this escape room, they could have for the show, which just further proves to me they’re lying about the glowing skull in the show (which I already believed anyway, but.)
Tagging a few of you who might be interested in the skull painting (and it’s early and I’m exhausted so I know I’m forgetting like 95% of the people I should tag)
The painting’s covered in glass now? And the yellow paint’s just badly photoshopped 😂😂
wasn’t it always covered by glass? IIRC the original is multiple layers or something, not just a single print on paper. I’m not sure where i read that , it was so long ago. But yeah, definitely confirms the nonsense about the glowing skull.
Sorry to disappoint you but this is not a new picture of ‘The Game is whatever it is’ set – but an old picture from S2 (there are props to indicate Dartmoor/cross keys pub, a post card of the Tower of London, a hound statuette, the poisoned sweeties & the IOU apple etc) that’s been (badly) photo-shopped!
It’s from the same photoshoot as the below pic: (and yes, that painting was always covered in either glass or perspex)
