摘要

When Rock Avenue Escape Room closed in March-in the middle of what is usually its busiest month-owner Rob Faiella laid off three employees and wondered how the business would survive. "What am I supposed to do, strap a GoPro to my head and have people call in?" he asked local business owners. Faiella, a computer programmer who runs an escape room with his wife, Alison, about 20 miles outside of Tampa, ended up doing exactly that. He set out to turn an in-person game into a virtual one. In the new game, which is played with customers by videoconference, Faiella takes the role of small-town mayor working to crack a missing-person case. With a mobile phone strapped to his chest, he's the players' eyes, ears, and hands as they sift through clues and open locks. It's been a big hit. Tickets are sold out until June, and customers are logging in from as far away as Australia and India. For escape rooms, adapting to business during the coronavirus pandemic has meant finding ways to bring games online, such as placing webcams in rooms and creating puzzle graphics to share with players. Instead of the usual instructions, like telling players not to open things by force, hosts give tips on how to share screens and use Google Drive. In one escape room, the session begins with the host asking, "Can I offer you something to drink... from your own refrigerator?"
