Mobile Escape Room Teaches Real-Life Emergency Skills during National Preparedness Month

 
PORTLAND, Ore. - Aug. 31, 2023 - PRLog -- Side Quest Escape Games, an innovator in the escape room industry, announces pop-up locations for the world's first mobile escape room that teaches players about emergency preparedness. Throughout September, which is National Preparedness Month, the Shaky Grounds Cafe escape room will be available for booking at pop-up events throughout the Portland area. During this exciting one-hour escape game, players will solve puzzles that teach them lifesaving emergency preparedness skills.

The Shaky Grounds Cafe is an entirely new category of escape room that teaches players real-world skills. This groundbreaking escape game presents simulated hazards as hands-on puzzles that require practical emergency response techniques to solve. Throughout this one-hour experience, participants will learn how to assess risks, exercise critical thinking, and properly use emergency preparedness items to solve over 20 puzzles that teach real-world skills.

Set within a coffee shop one week after a major earthquake has upended the Pacific Northwest, the escape game begins with a briefing from the creator and gamemaster, Tyler Robinson:

"You have all survived the earthquake but without utilities and running critically low on supplies, household tensions have reached a new level as you have run out of coffee…" explains the gamemaster, "And I don't know about you, but I don't want to face the apocalypse without a morning cup of coffee."

With help still a week away, players must scavenge the remains of the Shaky Grounds Cafe in search of the most coveted emergency preparedness supply of all - coffee beans!

September is National Preparedness Month and late summer is a great time to consider taking proactive steps toward personal preparedness. As the heatwaves and wildfires begin to give way to the winter storm season, the Shaky Grounds Cafe serves as a vivid reminder of the importance of preparing for natural disasters. Geologists at Oregon State University have projected a 37% probability of an 8.0+ Cascadia Subduction Zone megaquake occurring in the next 50 years and FEMA estimates that such an event may displace as many as one million people with another 2.5 million requiring food and water assistance. Side Quest Escape Games aims to lower these numbers by encouraging people to prepare their homes with 2 weeks of food, water, and critical supplies.

In alignment with National Preparedness Month, Side Quest Escape Games is partnering with local businesses to establish pop-up events in the Portland area where the public can experience this fun and exciting way to learn about preparedness. The Shaky Grounds Cafe escape room is family-friendly and can accommodate up to 8 players per game. Tickets for the one-hour game are $40 per player and can be purchased online at https://www.sidequestescapegames.com/
