Permanently Closed - A woman named Josie has recently passed away, leaving behind a storage room filled with decades of collected memories and cryptic secrets. Remnants of her entire life are all here in one place - left for you to discover. As a young girl growing up in the 1960s, Josie was gifted a tape recorder and began documenting every part of her life. But in her old age, she has become almost unrecognizable, warped by the tragic events of her past. The Nest is an intimate, live experience for two audience members at a time, combining elements of immersive theater, narrative video games, serialized podcasts, and escape rooms into a new way to experience a story. Equipped with a flashlight, search through personal effects, explore your surroundings, and listen to audio cassettes to piece together the dramatic narrative of Josie's life.

3 escape rooms

I was not expecting this level of storytelling and I was blown away. The Nest has escape room elements, but it is much more of an intimate story experience. My wife and I were talking about it for days exploring the emotions it drew out.

Gameplay

The gameplay was simple allowing you to focus on the story and take in the environment

Atmosphere

The production level was amazing. You are enveloped by the environment with each set piece leading you deeper into the story.

Customer service

The staff was friendly. The GM involvement in the game never draws you out of the experience.
