What are quests and why are they chosen

A quest is a game that has a plot and a specific goal. It takes place in one or several rooms with appropriate decorations. Players find themselves on a pirate ship, Holmes's office, or a Soviet apartment (depending on the topic). An adventure awaits them, seasoned with scary events or challenging puzzles. At the end of the game, the team leaves the room or reaches another goal.

This type of leisure is common in the fields of entertainment and sports. Sometimes people unite in professional teams, set records for passing various rooms, storm the ratings of questers. Many people choose quests to celebrate a birthday, graduation or some other event. A simple dinner in a cafe will be erased from memory as another monotonous holiday, of which there were many.

With their help, you can relieve emotional stress at the end of the work week or quench your craving for the new and the unusual.

Types of quests

Escape rooms were the first to enter the entertainment market. The players were locked in an entourage room and they had to look for clues and solve riddles. The main task of the team is to get out of the room. Interactive capabilities brought the game to life, but the monotony of the process pushed manufacturers to create new directions, such as:

• Quests in reality. The main goal of the game can be anything: to save Narnia, to prevent an alien invasion, to find the ingredients for a potion, etc. The plot often echoes well-known books, computer games or films.
• Performance. Characters appear in the script and interact with the players. Often these are negative heroes that increase the level of fear at times. Especially scary scenarios are called horror performance. Playing with actors turns out to be more realistic than other types of quests.
• Action. You won't be able to relax.Here you will have to work physically: overcome obstacles, run, climb, jump, etc.
• Morpheus... The participants spend the whole game blindfolded, in complete darkness.
