Puzzled on what to do in September?
Entertainment Enigma Of The Month: Jungle Run
As a kid I was completely captivated by the challenges faced, within this mythical jungle packed with puzzles. Taking inspiration from both Fort Boyard, and The Crystal Maze, Jungle Run was a game show created for kids in September of 1999. The aim was to collect bananas and statues, as you completed tasks along a perilous journey in an Indiana-Jones-esque set. If you escaped the traps and avoided the monkeys, you could ultimately claim the treasure.
Perplexing Puzzler Of The Month: The Room
The Room was first released in September of 2012, and enthralled audiences with its incredible graphics and themeatic atmosphere. If you’re ever played this puzzle game, you’ll be familiar with the fantastic interaction and intrigue that will unfold, as you explore your way through the dark and moody scenes…even if the story itself is a little underwhelming. We wrote about this video game in a previous article, if you’re itching to know more!Â
Gaming Get-Together Of The Month: DASH Puzzle Hunt
DASH stands for Different Area, Same Hunt, and is a friendly fun-filled interactive event, that takes place on the same day in numerous cities worldwide. Players, in teams of 3 to 5, race to find clue after clue, in a bid to uncover directions to the location of the next puzzle, in this story-driven hunt. If you can’t make the next event nearest to you, you can download summaries and puzzles from previous years, to enjoy at your leisure!
Orlando Offering Of The Month: Stardew Valley: Symphony of Seasons
Orchestral enchantment awaits you at the Dr. Phillips Center this September. Fans of Stardew Valley are sure to be delighted, by this magical musical adventure through the valley, with Symphony of Seasons. This captivating concert will leave you charmed, as you enjoy familiar cherished songs from the game. So sit back, relax, and be taken back to simpler times watching your farm grow, and journeying through those memorable locations you’ve explored before.
