Woohoo! It’s spring break and you’re feeling free! At long last, you can do whatever you want with your time. But before long, boredom sets in and you need some ideas of how to fill your time that’s not just heading to the theme parks. Worry not, we’ve compiled a few suggestions below, and none of them involve standing in crowds or the baking hot Florida sun.
Spring into one of our adventures
Plan An Escape Room Adventure
Playing an escape room with friends is sure to be the highlight of your spring break. If you’re tired of the theme parks and want to do something truly unique for a couple of hours, try this awesome activity instead! You’ll be immersed into the world of your choosing, whether that be a mythological mystery, gripping ghost hunt, castle quest, or a curious crime…it’s your call! If you’re looking for the best value escape room, The Escape Effect has off-peak pricing and everyday discounts, so you can save big on your game!
Reasons why you should do this:
- It’s an active experience that will get your heart racing, and adrenaline pumping.
- Solving puzzles is an excellent way to build your skills, but it won’t feel like school!
- Collaborating with friends and sharing big wins will make your friendship even stronger.
- This action-packed activity is enjoyable for everyone, and completely ADA accessible.
Plan A Board Game Night
If you are looking for a low-key and budget-friendly alternative to heading out to an escape room, host your own board game night at home! It’s an excellent way to gather your closest friends and enjoy an evening of fun and laughter, without breaking the bank! If you’re looking for something new to try, visit us in our physical store or check out our wares online, to find an array of unique and exclusive at-home game options. Oh, and we think the adorable Paddy Padlock, wants to join you around the table too!
Reasons why you should do this:
- If you are introverts, board games are an excellent way to avoid small talk.
- Great social benefits, you’ll build those bonds with your friends as you have fun.
- An opportunity to put your phones and screens down and enjoy real-life interaction.
- If you get everyone to bring a game, you’ll have a wider selection to choose from, and the opportunity to learn something new.
Plan A TTRPG Campaign
We know students tend to be on a budget, so the great thing about starting a Riddles & Relics campaign is you only need one copy of the Game Master’s Guide. Your self-appointed dungeon master will run the game for the whole group, and you can even get creative by making your own character sheets! If you are anything like me, you’ll love the opportunity for a bonus craft project! Open Camelot and unleash adventure! You’ll embark on an epic quest through a vibrant village full of curious characters, with puzzles at every turn.
Reasons why you should do this:
- If you’re already familiar with TTRPGs, Camelot is compatible with 5th edition.
- Provides escapism from your daily life, allowing you to play as any character you want.
- Creatively problem-solving with your peers is incredibly fun and rewarding.
- Enhance your experience with our matching blue and black sharp-edge resin dice set.
- The book is inspired by our two-hour epic escape game A Knight To Escape. So if you’ve played the room, you can continue your adventure through Camelot with this book!
