If it is your first time playing an escape room, you might worry that you did not prepare for it. You have no clue how the game works, and you fear that you will not contribute to the team. Before you get too worried, you need to understand that even if you know how the game works, it will not do anything to improve your chances of winning.
The rule of the game is quite simple. You need to solve challenges and puzzles so you will receive the clue to the next station until you make it out of the room on time. Even with the Virtual Reality version of the game, the rules are pretty much the same. Therefore, it is okay even if you did not do anything to prepare yourself. You will figure things out once you are already there.
It is exciting
You will be even more excited when everything looks novel to you. From the puzzles to the room decoration, you will feel stunned. With VR, it also feels the same. You will be stunned with the graphics and how close they look to reality. Since you have no prior experience, you will be like a child brought to a theme park for the first time.
You will feel the adrenaline rush
Once you are in the situation, you will not allow yourself to be a useless member of the team. You will do your best to ensure that you contribute to the group. You will feel the adrenaline rush and will do everything possible to be of help. You might even feel surprised by what you can do once you are there. As your back gets pushed towards the wall, you will try hard to keep fighting.
Some tasks require general skills you learn in a lifetime
There is nothing you can do within a day or two that will prepare you for an escape room challenge. The skills required are most likely life skills you have learned over the years. A quick practice on how to play puzzles might help, but as an actual test, cramming does not help.
Enjoy the process
Another benefit of not preparing is that you do not become too competitive. You do not mind if you win or not. You can enjoy the game and try your best without necessarily looking at the goal. It takes the pressure away from the game and allows you to become more focused. Some experienced players end up still unable to do well because they get distracted while playing since their minds are only on finishing the challenge. They forget to have fun and enjoy every aspect of the game.
