For a field trip, I visited Elusion Escape Rooms. I found his to be relevant to my game as they both have puzzles that you need to solve in order to complete the game. My friends and I played the Heist room. The company describe it as:

A mysterious employer has hired your crack team of thieves to break into the home of an antiquities professor and steal a legendary artifact.

Break into the house, locate and navigate the art vault and steal 5 items in the house that you think are worth the most value to sell on the black market before the police arrive.

Puzzles included:

-We started by climbing in through a window.

-Using a poster on a wall, we decoded symbols on flags to get a code for a padlock.

-A wooden maze on the wall gave us a key

-Chess pieces were hidden around the room. A photo of a chess game was also found, meaning that after we found all the pieces when we set them up in accordance to the photo, a new room behind a bookcase open

-Things with hidden in a coat pocket

-A desk had loads of drawers with items in them. One drawer with a lock on

-Lasers protecting the artifacts with an override button at the back

-Map on the wall

-Hieroglyphics on wall

-Codes needed to translate into numbers for a padlock

-Rug with holes in

-Book full of prices of artifacts

-Magnet on the end of a rope needed to be thread through a hole in the cabinet to get a key

From this experience, I learnt what makes a puzzle interesting and it gave me insight on different formats of puzzles that I can incorporate into my game
