If you're looking something fun to do with friends or loved ones this Halloween, why not face your fears and test your wits through these virtual escape rooms?

Mystery Manila

Mystery Manila's escape rooms have gone digital!

They now have an online escape room experience called Escape Zoom.

Some of the online mysteries you can solve are the Revenge at the Reunion, Enigma's Enmity, and The Murderous Meeting.

They also have a new mystery game called Hong Kong Heist, which the new Kapuso artist Khalil Ramos and other digital influencers were able to try.

Breakout Philippines

To adapt to the new normal, Breakout Philippines is rolling out a virtual version of their crowd favorite Clownhouse room.

You can now safely breakout of their escape rooms online through the Virtual Escape Room Avatar (VERA), which will serve as your eyes, ears, hands and feet that will be navigating through their escape room as you give your commands online. For bookings, go to their official website.

Staying at home to stay safe against COVID-19 may sometimes give you that “stuck” or “trapped” feeling.

So, give yourself a much-needed break. Treat yourself to a thrilling escape this Halloween with these virtual escape rooms. Enjoy!
