Breakout games are amazingly exciting and fun, but you need to be smart. You need winning strategies. You may lose some of the games as beginners but continue practicing, and you will soon be among the best players. These are some of the winning tips for playing breakout games. 

Wear clothes that you will not have a problem to look for clues in a muddy place, climb ladders, squeezing through dark secret passages, running and so on. Wear comfortable sports shoes because this is an exciting game that needs you to move swiftly because the time limit puts pressure on you and your team. Wear loose-fitting clothing but not oversized clothes. There is a difference between the two. Loose-fitting clothes will help you stretch and move easily because tight one can tear if you stretch too much. Oversized clothes will get caught in-between object that may tear them. Your team will be disappointed if your clothes keep getting caught by objects because they cannot leave you behind yet you are dragging them behind. Avoid the stilettos because you cannot run or walk fast in them! Few accessories that do not hand will help you concentrate on the game. Large hanging accessories will create the same problem oversized clothes will create as you play. Wear enough makeup, meaning do not paint your face. A little touch of makeup is complete. You will sweat a lot; hence, you will find it difficult dealing with multicolored sweat that stains your clothes. You will also stain the clothes of your teammates because as you play, you cannot avoid rubbing against each other. Click on Breakout Games

Eat enough and give yourself time to relax so that the food gets digested before you go to play. Drink water and bring some with you because you will be grateful you did. You need all the energy you can muster to play break out games. The games put you in a good mood. You will shout a lot because of the excitement, but you will not realize that you are shouting. You will stretch, jump, toss, and turn. You will brainstorm intensively to solve clues. You need the energy to help those teammates who drag you behind by pulling and pushing them a little bit. You may get emotionally drained when you have to encourage your team not to give up when they face challenges. You will also need someone to encourage you too, at some point. This is breakout games! Think about the themes of breakout games that are drawn from movies. Do you know some of the movies with these themes; the prisoners trying to escape from prison, a princess trying to get away from kidnappers, warriors trying to escape from captive. The characters of the stories must have gone through so much! Breakout games need you to play different roles and solve puzzles to escape. It is messy; some will cry therefore eat and hydrate yourself well before you leave your home for breakout games. Do not play break out games when drunk because you will hurt yourself and at times it may be severe. It is a game of fun hence do not make it sad for you and your team.

Search the room thoroughly for clues. Choose a team leader and pair yourselves before searching the room to save time because you will cover the entire room in a short time. Turn the room into a mess if you have to but do not damage anything. Looks for pattern, objects, symbols, or anything that can give you leads to solving the puzzles. If you have to get close to appliances like ovens, fridge and others turn off electricity because the rush can make you touch parts of these appliances that will shock you. The tall ones should lift the short ones to check the top of the shelves, cabinets, and ceiling. The short teammates should bend beneath furniture to search all the corners of the room and the entire floor because that is easier for them. The puzzles are connected. Solve them systematically because one clue leads to the other, and one puzzle will point to the next one. Organize all your clues at one place and have a sharp memory to remember most of your clues. Waste no time by asking the host where clues cannot be so that you do not search everywhere. View Breakout Games

Somebody should keep track of time to alert you if you are taking too much time to solve a puzzle. Some escape rooms do not allow smartphones because the internet is available for cheating. A watch will save the team. You will be able to do everything on time if you keep yourself in check. Do not be too excited to forget about the time. Minimize discussion time. Brainstorm and use all the ideas at hand. Do not debate much because no one is right or wrong. All ideas can work or fail, so there is no need to pint out fingers of blame if opinions of others do not provide the expected results. Find out more on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tqnw7g5iIFQ
