A new take on escape rooms has opened in Rancho Cucamonga, blending team strategy and digital technology inside innovative “game boxes.”
The immersive gaming franchise Electric Gamebox opened April 7 at Victoria Gardens.
Players in groups of two to six people go inside interactive “digital smart rooms,” or “Gamebox” pods. Inside the box, players use touch screens, Lidar and 3D-motion tracking to play a game.
Teams play a series of games and challenges that can only be completed through collaboration. The gaming experience, the company says, lasts between 15 and 60 minutes.
