Have you ever wanted to solve real-life puzzles on a quest to save Hyrule? Consider your wishes grantedย because SCRAP, the developers of many award-winning escape room challenges, is partnering with Nintendo to create a Puzzle Tour inspired by The Legend of Zelda. Escape rooms, which force players to solve puzzles within a time limit, typically trap players in a room. But the โDefenders of the Triforceโ U.S. tour will place teams of six in a large, The Legend of Zelda themed game space. This, of course, means the escape gameย will become an adventure that fans can appreciate. Players can expect to use items from The Legend of Zeldaย to complete the challenge. Characters from the series’ย Goron, Zora, and Kokiri tribes will also make an appearance.
After the puzzle experience is over, visitors will have access to a unique promotional area. This lounge will feature exclusive photo opportunities and exclusiveย The Legend of Zelda merchandise. The tour will be heading to eight U.S. cities, beginning with San Francisco on January 31st. The tour will continue in Los Angeles, Phoenix, and San Diego. SCRAP has not listed dates for the Seattle, Houston, Chicago, and New York events.
Nintendo of Americaโs Senior Vice President of Sales, Doug Bowser, was optimistic about the collaboration, saying, โAt Nintendo, weโre always looking for ways to offer new experiences for all of our fans, and expose our characters and franchises to new audiencesโ.
Unsurprisingly, this is not the first time Nintendo brings The Legend of Zeldaย into the real world. Nintendoโs celebration of theย seriesโ 30th anniversary included a concert and a new line of holiday apparel. The upcoming release ofย The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild alsoย marks a milestone for the franchise. Nintendoโs decision to launch this title on the Nintendo Switchย further proves its devotion to keepingย The Legend of Zelda alive.
