I was in a escape room once, there was one door that said failure door. Before we entered the room they told us this door is ALWAYS open and not locked, entering that door stops the game, this door is made in case of panic attacks or emergency. I think that was absolutely great. We did not touch the door but joked about it a lot. It is a nice way to feel save anyway and there was a emergency exit sign above it and also with blacklight paint written keep out or fail the game. something like this should always be done, no key needed to escape from the room, and no person at the other side needed to be there to assist on opening the door.

We did get a walkie talkie to be able to ask for clues if stuck or if something's wrong (which we had to use because I got sick but that was totally unrelated to the room), but that's all so if the operator hadn't been able to access the room in case of emergency I would've been screwed.

These comments are teaching me that a lot of people believe that the purpose of an escape room is to genuinely need to escape a locked room. Guys it's a game. A puzzle game. Not a kidnapping simulation. There is no reason for a door to actually be locked, not just for safety reasons but also because they don't want you taking a piss all over their meticulously themed game room. You can leave whenever you want but you're paying money to play a game. I think many take the name "escape room" far too literally. "What's the point?" It's a game, for fun. If it's not your idea of fun then don't go to one. It's like asking what the point is of laser tag if you can go into the next room and not get shot at.

I’ve worked as an escape room hostess and/or actress, and I’ve had to anonymously report a few of them for failing to adhere to proper safety standards regarding escape rooms.

As someone who used to work at an escape room in Australia, our rooms were always required to not have locking doors that you couldn't exit through. If you went through a locked door you would be able to open it from the other side to get back out. Any of our electronic locks required power to stay locked, so if there was an incident, everyone would be able to leave without requiring power.

Yeah, I saw a comment where someone mentioned there was a button to open the door and my worry was if the door could be opened without power. Also saw some say there were keys next to the door, but leaving a key hanging or in a box makes it easy for it to be dropped or knocked over in an emergency. When I once had to make an emergency 911 call, my hands shook so much, I blanked on my very easy code to unlock my phone, the code I've used for ages. I blanked that I don't even need to unlock the phone to call 911. I was just so damn scared (it was my sibling who needed assistance) that things that should've been easy just weren't. Honestly, I'm all for just having one door that isn't locked. Tell the people it's the exit and if opened, they forfeit, but it's there if they need it. No buttons, no keys, and no need to rely on someone not in the room (or the puzzle maker themselves being in the room) to get the guests out.

As I understand it the employee couldn't get to the door due to the fire, meaning the door was blocked by the fire. So the main problem here is not that the door was locked (which was bad enough) but the lack of a separate emergency exit.

also a very interesting fact is, how unprofessional the police turned out to be. they informed the media before the parents that the girls were dead. what is more the tragedy was streamed live by a local media portal (I mean the fireman + police at work and so on). the camera caught a police's spokeperson making a statement to the media that the girls were dead, and then one of the apparently clueless fathers approached asking: where are our kids because nobody's talking to us. it was horrible. and this recording was taken down only after a few hours

The camera (((caught))), so they weren't giving an interview or statement to be aired immediately before the family was notified. I've seen some reporters go door to door until someone tells them names after being told no by both fire and police. There is zero incentive for either PD or FD to release that if anything it makes their job harder. To be dealing with a tragedy then on top of it distraught family members and friends. Asking things that are both difficult and not yet investigated so cant be fully answered. There is an incentive for some reporters to get the scoop first.

We live by a seaside pier and my friends were allowed to go in the haunted house but I wasn't... because the copy of that haunted house went up in flames and killed six people while he was on call. No fire extinguishers. No marked exits. Bad wiring. Classmates just thought I was "weird" and "sheltered". But I ask the same questions in any activity or even a store. I better see some marked exits and I better see some fire extinguishers. Still do. Extra important now with my wheelchair. I'm the first person they leave to die, after all!

I work as an escape room GameMaster. One of the rooms has no locks and is always open, and the other one is a door that is sealed magnetically. There is a switch inside the room, and a switch in my office. If someone is nervous about being trapped, we will just leave the doors unlocked/unsealed, and point out the emergency exit windows (yes, we have those in case the main exit isn’t an option in an emergency). We are lucky to be on ground floor level. I have never worked at a place that don't have 1. A locked door that couldn’t be easily unlocked. 2. No emergency exits. You (as a player) should avoid places that don’t have those things. It’s not difficult to come up with ways to make escape rooms safe, even if it slightly sacrifices “realism”. You can call the escape room places to ask about their lock policy, or visit a place to check out whether they have and practice safety measures.
