Escape Rooms, and Puzzles and, Riddles, Oh My!

Ended Sun, Dec 31, 2023

Hi everyone!

Every week will be a new challenge. A new obstacle to overcome. A new hurdle to jump, and a new mountain to climb.

You'll learn how to adapt to a wide range of scenarios and learn things about the world we live in. And the best part? We're doing it all through games!

Every week, we'll have a new puzzle to solve, or a game to play. Afterward, I'll show you how, and why it works! We'll often have a theme for our questions, which will be listed in the session description for that day.

Now, let's learn something new together, shall we?

Gimkit Enthusiasts Club!

Ended Sat, Dec 30, 2023

Hello Gimkit Enthusiasts! 

Our stage is set on a beach. The people of Fishtopia are few and far between. Suddenly the sky opens up! One of the small gims runs around screaming, "The sky is falling! The sky is Falling!" A giant question block falls from the sky and lands in the middle of their island.

With their newfound resource, the new gims start to build things. They make trees into sticks, into fishing rods. They use this resource, energy, to build their civilization, and they explore other parts of the island.

Division starts to grow between gims. Those who support truth become part of the vortex faction, and those that support ideals become part of the echo faction. Each side is constantly sending spies and sabotages to remove the other side's leaders.

Two entities, Vesper and "The Crafter" communicate on alternate dimension travel. "The Crafter" is obsessed with finding out the secret to cross-dimensional communication.

After this happened, The Crafter worked harder. But eventually, a disastrous accident happened and the experiments merged all of the Realms/Gamemodes together, causing parts of Echo, Vortex, Fishtopia, and Farmchain to combine.

The gims who didn't join either faction create a third, led by Rocky West. Their goal is to improve the world through science. They stumble upon a horrific discovery. Their world will be covered in snow. Rocky's predictions come to pass, as the gims fight through a long and cold winter.

Echo, in their quest for greater knowledge and power, fly on the ship The Alphastar to Tenebris, a place their research tells them is filled with resources. This captures the interest of The Crafter, who leaves a note.

Echo brings some chemical supreme on board, which the scientist pours on the plants in the garden. The plants gain a mind of their own and become evil. During their takeover, the evil plants steal keycards from members of the crew.

One of the plants was created different, and stronger from the rest. The boss evil plant created 4 more like him. Three of them he entrusted with gold keycards, which when used, can unlock strong weapons and the 1st of the 10 keycards that can unlock his location

When he is defeated he drops his own Wooden Wand (the weapon of the plants) which has magical properties. The player onboard the Alphastar is suspected to be the Vesper, because in Crafter’s note to Vesper, it states that he sometimes suffers from memory loss. Remembering your Roots includes someone who is confused by memories they somehow have.

The spaceship has crash-landed on a deserted planet, and it's our job to build it from the ground up. We're the creators of this new-found world.

So, let's get started, shall we?
