LEXINGTON, Ky., Sept. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Breakout, a leader in the growing escape-room industry, the largest Escape Room company in the nation, is revolutionizing family game night with the launch of a monthly mystery box subscription, Dispatch. Each delivery gives everyone—from families, to friends, to coworkers— an opportunity to unravel a mysterious crime from anywhere. Dispatch hit doorsteps nationwide in August 2017.
Dispatch channels the creativity and problem-solving skills of its recipients to piece together the new clues introduced with every delivery each month. Players are immersed in an international mystery upon opening their first Dispatch delivery, which contains physical clues leading to the web to unravel the crime. Each mystery unfolds over the course of several boxes, bringing an extended opportunity for families and friends to connect over time.
The inaugural box begins the "On the Run" narrative, interlacing murder, romance, scandal and more. Upon opening their first delivery, players find themselves entangled in the strange disappearance of their closest childhood friend who is suspected of killing his wife, a well-known heiress.
"Dispatch is a way for families to break away from everyday life and enter a world where solving clues can make anyone the story's hero," said Bryce Anderson, co-founder and Executive at Breakout. "By placing players directly in the narrative, Dispatch changes the pace of game night, deepening relationships and cultivating creativity from the first clue to the last."
In a culture inundated with online consumption, Dispatch offers an opportunity to unplug to connect with the people across the table. Through the detailed clues, community focus and user input, players utilize critical thinking, grow in creative processing and create real connections.
"We are taking the success we've seen in our growing escape room experience out of brick-and-mortar Breakout spaces and into your home. Instead of watching a movie, participants can live one. Instead of reading a book, players become characters," said Anderson. "Breakout connects people. We have seen families reconnect and couples get engaged. The interactive, ongoing story told through Dispatch over seven months will create even more communal wealth and relational depth for all subscribers."
