If you are a fan of the world of physical escape rooms, you also know that often participating a in 2-Player escape room has implications both from an economic point of view, since the prices (rightly) are higher than if one participates as a group, and on playability too; often an hour, especially if the pair is untrained, can be tight to solve all the puzzles. In fact, it is precisely the escape room companies that recommend participation in groups of 3-4 players to make the experience optimal.
Today, we at MsyterU explain why our games are the perfect 2-player escape room options!
MysterU: What Is It?
Before we begin by explaining why our cases are optimal 2-player escape rooms, let’s look at what MysterU is and specifically outline our cases.
MysterU games take their origins from the classic physical escape rooms, but then separate themselves from them in the way that they are played. We are not, in fact, talking about a transposition of the classic game rooms into virtual; it is not a video game, but a new product, which combines in itself the mystery and immersiveness of physical escape rooms, with the practicality and playability that only digital can give.
Specifically, our MysterU games are presented as cases to be solved. Once you have chosen the case, you will become in effect, secret agents, and you will be called upon to investigate for clues and traces that we have scattered all over the open web.
You will have to surf sites, social networks and forums, because that is where the missing pieces of the puzzle lie. Once you have found the clues, you will have to enter them into the platform of our site, in a kind of archive that will allow you to study the case and then deduce the solution.

2-Player Escape Room: An Overview Of Our Cases
On our website there are three cases available, differing in story, difficulty and game length.
The Cook is the longest and most complex case, suitable for adult players. You will have to investigate to discover the identity of a criminal who calls himself “the Cook,” search for clues and synthesize all the evidence you find to reveal his identity. The estimated duration of the game is 2-3 hours.
The Black Tulip is of medium difficulty, so it is also suitable for children from 14 years of age. As in the previous case, the setting here is that of a spy-story, a very mysterious setting of double-crosses and secretly investigating agents. And that is exactly what you will have to do; retrieve some identities to clear up suspicious activities. The duration of this case is about 60-90 min.
Ghosts, finally, is our MysterU game suitable for younger children. Although the setting is always shrouded in an aura of mystery, the content is specifically designed to stimulate curiosity and logic in children as young as 6 years old. The story involves helping a man create an antidote to ward off spirits that threaten people’s peace of mind. Because it is created for a very young audience, the estimated duration is 30-40 minutes.
3 Reasons To Choose MysterU If You Are 2 People
Now that you may be clearer about what we are talking about, let’s see why our cases make for the perfect 2-player escape rooms!
- Cost-effectiveness: Participating in a physical escape room as two, by necessity, has a fairly high cost. Our cases, being virtual, are not subject to the common logic of the market, which is why the price is the same whether you play it in 2 or 10. You purchase a game package, then you can decide how many and how to play.
- Duration: No one-hour timers will be aimed at making you anxious, so you can take as long as you want to solve the case! The suggested game time is only an estimate: it can take longer or shorter, and this relates both to the cost-effectiveness factor (compared to a classic escape room, at a lower price a longer game time is guaranteed) and to the following aspect.
- Playability: The entire case does not have to be played all at once! Once you buy the game, a secret agent account will be created with which to conduct your investigations, and if you get tired at some point, you can stop playing and resume at any other time, even weeks later, because your progress will be saved!
