(Fiona) Here’s the schedule for the second week of my Christmas Quest fundraising event.

Sunday November 27th: Morning, afternoon and evening slots available Thursday December 1st: 10am Friday December 2nd: 8:30pm Saturday December 3rd: Morning, afternoon and evening slots available

The game is for teams of 2-5 players and lasts an hour. It costs 1000 yen to play (500 yen for elementary to university students) and 75% of proceeds go to Team Tonakai. The location is Britz English School/Escape from Britz, 1-1-8 Onoue, Higashi-ku and reservations can be made by sending a message via Kumamoto-i or the Escape from Britz page.

To clarify, there is no escape element to this game. You are not locked in a room and are free to leave at any time! The game is about searching for items, solving puzzles and trying to complete a quest before time runs out. Some English is needed but it’s not too difficult and hints are available. The game is entirely my own creation and I’m planning to keep it open until Christmas.

Since no-one has come to play the game yet, I’m offering an added incentive - bookings made before the end of November qualify for free mince pies!
