Escape Hunt Reports Another At Home Doctor Who Escape Room Offering

Wed, 22nd Jul 2020 17:32

(Alliance News) - Escape Hunt PLC on Wednesday reported the launch of its latest play-at-home escape room offering, based on the BBC's hit television show Doctor Who.

The download, print & play game, Doctor Who: The Hollow Planet, can be played by two to six players and is a one-hour experience.

It serves as a prequel to Escape Hunt's previous release, Doctor Who: A Dalek Awakens.

The play-at-home games are a departure to Escape Hunt's usual offering of in-person escape room experiences.

"We are delighted to announce the release of Doctor Who: The Hollow Planet which brings together our recent success in offering downloadable play-games with our exciting partnership with BBC Studios and adds to our growing catalogue of experiences that can be enjoyed outside our physical rooms," Chief Executive Richard Harpham said.

Escape Hunt shares closed up 2.4% at 7.68 pence each on Wednesday in London.
