PEOPLE is located in San Francisco’s Japantown at 1746 Post St.
“The Real
Escape Game” is an inventive live game event originally created in Japan that
requires players to cooperate and use their detective skills to solve multiple
mysteries to locate a hidden key in order to escape from a locked room within a
limited time.
The U.S. edition, “The Escape From The Werewolf Village,” will be staged inside the 3rd Floor
SUPERFROG Gallery at NEW PEOPLE, which will be remade as a mysterious village beset by fierce
werewolves! As villagers disappear one by one, players must cooperate and use
their deductive skills to gather clues and escape before the werewolves attack!
The game setting will be accentuated with the use of
actors, music, sound effects and lighting elements to add ambiance and immerse
