Can the FOX 5 interns beat the 'Island Escape?'
This morning, the FOX 5 Atlanta summer interns attempted to beat the clock at Breakout Games in Buckhead while demonstrating their communication, critical thinking, and teamwork skills!
Paul tries to crack the code at Island Escape @ Breakout Games: The good news? Our college interns have been working so hard this summer that we decided to send them on an all-expenses-paid island vacation. The bad news? We forgot to tell them about the volcano that’s about to erupt! This morning on Good Day Atlanta, we spent a few hours at Breakout Games in Buckhead, "locking" our summer interns in the Island Escape room and gleefully watching as they raced to find a way out. We’re no strangers to Breakout Games here at FOX 5 Atlanta, having featured previous escape rooms including Clue and Kidnapping 2: Afraid of the Dark—the latter of which we also used as an intern training exercise! Each of the facility’s ten themed rooms challenges players to solve puzzles and collect clues in an effort to "escape" within 60 minutes.
