Looking for people for escape room in San Jose I want to go to Joker's Asylum ER in San Jose (California) on the 7th of August, two days before GCJ finals. It's a difficult escape room and a team should consist of 5-10 people. So far, there's me and my friend &mdash; not really pros. I'm looking for more people to go there and maybe grab a beer later. If the date is fine for you and you are good at ER and/or algo, write a DM to me. This room has very good reviews and the escape room veteran [user:Swistakk,2019-07-12] recommends it a lot. Sounds promising, right?
