OUR STORY:
The founders, Jason and Nicole, are Boston locals who hope that your Trapology® Boston game experience will be an intoxicating escape from reality. The two Bentley graduates have played escape games all over the world and are excited to bring their creative interpretation of the escape game experience to Boston. Though their backgrounds are in finance and accounting, their experience in the theater community has been most helpful in building and designing an immersive game experience.
In 2015, the two were invited to play a live action game for a friend’s birthday. Jason was not happy about it. He thought the ideas was silly and attended begrudgingly. Fast forward to after the game (they lost, by the way), and the group of friends spent hours at a bar talking about how much fun they had whose fault it was that they didn’t win.
Inspired, the two were determined to bring their creative interpretation of escape games to Boston. They found a space in downtown Boston and took a risk together on a space that needed a heaping amount of TLC. The space was a rabbinical council for over 20 years. The floors were moldy once-blue carpets and the walls were stained all sorts of shades of yellow and green. The stunning main feature was the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the beautiful Boston Common.
Jason restored the floors to their original oak. Our team learned how to sledgehammer walls and break them down. New walls were put up. Nail by nail, Jason created a pallet wall from scrap wood found in Quincy. Nicole designed the first three Trapology games – The Drunk Tank, The Hustler, and The Retreat. Within 18 months, they outgrew their first 2,400 square foot space and signed a lease for the 5th floor, another 2,400 square foot space to host three more games!
The original small team of 2 is now a team of 19, with dedicated members for corporate team building, photo/video production and design, and audio engineering for Boston’s most strategic companies.
