Reality Escape Pod - Escape Rooms & Immersive Games

The History Behind "The Roosevelt Room" by Palace Games


Listen Later

Chris Alden, owner of Palace Games, joins us to share some true stories about chance meetings between Houdini and Teddy Roosevelt, and how this ties into the story of The Roosevelt Room. He tells us about how the progression of the game is meant to mimic the arc of wartime: from the romanticization of war propaganda to the brutal reality of the trenches.
