The Blade screening game

Looks like plans for the escape room style game to go with the anniversary screening of Blade got dialled back a bit on the night. The human, vampire, hunter and familiar teams didn’t seem to go ahead.

The first puzzle was a sliding block game on a touchscreen, which since there were a couple hundred people in the audience could have usefully had more than one available. (It tied in to some nice computer graphics and imitation news and adverts playing on projector walls.) The second puzzle was doable by a larger group, but could have also been available in more than one place.

The third, based on Pearl from the film, was a right laugh. More of this kind of thing!

The screening itself also featured bits of theatre, lighting and smoke. It probably wasn’t the ideal way to see the film for the first time.
