Battle of the Bands!

Battle of the Bands is a music-themed escape room where players become rival band members trapped in a backstage mystery. To escape, teams solve music-based puzzles, decode lyrics, and interact with custom-built props. Blending theatrical storytelling with hands-on mechanics, the experience combines performance, collaboration, and immersive play in a high-energy setting.
Learning Outcomes:
Through Battle of the Bands, I developed puzzles tied to musical rhythm and narrative, designed physical interactions, and collaborated with students from concept design, film, and product design to build custom props. I gained experience in immersive storytelling, timing-based challenges, and managing the player experience within a live environment. This project sharpened my skills in spatial design, user flow, and group-based gameplay.
