You know what's bullshit? The escape room I just went to

Did you make sure to use these tips?

The Nonary Game: Bullshit Edition

dude, it's like disarm a bomb: cut the wrong wire, THEN KABOOM!

No matter how hard u tried to open the case.

p.s. is this entire experience costed ur 200bucks??

It was free for the students. IDK how much the school paid for it.

That honestly sounds like a complete scam of an escape room.

What was the question?

We were learning about a guy's life story all the way through and the question was to select the guy's photo out of three, based on the things you remember.

"what is your favourite color?" ?

Sheeeit I'd start sweating and getting mad, freaking out that I just want to step outside. Too weak to play.

That sucks.

*mentions something about a jacket early in*
*90mins later*
ok so pick the picture of the guy based on what you know
*only 1 has a jacket, wrong answer*

welcome to life

This reminds me of Bullshit Man. "You know what's BUUUUULLLLLLLSHIT!?"

@Subtle Demise that was exactly what I had in mind. I expected a lengthy and vulgar rant about it.

@Subtle Demise @VinsCool
I intentionally named the entry that because of Bullshit Man.

"That's not how escape rooms work! There should've been a time limit and an endless number of tries with all the puzzles."?
Why?

There are any number of games, activities and such that you can fail at the final hurdle for. Furthermore if you have been lulled into believing things are able to be solved with brute force then that sounds like a nice twist on what would be a stale formula.

escape room?
the fuck is that, why you have to do that?

I did one once. My friends got really into it. There was a phone, some cameras, books etc. My friend found some wires with some tape and numbers written on them. He started pulling on them and was like "guys guys i found something!" The phone started ringing so I ran over to answer it, thinking we had solved our first mystery. Nope. It was the operators watching us work the room.
"Hey! Quit wrecking our cameras!"

While search engines do exist I might as well go it.
Ever played one of those locked room computer games where you investigate the contents of drawers, find clues, solve puzzles, complete mazes... to either escape, rescue someone, break into a safe or achieve something similar? That but in real life. While similar things have existed for many years they variously* got pretty popular in recent times all over the world as evening or group entertainment.

*UK wise while not an escape room (technically a trademark) there was a setup made to mimic the crystal maze which was an immensely popular game show in the early 90s, reruns of which carried on for many many years afterwards. They charged a lot but got booked solid for years on end, such that it was reported on and that only made things worse. The US followed something of a different path, and Australia a different one again.
