Are there any favorite sections or specific links that you would like to mention?īrett Kuehner: The “Puzzle Design” section is a favorite, especially the articles by Errol Elumir and Rita Orlov. I can add a new item in seconds, and readers can make comments and suggest additions using the standard Google docs interface. Why do you use the simple Google doc format?īrett Kuehner: It is the lowest-overhead way for me to make the information available. Plus I do searches for information on various topics when I’m working on a project or a lesson.

How do you find all of these different posts and articles?īrett Kuehner: I follow a bunch of Discords, Facebook groups, and blogs. I only add things that I’ve read and which I think are high in information content. I think it is helpful to have a curated list. It made sense to make a single location for that information, and it makes it simpler for me to share. When discussions on these topics came up, I found myself recommending the same articles again and again. What is the purpose or goal for maintaining this list of resources?īrett Kuehner: I do escape room design, tech for control systems, and teach classes on design, so I do a lot of research. I asked Brett a bit about his collection. There is something for escape room designers of all levels. This is a valuable resource that more people need to know about.
