La Fuga - real-life role-playing game

March issue of Wired has an article about another location based entertanment venue in Madrid called " La Fuga" similar to the "TOMB: interactive, walk-through adventure experience" I posted in December.

"You're trapped in a high tech Spanish slammer, crawling through real tunnels, behind real bars. First-person gameplay breaks out of the box...Think of La Fuga (The Escape) as a $20 million cross between Halo and laser tag. The goal is simple: Decipher visual riddles to navigate and escape Mazzina, a high tech prison".

(Thanks to Steve Mayer for the pointer.)

Sounds neat. Oh, the LBE's you could do after selling a dot com to Yahoo!!

Just fyi, it's not a role playing game. But it's still really cool conceptually.

LBE's ROCK - time for a field trip!

If only I could afford a trip to Madrid!

These crazy Spaniards and Argentinean’s... they are doing a lot of role player games integrating interactivity with on site experiences and real actors since "La Fura Des Baus” appeared in the eighties.
I can talk with my parents and we could have a place to rest between the game turns. Flight tickets are no so expensive now 770 round trip in British Airways, very worthy if you think in terms of really good food, a lot of cultural life, nice people, especially beautiful women and night life. Very interactive...
