Ask HN: A service for dating through escape rooms with strangers?

2 hours ago 1

What if you could meet potential dates by teaming up with strangers in an escape room challenge?

You’d get thrown into a fun, high-pressure puzzle scenario with 4–6 other singles. You’d see how people actually think, communicate, and cooperate. This is way more revealing than a typical first date.

After the escape room, everyone fills out a private questionnaire about whom they’d like to go on a date with (if anyone). Only mutual matches are notified afterward. No awkward “asking out” moments, no pressure.

It’s kind of a blend between speed dating and team-based problem solving, but more memorable and revealing than either.

Do you think this would be a good idea?
