Last year, shortly after they had opened, The Escape Challenge invited us down to their place to see if we could conquer their first escape challenge. The results were, well, not so good. It turned out that we certainly weren't alone in failing the challenge. So, this year, when we were asked to try their new escape challenge, we thought maybe this was our time for redemption.

We gathered together some of the crew who had previously tried, and failed, the challenge, along with some new minds to help us try to crack this one. Here's how things went:

In the end, we conquered the challenge with six minutes to spare! We were told that we took a lot less clues than most other groups and made good time. Perhaps it helped that some of us knew what to expect. Or maybe our new minds were just what we needed to get us over the top. In any case, we left victorious, and did, indeed, redeem ourselves.

We're giving you a chance to tackle the challenge, too. One lucky winner of our social sweeps contest will win a chance up to ten people to take an Escape Challenge for themselves. All you have to do is get social with us. Click the button below to get your chance...
