Wizard World Escape Rooms Presented by Last Minute Escape Offer Two Unique Experiences, ‘The Stones of Power,’ ‘The Rogue Robot,’ Designed For Con-Goers At Pennsylvania Convention Center, May 17-20

With four days of non-stop entertainment Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia attendees wouldn’t normally have “escape” on their minds-there’s far too much to do! But with the triumphant return of Wizard World Escape Rooms Presented by Last Minute Escape, that’s exactly what they’ll be thinking. They won’t be getting away from the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Center City Philadelphia, though.

 

For the second straight year, Wizard World is teaming with Last Minute Escape (www.lastminuteescape.com), one of the premiere escape room providers around, but this time it’s double the fun! Wizard World and LME will present two “Superhero Training Camp” themed Escape Rooms exclusively to show attendees! Those rooms are:

 
  • The Stones of Power: You will have 10 minutes to return the Stones of Power to their respective locations on the Compass of Truth. The Stones of Power are locked away and only through communication and teamwork will you be able to unlock them and return them to their rightful places. If you can accomplish this goal you will be one step closer to becoming a true Super Hero. If not, there is always next time…
  • The Rogue Robot: You will have 10 minutes to take control of a Rogue Robot that has come off of its programming! The Robot will need to be re-wired, but all of the components necessary have been locked away. Only through communication and teamwork will you be able to figure out how to disable the Rogue Robot and get one step closer to becoming a true Super Hero. If not, there is always next time…

 
The rooms are open all four days of the convention (May 17-20). Each game lasts 10-15 minutes, and tickets ($10 for one room, $16 for both) can be purchased on site or online in advance (with reserved times!) at www.lastminuteescape.com/wizard-world-2018/.
Wizard World Comic Con events bring together thousands of fans of all ages to celebrate the best in pop culture: movies, television, gaming, live entertainment, comics, sci-fi, graphic novels, toys, original art, collectibles, contests and more. The fifth event scheduled on the 2018 Wizard World calendar, Philadelphia show hours are Thursday, May 17, 4-9 p.m.; Friday, May 18, noon-7 p.m.; Saturday, May 19, 10 a.m.-7 p.m.; Sunday, May 20, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Kids 10 and under are admitted free with paid adult.
 
The 18th annual Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia is also the place for cosplay, with fans young and old showing off their best costumes throughout the event. Fans dressed as every imaginable character – and some never before dreamed – will roam the convention floor and participate in the famed Wizard World Costume Contest on Saturday evening.
