LOOK: There’s a Virtual Escape Room Inspired by “Kingdom”

Calling all fellow ‘Kingdom’ fans! If you’re still on a high from the special episode spin-off ‘Kingdom: Ashin of the North’ and can’t wait for the next installment of the hit Netflix original series, here’s a treat for you: a virtual escape room with a ‘Kingdom’ theme!

Smart Communications, Inc. (Smart) has teamed up with Mystery Manila to create a specially themed virtual escape room that transports subscribers to a world of unnatural plagues, political conspiracies, and all kinds of chaos found in the award-winning show.

Kingdom Virtual Escape Room

Mystery Manila is known for its experiential and immersive escape rooms; but due to the pandemic, they have innovated to online escape room executions that still provide the same thrill and excitement that Filipinos know and enjoy.

Upon entering the escape room, you will find yourself trapped inside the magistrate’s library surrounded by bloodthirsty zombies. To find your way to safety, you will undergo a series of challenges with clues in the form of books and scrolls, letting you experience the chilling scenes from the horrific Dongnae world.

The nerve-wracking Kingdom-inspired virtual escape room is now open via smartnetflix.mysterymanila.com.

Race against time, challenge your friends and make the experience even more memorable by posting and sharing it online using the official hashtag #SmartNetflix #EscapeFromDongnae. You may also try the customized IG filters from @LiveSmart and check to see which role you are destined to play during the zombie outbreak.
