You step through the glass doors at The Rim and the mall noise contracts—clocks tick toward a single deadline, props hum with hidden mechanisms, and a game guide greets your team with a grin and a briefing. Inside, rooms are built to pull you into a single story for an hour: a sun-faded gold rush cabin, the sterile hum of a submarine, a locked cell with narrow light slits. The air is chilled; the countdown begins.
