2020 Escape Room Enthusiast Survey

2020 Survey
Screenshot of the Interactive Dashboard

Lee-Fay and Errol have once again compiled the results of the annual Escape Room Enthusiast Survey and this time the focus was on online games. I tried to recreate the results and insights that Lee-Fay and Errol captured in the PDF report which is quite a different take from the 2019 visualization version that was much more of a creative endeavor. 

As always, the visualization is best viewed on a large screen and you should click around on various charts and filters to see how things turned out.

2018 Escape Room Enthusiast Survey Dashboard

Click the image to see the actual interactive dashboard. Best viewed on a large screen. 
I wanted to play around with Lee-Fay and Errol's 2018 Escape Room Survey data so I created this interactive dashboard. Unlike a normal infographic, you can filter data or click segments of the various graphs see the charts dynamically update. It's pretty cool if you play around with it.

The dashboard is best viewed on a large screen as it does not resize for mobile.

Some Tips

The filters on the top of the pages ("Gender", "Age", "What Country Do You Live In") will resize the visuals to only show data from your selection.
  • For example, if you select "United States" (from the drop down menu), all charts now only display data from enthusiasts with the response of "United States" for the question "What country do you live in?". It looks like the below, although it's hard to see differences in a small image so please try it out for yourself.

"United States" filter selected so all charts represent US enthusiasts

Clicking on a segment in a visual will show you how much that segment represents in all visuals as part of the entire data set (overall visuals will not resize). To clear your selection, click again anywhere on any chart.
  • If you click on the United States on a visual, in this case the map, the data will look like the below 
The charts still show the entire survey data but with the United States responses highlighted

You can quickly compare how various attributes and percent contributions change based on slicing the data by say age, number of escape rooms played or any other criteria found on the dashboard.

Let me know what you think and how it can be improved!

2018 Escape Room Enthusiast Survey

TheCodex.ca released the results of the 2018 Escape Room Enthusiast Survey today based on the responses from 562 people (up from 250 in 2017). Given that this was compiled as a pastime, it looks amazing and definitely worth a read for anybody interested in how escape rooms enthusiasts think about various elements of the industry.

One of the more interesting stats is found below:


Normally, Yelp and Trip Advisor are the go-to resources for people in determining which rooms to play. Of course they are the most exhaustive but not necessarily the most reliable. The range of star ratings on Yelp is small, often almost all establishments fall between 4-5 stars making it difficult to tell the good from the bad so we highly recommend consulting enthusiast ratings in order to maximize your time to have the best possible experience.

Thanks to Lee-Fay and Errol for compiling this survey!
