Some memories are worth killing for.
Initiate Memory Recovery Get Answers NowBut how did it begin? Think back to the party...
Marcus Blackwood's underground party. NeurAI's CEO playing host to Silicon Valley's shadow players. The warehouse. The music. Sarah was there. You were there.
Now he's dead, and everyone's memories are up for sale.
That was then. This is now.
20 suspects. 120 minutes. Your memories are the evidence.
Four steps. 120 minutes. Every choice matters.
5-20 players enter together. You might know some. Others are strangers with their own agendas.
You're not just a player. You're a character with a past, connections, and secrets worth protecting.
Solve physical puzzles scattered throughout the space. Each unlocks memory fragments from last night.
Your memories have value to others. Negotiate, trade, or hoard them. Every choice changes the outcome.
Unlock memory fragments hidden throughout the space. Each solution reveals another piece of last night's events.
Your recovered memories have value. Trade for power, sell for advantage, or use as leverage.
Observe. Deduce. Manipulate. The truth is whatever you can prove to the others.

Fremont's Premier Escape Room Venue
Silicon Valley's hub for innovative gaming experiences. Partnering to bring this groundbreaking fusion of escape room mechanics and immersive theater to life in their transformed warehouse space.
Real answers to real questions.
A 2-hour pop-up immersive crime thriller where you play a character with fragmented memories. Solve puzzles to recover your memories, then decide whether to trade, keep, or weaponize them. Part escape room, part roleplay, part social strategy game.
Minimum 5 players, maximum 20. Don't have a full group? You'll be paired with others – and trust us, playing with strangers adds to the tension and strategy.
Possibly, yes. This game thrives on unexpected alliances and rivalries and we believe it's actually more fun with strangers. However, if you would prefer to not play with anyone else, book an empty time slot and there's an option to block out the rest of the slots for a small fee.
Plan for 2 hours of gameplay, with around 20 minutes of on-boarding and offboarding.

If you're interested in experiencing About Last Night... but the price is too prohibitive for you right now, please send us an email at hello@patchworkadventures and we're happy to send you some promo codes to make the experience more accessible.
We fiercely believe in paying our team well, but we also hate that puzzle games and immersive experiences are accessible only to the privileged.
We have plenty of promo codes available, so please don't hesitate to message us if the cost is any concern.
With pop-up immersive experiences like this, the first few weeks are always about refining the little things. So we wanted to make the first two weeks of tickets more accessible as a thank you for helping us make this experience better.
Don't get us wrong, the 40+ puzzles are all tested and ready. The characters and their story arcs are all ready for you to roleplay, however you'd like.
But there's some larger group trading/backstabbing/selling mechanics that we'd like to see more groups tackling before we say we're officially open.
This is a limited-run pop-up experience running through December 28, 2025.
