Heads up, people! There&#8217;s gonna be a GAME in there from 13th to 22nd February by the Real Escape Game People.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em><b>LAST GARDEN: Save Nature, Save Humanity<\/b> revolves around a futuristic Singapore in year 2065. The island city-state has developed into an extremely advanced self-sufficient country. However, the energy source that powers Gardens by the Bay is depleting at a rapid rate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>There is only one way to save it: Legend has it that if one finds the legendary orb somewhere in Gardens by the Bay, it will then receive tremendous power such that not only will the eco-system be saved from threat, new offspring of flowers will also blossom. Embark on a quest to discover the legendary orb and save nature and humanity!<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>You can get the tickets online here: <a href=\"http:\/\/lastgarden.peatix.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/lastgarden.peatix.com\/<\/a> .<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s going to be different than the regular REG ones because it&#8217;s more of up to YOU to solve it when you visit the gardens instead of\u00c2\u00a0 scary one hour deadline trapped in a room. Actually, I don&#8217;t know how it is, but I WILL FIND OUT on the day itself.<\/p>\n<p>Oh and before you guys ask, no. I&#8217;m not going to reveal the answers or whatever it is.<\/p>\n<p>Did you know people <em>do<\/em> email about this? For the various REG games even BEFORE they have played. It&#8217;s quite spoilerific if they want to know how to solve before they do it, don&#8217;t they?<\/p>\n<p>Where&#8217;s the fun in that?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway. There we go.
