Every player signed before the briefing, including your puzzle NDA — so your game master starts on time instead of handing out clipboards.
Escape rooms run on a clock. A sixty-minute game with a ten-minute briefing has no slack for six people filling in forms in the lobby, and every late start compresses your turnaround for the next booking.
An escape room waiver sent with the booking solves both the liability and the schedule. Players sign at home, your game master sees a full green roster, and you can bundle a spoiler NDA into the same signature so your puzzles stay off social media.
This is a practical checklist, not legal advice. Have your final wording reviewed by an attorney or your insurer before you go live.
Bundle a confidentiality clause into the waiver so every player agrees not to publish your puzzle solutions.
Booking-linked signing means your game master briefs at the scheduled minute instead of chasing pens.
See each booking as a team roster with signed and outstanding players, and nudge the ones holding you up.
Capture claustrophobia, photosensitivity and mobility needs so your game master can adapt the room in advance.
Walk-ins and corporate add-ons sign on a tablet in the lobby, resetting automatically between teams.
One link for a forty-person corporate event, split across rooms and time slots but tracked as a single booking.

Yes, and most operators do. It sits as its own clause with a required initial so agreement to confidentiality is explicit.
Under eighteen in most US states. The form routes any under-age player to a guardian consent block automatically based on their date of birth.
Frame it as a comfort question rather than a medical one. Operators typically ask if the player wants a non-locking door or an early-exit briefing.
