Overview
Welcome to holo8, a unique escape room experience set within the temporary Hololive office. Players find themselves inexplicably stuck on the 8th floor after finishing work, with the elevator repeatedly returning them to the same spot. The only clues are cryptic instructions within the elevator itself: "If you notice anomaly, get on the red elevator." and "If you can't find anomaly, take the blue elevator." The ultimate goal is simple: reach the first floor and escape the surreal loop.
