Imagine a place where you did real life quests, sung in a bar, and met actors who were characters in a continuous story. That was Evermore park. It was inspiration for my job, and one of the few Theme Parks that was known in the Pacific Northwest. It has been declared over

There appears to be two parts to this story. One, the person who owned the land had no idea how to run it and wants to build something he understands. Two, the people who did know how to run it were caught up in their own SJW hug box they couldn't see outside of their own problems.

The creator of Evermore also created the Void VR experience company. They did well, but had terrible financial planning. The company has gone into different hands since then, but the original idea is great. Players wear VR gear and walk through actual hallways with props. Everything feels like what is being seen through the visor. It's a genius thing, and way ahead of it's time. They even had a location at Disney world

Bretschnieder now runs the Grid, which is a giant interactive FEC. Mixed reality go karts, smaller VR experiences and more.

It's not only sad to see it go, but also shows signs of innovation being crushed by bad management and people who prey on these organizations.
