Welcome to the Mo Fang Heavy Industries blog! We’ve been helping content creators and puzzle authors realize their dreams through applied technology magic, with over ten years of experience.
Our work is part of many escape rooms, including Locurio’s The Vanishing Act, as well as various events held within the Seattle puzzling community (including the Microsoft Intern Game and Microsoft Puzzle Hunt).
Coming from a background in the commercial software industry, we specialize in complex logic and reliable networked systems – all elegantly hidden so the focus remains on the story and puzzle, rather than on the technology.
We of course are available to provide turnkey props built to your specifications, but we also love working with room owners with a DIY mindset. If you’re looking to build your own props and just need a bit of software assistance and hardware advice, we’re here for you too.
While helping our customers, we’ve found several recurring questions keep coming up where we think the broader community could benefit from our advice. We started this blog so we could share some of that knowledge – both to meet new customers and to give back to the community.
If there’s a topic you’d like to see us cover – or if you’d like to work with us on a project – please don’t hesitate to reach out to us, either in the comments section or via e-mail at contact@mofangheavyindustries.com. We’re looking forward to meeting you!
