Due to the pandemic, 2020 was the year of ER Champ (r)evolution. First of all, the name changed from Poland Escape to ER Champ. The championship itself has expanded its horizons - no longer just the Polish championship, but the world championship. We changed the format to be able to adjust to the world situation.
Participants
Teams
The ER Champ 2020 competition was held entirely online. It consisted of two stages - qualifications and finals. Due to the online form of the competition, many non-Polish speaking teams were able to participate. The plot was related to the Sekurex company, whose CEO hired testers to check the latest security features, and the players' goal was to break them in the shortest possible time.
The qualifications determined the top 100 teams, who faced each other in the finals. In the end, for the first time in the history of the competition, the entire podium was filled by teams not from Poland. This confirmed our belief that we had made good decisions. The winners came from Canada, Japan, and the United States.

Qualifications
You will face the story of a young server administrator who has to deal with a system failure as a result of which the World Escape Room Championship may not happen. It is a story full of plot twists and humor that will make anyone laugh. The level is relatively long, but its difficulty level is quite moderate.

Stress test
This is the test stage from 2020. A short 10-minute game that allowed us to test the power of our servers. This stage was prepared by Hanna and Tomasz - lock.me employees and takes place in a room imitating the lock.me office.

Finals
The first online competition finale in ER Champ history. This is a spinoff of the story from this years' eliminations, when you had to sneak into the SEKUREX headquarters to test their security features. There is a relatively short but demanding stage ahead of you. World champions solved it in less than 50 minutes.
