Run Around follows six high school students whose routine escape-room outing turns into a real-life psychological trap. When they discover the room was designed specifically for one of them—Marcus Chen—they uncover a decades-old conspiracy involving a vanished tycoon, a silenced journalist, and Marcus’s own grandmother. As puzzles give way to buried truths, the group realizes the escape room is not a game but a carefully constructed delivery system for evidence meant to reopen a cold case. Trapped by time, heat, and suspicion, they must work together to expose a crime that has waited twenty years to be solved.
