How do you play Escape Room?

Escape room games are based on following a story and solving various types of puzzles to progress. Games vary in style, but most follow the same basic idea: you are given a situation, a series of clues, and a clear goal, and then it's up to you to figure out how everything fits together.

Here are the most common elements in an escape room game:

• Cards and cluesCards, documents, and small snippets of text are often used to present puzzles, symbols, or codes that need to be interpreted. • Combination locks and decryption aidsMany games have a physical or digital “lock system” where you enter answers. The correct code moves you forward – incorrect answers often lead to more puzzles. • Thematic itemsMaps, letters, photographs, or other prop elements can contain both important information and well-hidden hints. • Time pressureSome games use a timer to create the feeling of a real escape room, where every minute counts. • Single-use and reusable gamesGame series like EXIT are designed for a single experience because you sometimes have to cut, tear, or fold the material. Other games – like Unlock ! – are completely replayable as they run via app and cards without anything being destroyed. The basic idea is always the same: use imagination, logic, and teamwork to crack the game's secrets and reach the goal.
