What is a digital escape room?

A digital escape room challenges students to solve a series of clues and puzzles to escape a virtual room. It begins with a high-interest theme and storyline. Students find hidden links to interactive content-based activities they need to solve to crack the secret codes and escape! Escape rooms are fun and engaging for students and they LOVE them!

Students can work collaboratively in teams or independently. This escape room is meant to be challenging and should take your students 45 minutes to an hour to complete, depending on ability levels.
