Frequently Asked Questions

Game Play

What is an escape game and how do you play?

Escape games are composed of a series of creative puzzles and clues that need to be solved to complete an objective. Our escape games can be played at home as all of the game components are included. They come as both Boxed, ready-to-play games, and as Print & Play games. We offer games of varying levels of difficulty - perfect for those new to escape games and as experienced players as well.

What is the difference between Print & Play and the Boxed Game?

Our Print and Play Games come as instant downloads, perfect for a need-it-now activity. Upon download, the pages will need to be printed in color and the game components cut out and prepared before playing.

Our Boxed Games come ready-to-play. No printing, cutting, or assembly required. These also have a more developed system for providing hints, enhancing the game play.

How long does it take to play?

Each game is designed to take approximately 60 minutes. The actual play time may vary based on the number of players and their level of experience.

What if I get stuck on a puzzles?

Each game comes with a full set of hints that can be referenced at anytime during game play. The hints are designed to help everyone understand and solve each puzzle.

What if we have a larger group?

Each game has a recommended number of players. This is based on the amount of game content available at any given time and the number of players it can actively keep engaged. For larger groups, we suggest ordering multiple copies for simultaneous, head-to-head game play.

Print & Plays only require one purchase per household and can be printed multiple times. This is a great option for those hosting a party for family or friends.

Boxed games come fully assembled and ready to play! You will need to purchase multiple boxes to accommodate larger groups.
