An escape game, often referred to as an escape room, is a physical or virtual adventure game in which players are locked in a room or environment and must use elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles, discover clues, and complete tasks to progress and ultimately escape within a set time limit. The themes and settings of escape games can vary widely, ranging from haunted houses and prisons to fantasy worlds and historical scenarios.
The objective is to promote teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving skills as participants work together to uncover hidden clues, decode messages, and unlock locks. Escape games are popular as team-building exercises, entertainment options, and unique challenges for friends and family. They can be found in physical locations, such as dedicated escape room facilities, or as digital experiences that can be played online or through virtual reality platforms.
