Escape Room: The Game

Four cooperative, timed escape-room scenarios present different themes—prison break, contagious outbreak, bomb defusal, and Aztec temple exploration—and each challenges the group to work through three stages of puzzles within 60 minutes. Players examine cards, images and props to decode gears, words, shapes, maps and other clues, slide hint cards into a decoder when stuck, and insert keys into the central Chrono Decoder to submit answers. An analog timer counts down and penalizes incorrect submissions by removing time, so teams must balance speed and accuracy. The base set contains the four scenarios in increasing difficulty and requires the Chrono Decoder to play.
