Escape Room Game FAQs 

What’s an Escape Room Board Game? 

An escape room board game is like stepping into a locked room full of secrets, except it’s all laid out on your dining table. You and your teammates work through challenges, clues, and puzzles to “escape” before time runs out. It's all the pressure, fun, and bragging rights of a real-life escape room, minus the awkward small talk with strangers.

How Do Escape Room Board Games Work? 

It’s simple: gather your mates, pick your game, and prepare for a challenge. You choose a scenario (trapped in a lab? Cursed Egyptian crypt? Lost in a spooky manor?), read the setup, and then start solving puzzles to move the story along. Some versions, like our puzzle books, let you fly solo, while others are classic board games with cards, locks, and secret compartments. The goal? Solve everything before time runs out and “escape” the scenario.  Don’t worry if you're new to it, most sets come with instructions and hints to help you escape with your dignity intact.

How Hard Are the Escape Room Games? 

Whether you’re a puzzle pro or a total newbie, there’s something here for everyone. Most escape room board games are rated for ages 12+ or 16+, making them perfect for family nights, adult friend groups, or even parties where you want more than just the usual charades.

How Many People Can Play? 

Most escape room board games are best with 2–5 players, though that can vary depending on the title. It’s the perfect excuse to gather the gang, test your collective brainpower, and find out who cracks under pressure. (Spoiler: It’s usually the one who insists they’re “great at logic”.)
