It is wonderful to see the students’ skills and abilities really shine through during a mission, as well as their enjoyment. Every group with which I’ve done these missions has been so engaged, actively participating in their learning. If groups are struggling with a puzzle, I will give them clues. I either give them the go-ahead if the answer is correct or a time penalty if it’s not. When a group has their answer to a puzzle, they come to me. Each group gets a mission package then they race against the other groups to score the best time. I print out multiple copies of the mission and then have students divide themselves up into small groups of no more than 4. I’ve used the training mission and missions 1 and 2 as a team-building activity with great success. If you run out of time, you may still move forward, trying to work through the puzzles, but the timed hints won’t work quite as well and your thematic experience might be a little soured.Īs a teacher, I’ve found that Escape Team really shines in a classroom setting with children 8 and up. This is pretty neat because the puzzles in a mission are solved sequentially so the app will know whether you’ve progressed far enough in the mission given the time elapsed. If you’re stuck on a puzzle, the app will also prompt timed hints which begin quite generic and get more detailed as the clock ticks down. An incorrect code will result in a time penalty. If the code is correct, the app will give more details about the story. You will also be using the app to input your answers (a numerical code) for each puzzle. Why even bother with the app? Well, because the app will introduce each mission’s setting as well as provide a real-time play-by-play of events as you progress through the puzzles. While the training mission and the first mission are free to access in the app, the rest are in-app purchases for $0.99 each. ![]() Unlike many print and play games which require you to have the crafting skills of a Pinterest extraordinaire, you only need to print the PDF mission files (which are no more than 7 single-sided pages) and download the app to start playing Escape Team. There are currently 6 missions (1 training mission and 5 other adventures) that are free to download and print from the Escape Team website. ![]() Escape Team – Ashley GariepyĮscape Team is a printable, interactive escape game that only requires a pen or pencil, paper, an app, and scissors.
