Mini classroom escape room

A free classroom escape room played on one screen or on phones, in three rooms: a math chain opens the library, the red planet opens the science lab, and the seconds in an hour open the exit. About twenty minutes for a whole class, nothing to print, no equipment beyond the projector, and you can play it right now. The template is free: it publishes as it is on the free plan, players open a link without signing up, and the lock never expires.

Questions about this template

How do I run an escape room in the classroom with thirty pupils?
Project the link on the class screen and let the class call out answers while one pupil types, or share the link to phones and let groups race. Every step has a hint, a wrong answer only shows your own message, and the last screen asks the winners to write their time on the board.
Can I change the three rooms for my subject?
Yes. Each step is a question, a lock and a clue to the next room; rewrite any of them for your subject and year group, and put your school's real room names in the story. A free account publishes up to three steps; more steps come with the Event Pass or Pro.
Is this digital escape room free for teachers?
Yes. It is one basic multi-step lock: three steps in a row, each with its riddle, hint and your own wrong-answer line, ending on a designed diploma. A free account publishes it as it is, players need no account, and it never expires.
Is this template free?
Yes. Playing it, copying it and publishing it cost nothing, and a free lock never expires.
Can I change the answers and the texts?
Yes. Every code, clue, hint and reward opens in the builder, and nothing is saved until you publish.
What do players need?
A phone or a computer with a browser. They open your link or scan your QR code, and never create an account.
How long does it take to play?
About 20 minutes, from the first lock to the reward.
