In Escape Room: Great Escapes, participants will dive behind the scenes of escape rooms and discover what it takes to create mind-bending puzzles and games. They’ll collaborate with a local escape room, including a field trip to Red Fox Escapes where they will get to try out a real escape room and learn from their experience. Then, they will go back to the drawing board to design and fabricate interactive props and mindboggling puzzles inspired by legendary escapes and escape artists throughout history, such as Houdini's handcuff tricks, escape attempts from Alcatraz, and other iconic events. This immersive experience blends critical thinking and creativity, challenging participants to create an escape room full of riddles, design mind-bending puzzles, and uncover clues in thrilling, history-driven adventures.
