Escape Team (2017)

About this game

Escape Team is a print&play, interactive pen&paper escape game. Before playing, players print out a PDF document for their mission. It contains the missions' puzzles, which require folding, cutting, drawing and glueing. The Escape Team app provides audio narrative, background music and a countdown. Also, it serves as the game master, checking the puzzles' solutions through a PIN pad.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 2.8/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 11 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
