Escape From Home have various selections of digital escape games and DIY escape kits on their website. We tried one of each from these two categories and below are our thoughts on them. There are also three digital games on their website that you can try out for FREE.


This digital escape game had a really cool concept. It was build on a time travel theme based on real life events. As we solved each puzzle, a portal would open up and take us to another era. From there we would have to solve another puzzle in order to alter the past for a better future. The game started off a bit slow for us as it had a good amount of reading and there was one puzzle that would probably take some time for new players (you'll probably need to print this page out if you are unable to do it on the computer). If there could be an option to incorporate a prerecorded reading to read each character's story in different eras, it would make the digital game feel more immersive. As we started to grasp the game design, it became more enjoyable. There were many variations of puzzles and we were glad they mixed the level of difficulty from one puzzle to another. This way, we were able to take a breather in between. One puzzle in particular gave us a good laugh and because of this, you got our vote!
