We used this escape room for a 10th birthday party. The escape room was easy to put together. You can keep it simple or add in your own flair with decor. Participants ranged in age from children to adults. We had two teams working in two different rooms. Everyone had a great time and felt like it had enough challenge to be fun, but not so much that it was frustrating. Both teams finished within an hour. As mentioned by others, the chess puzzle might be a challenge if you have participants who don't know much about chess. It wasn't a problem for our gorup though.

Printed this and brought it to the beach for a fun activity. We modified it a little and ended the entire escape by leading the kids to an "x" marked in the sand. They dug deep and found buried treasure! Was really fun!

Great graphics and great to have a 3D groove from a pdf - just allow time for assembly and have scissors and glue stick on the ready. I did have a glitch with delivery. The Etsy download is a message that the actual pdfs will be emailed. I did not receive these (customer service theory is it was blocked by a company level filter). My initial customer inquiry was missed. With persistence, the company was super helpful and we made everything work.
