Escape games for the classroom

One mission. One team. Everything you've learned.

At Exit the Classroom knowledge is the key. Only those who understand get ahead. Teams race the clock and each other – the teacher sees where it gets stuck.

How it works

Learn first, then break out

01

Release the game

The teacher picks a game, sets the number of teams and shows the QR code. Nobody starts before that.

02

Teams scan and start

One device per team. Enter a team name and members, tap start – the clock is running.

03

Solve puzzles, watch the ranking

Ten puzzles, one after another. Wrong answers unlock hints, which cost points. In the end, accuracy beats speed.
