Why we're obsessed with DIY Escape Rooms

We started making escape rooms for each other to play at home, and now we've designed over 100!

Before MysteryLocks was even an idea, we discovered escape room games in all possible formats. When we ran out of games to play, we started creating our own.

Solving escape room puzzles using things we found around the house, we had hours of fun! So we want you to feel the same thrill without leaving your home.

Have Questions?
We Have Answers.

Creating an escape room at home sounds too good to be true.

Got another question?
Click on the Live chat or write us at contact@mysterylocks.com.

I never played a real Escape Room. Will I be able to play?

You don't need any prior experience to play an escape room at home.

Each game includes instructions and answer sheets, as well as an intuitive gameplay.

Do I need a game master to supervise the game?

All of our games have an intuitive, linear gameplay.

No master is needed to guide the game.

I have a large group I want to prepare the game for. How many can play the game at once?

What we love about our games is the versatility.

Have a large group? Split it into small teams (we suggest up to five, but it's totally up to you).

Print a set of materials for each group, and you're good to go!

If I set up the game, will it spoil the game for me?

Setting up the game does not spoil the game in any way!

Feel free to join the game, as you're in for some great fun!

I have locks, chests, and props on hand. Can I integrate them into the experience?

Adding extra layers of complexity is always a nice touch!

All our games allow adding props, numeric locks and chests.

But as all our games are designed to be self-contained, you don't need any additional props or equipment to play.

But if you have them, you can certainly use them to make the game more fun and exciting!

Do I need to use card stock for printing?

All our games are designed for regular printing paper.

Want to go the extra mile to create a higher quality experience? Printing on card stock definitely offer the games a great look and feel!

How do I download the game?

Right on the order completion page you receive the download links for the files instantly.

To keep them safe, a copy of the download links is also delivered to your email.

Does the game end after 60 minutes?

Unlike real-life escape rooms, printable escape rooms are not time-limited.

You can take as long as you need to complete the game.

This means you can play at your own pace, take breaks if you need to, and come back to the game whenever you're ready.

Other stores do not offer refunds for digital items. What if I don't like the game?

We're confident we provide some of the most complex games you can get online.

Maybe your first try was not successful? We offer a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee that includes a free personalised replacement or full refund.

Great for kids!

The hunt went really well! My kids are 7, 9, and 12, and the level was just about perfect for them with the exception of a couple *really* easy ones. We gave the super easies to my 7 year old, and she was fine with it but one of them was truly too easy, maybe more appropriate for a child just learning to read (to solve the clue you just had to be able to read in a spiral). Otherwise, it was fun and good quality!
Looking forward to trying some of the higher level games and playing with adults!

Easy to use, a fun addition to the Christmas Gift Ritual

I wanted to make the finding of the big gift more fun on Xmas morning for my 17 year olds. This was just the thing! It cost me a printer cartridge since I had to print it at home Christmas eve when I got this squirrely idea, but I got the download immediately. We love scavenger hunts, and some of the clues were easy, some of them took more time, but you can adapt all of that depending on the age and interest of the audience by selecting which clues to use. My kids really enjoyed it. I think even an adult audience would enjoy it, as the codes/puzzles were of moderate difficulty. It slows down the mad rush to open gifts, and gave me time to cook brunch while everyone still had fun. I'd say it took 40 minutes to complete for my crew. Worth it!

Fun way to make money gifts more enjoyable

There was a mistake on the. Chapter ten I think, the snowflakes part, it had to do with the snowflake shapes and the number. That messed things up.

Other than that, it was easy to set up. Worked well for a group of 8, we could split the chapter challenges up to smaller groups them come together at the end. It's easy to add in additional challenges like lock boxes, and ways to earn prizes throughout. We added the main number at the end to unlock a safe where the money was. I also added a craft that they had to do (make 7 mini snowman for the days of week in 5 mins). It would be fun to hide the chapters around the house too, but since I had 7 kids at their grandparents we were avoiding them terrorizing their home.

We had a group of 7 kids, ages 10-13. The challenges were a bit harder than we expected but perfect for the group. Most they could figure out after they slowed down and thought about it. Easier ones were given to the younger ones so everyone had a challenge to do themselves or in a pair that worked for them. This is a fun event for kids that will definitely become a new tradition.

I purchased the Christmas Scavenger Hunt for my son and his girlfriend who are 22 & 23yrs old. The clues lead them to a treasure box filled with cash and candy on Christmas morning. It took them around 20mins to figure out all of the clues. They had a ton of fun and I loved watching them work together to solve the riddles and figure out the clues. Easy set up, printed the pdf, cut out the sheets and hid the clues.

Awful

The clues were not good to reveal a final grand prize. The company's email was not deliverable. Do not purchase!

Thanks for the feedback, Stefanie! We're so sorry to know you did not enjoy it! And our email contact@mysterylocks.com and Live Chat are always open. :)

Very fun scavenger hunt. My granddaughter is 8 and really looking forward to this. I believe the puzzles are age appropriate plus her parents will be here to assist her. I like that everything is set up and needs little preparation on my part. I am going to combine this game with the Christmas Escape Room so the adults will have something fun as well. Always fun and clever. I do prefer the brighter colors over the darker ones
