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 90 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.

I loved this, I was so happy to find it. I have been ordering escape room games for awhile but this was awesome to be able to print one and put my own spin on it. Love, Love, Loved it.

Had my mother in law over for supper and we played this after. She stayed till 10pm! It was fun and we threw about theories of whodunit. Only thing I have to say, is that after finally figuring out the solution a half day later, we feel it needed a little more to lead you to the answer. Maybe also the option to see the solution, as we were at it for some time and just wanted the result, since we couldn't solve it. Other than that, excellent story line and the graphics for the evidence is amazing. We had no problem "forgetting " the world around us and becoming investigators. So fun! We plan on continuing to purchase, and I can't wait to introduce this on my staff day, to my co workers.

This is pretty good! I found the print outs clear, easy to print and set up. I did manage to figure it out but it took me quite some time. I think it was definitely challenging. Good value for money. 🙂

Not the best.

The game sets up a really promising murder mystery with an intriguing premise and strong visuals, but the story quickly falls apart. The mystery is full of leaps in logic, and by the end, one of the main mysteries isn’t even given a clear resolution. It feels unfinished and frustrating rather than satisfying. Despite the good presentation, the resolution drags the whole experience down. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Thank you for the thoughtful review and for calling out what worked visually, Lauren! We’re sorry the resolution felt unsatisfying. In Murder at the Crimson Asylum, the story threads are intentionally tied to small visual details and cross-references on the evidence. If even one of those gets missed, the ending can feel like a leap instead of a deduction.

We’re reviewing the narrative signposting to make those connections clearer in future updates, and we appreciate your feedback in that process. If you’d like, we can send a step-by-step walkthrough that shows exactly how each clue links to the final solution—or recommend a different title that suits your play style better.

Thoroughly disappointed in this game! For $20, the graphics are great but not worth it. The game was very confusing, and the solution is impossible to get. Was expecting a better experience for the money...

Jan 2025: Bought this as a gift, printed it on nice paper, cut it out, had tons of fun trying to figure stuff out, but we couldn't 100% figure it out. After trying all the hints, we realized that we did get all the intel we should need. When reading the conclusion, it unfortunately jumped to conclusions, but mainly did not answer one of the biggest questions for solving the mystery/murder. This was very dissapointing...

I haven't finished playing the game, but so far so good. I'm enjoying it.

It was a lovely experience but the ending let us all down, the resolution for the game felt like it was put in last minute, it really didn't make sense , the evidence leading to what the solution was, was minimal and with no background.

Bought this for my son's 20th birthday party (Covid - party...Just the 4 of us). This was a new experience for us...and I was worried my college age son and his friends would not like it...But, we had a blast. The boys took a deep dive into the story. The story took a shift and we had huge debates over "who dunnit". We were all surprised at the ending. Great game. Great Fun. Great gift!!! Will definitely buy again!

We played this as a family for my son's 22nd birthday. We had a wonderful time solving this mystery. It was very easy to print, and the set up was very simple. The game was intriguing and kept us wondering for a time. In the end, we prevailed. I was unsure if this might be too easy for our mostly adult group, but it was perfect. A super fun way to spend time with the family.

Able to print immediately which is great. You need quite a good printer to get the most out of this, and we ended up fiddling around with our printer for a while before it printed well but aside from that, really good fun, really well made and isn't completely impossible to figure out but you really need to think and notice things to figure it out. Absolutely worth every single penny!

Alvina E. (United States)

Very fun time with friends! It was challenging without being impossible and took us about an hour to complete. Cutting everything out doesn't take long and is a great last minute party idea!

Such good quality pictures, clues, and storytelling! I printed everything out and hid all of the evidence to make it like a scavenger hunt! It was an instant hit and everyone loved it! The game definitely elevated my 21st birthday experience! Would purchase again! It was very immersive!

I hate to leave a poor review, but I thought this was terrible. There were typos galore, the story didn't make a lot of sense and lacked context, and my friend and I ultimately got bored and decided not to continue. An utter waste of time and money.

On top of that, I didn't opt into any emails that I'm aware of, but I started getting emails from this company and they were even in English. Very strange.
