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.

Really well thought out! Great!

I had a game from Mystery locks before and knew that I could rely on this being done well.

I did this for an ESL classroom at intermediate level as a treat.

Key points
- brilliant artwork / colour scheme (artistic colleagues were impressed).
- beautifully written puzzle descriptions good for target audience (if you’re an ESL teacher you’ll need to simplify).
- a group of them managed to finish in 90 mins and running through it myself as a test run it was challenging so I’d say “easy by the standards of some escape rooms but challenging” perhaps easy/medium not easy
- Cutting out the pieces is nightmare and took me over an hour. Get help to do this if you can. It’s worth it for a grateful group, but important to know you can’t just do it in 30min on your own.
- puzzle 4 I struggled with, my students got the process of how to get the answer but ended up needing the solution…so maybe a pic on the hints might help?
- I needed help to figure that puzzle out and the chat option with mystery locks staff was both efficient and incredibly helpful. Robert was kind, patient and explained well. Plus didn’t make me feel silly for my questions.

Overall, the failings of this were on me really. The time consuming aspect of cutting, was long but necessary for such a cool escape room (see pic for reference of how many envelopes) and me struggling to get a puzzle (and failing) is really part of the escape room experience.
