EduScapes is a method of teaching teamwork and problem-solving in a playful environment that emphasis iterative design and learning through failure. Small teams of 3-5 students work together to design, create, and test a playable escape room. An escape room is a game form where groups of players work together in the same physical space over a restricted time period (usually an hour) to solve a variety of physical, mental and collaborative puzzles and achieve some overall objective (usually escaping the room).
