There are teacher instructions and hints/explanations about how to solve the puzzles in case your students need some help. I have updated some parts to have easier versions for middle school students!

This digital escape room uses a Google Form™, a Google Slide™ and and Google Docs™.  Parts of the “clues” can be printed if you choose, but the locks must be “opened” virtually via Google Forms™.
