Phone Wallpaper

Everyone has old phones lying around in their homes. Instead of just letting these collect dust, consider using them in an easy escape room game. Provide a clue as to what the password or pattern is so that the players can unlock the device. Put clues in phone such as on the wallpaper or the gallery of pictures. It’s a great place to put a map or another clue that will lead to another part of the room.

Hidden Message

You could get a blank piece of white paper and write down a hidden message. There are several ways to do this. One is to use sugar water or lemon juice and a brush. When heated, the message will become clearer. Another way is to use a white crayon in writing the message. White on white will be difficult to read but the application of watercolor will make it more visible. The paper will absorb the paint except for the parts with crayon strokes.

Pop Balloons

If you are going to create the DIY escape room for a party, then you will probably have a lot of balloons lying around. Consider placing clues inside some of them. Hang these around the space in such a way that would make it obvious that they are part of the game. Players will have to pop them to see the hidden clues such as numbers, letters, or items that will provide the solution to another puzzle.

Locks and Keys

Locks are quite handy for these easy escape room. You can use ones that require a number combination or those that need keys. You might lock the finger holes of a scissor which means that players will have to find a way to unlock this before they can use the item. Keys are small and flat so it is quite easy to hide them behind wall art, under desks, inside pockets, and other locations.
