What's in the free printable escape room game?
The free printable escape room game has three pages: a story with a numbered note, a decoder, and a host page. The host page holds the prep, how to play, two hints and the answer. All three pages are shown here in full. This sample is the one file we give away.



Play the first puzzle right here
The guests are on their way. The table is set. But the invitation with the secret party word has vanished. All that is left is a note from the mysterious host.
2 / 15 / 15 / 11
Every number has a letter. A is 1. B is 2. Find the word. Then look inside one.
Use the decoder on page 2 of the PDF, or write the alphabet out with a number under each letter. The answer is on the host page, page 3.
A decoder escape room puzzle for any age
The players get a note full of numbers and a decoder that turns each number into a letter. The word they spell tells them where the invitation is hiding. For younger children, the host page suggests reading the note together and matching the letters side by side.
Yes, the free printable escape room PDF comes with answers
Page 3 is for the host only: a little prep (write a short note and hide it inside a book), how to play, two hints for a stuck group, and the answer. Keep it aside before the players begin.
A mini escape room game, then the full ones
The sample is one puzzle. The full games are a whole party: a story told across envelopes, puzzles of many kinds, a host guide with graded hints for every step, and a finale where something opens. They cost $12.99 each, or $49.99 for all seven.
How to play the free sample in three steps
The Missing Invitation plays in three steps. Print pages 1 and 2 in black and white, follow the short prep on page 3 and keep that page aside. Then read page 1 aloud, hand over the decoder and let everyone work on the note together. There is no timer and nothing to cut.
