This is a simplified “escape room” to challenge your shape knowledge (and general visual awareness and logical thinking).
It contains 10 simple puzzles that let you see shapes in a slightly different way each time. The solution of each puzzle is a “jigsaw piece”. A part of a larger image/puzzle that’s shaped like a puzzle piece. Once you’ve solved all puzzles, and combine the pieces gained, a recognizable image should come out and prove you did it right!
We know that “escape room for 4-year-olds” sounds insane. But we knew this could be done, and we think we’ve found ways to do it. The puzzles in this escape room are still puzzles, but they’re absolutely simple enough (and completely textless, of course) that young kids can understand and solve them. Moreover, the solutions are completely visual too, creating a bigger image as a reward. And if it’s too hard? Too long? You can play only some of the puzzles, by just giving the “pieces” of the unplayed puzzles right from the start!
We hope this is will be a great “first escape room” for many Apprentices.
