By Donna Wray

Five people are in a room with a hardened criminal holding them at gunpoint, with only an hour to escape. To do this, they must decipher a clue to figure out the code to open the lock on a mysterious box. They succeed! But only to find still more puzzling things inside the box.... If this sounds like fun to you, you have the right book!With this book, you can make your own Escape game that has the attractions of a professional game such as mysterious boxes, locks, and clues, with just a little shopping at your local stores. You can use the script and puzzles included to play 'Zuleika's Connection,' or you can create your own games from scratch. There are options within the Zuleika instructions to make it easier or harder, depending on the puzzle experience of the group who will be playing. The Zuleika game as written is for mature audiences, as it contains references to (pretend) drugs and (pretend) violence. It could be modified for younger children. By playing an Escape Room in your house, apartment, or dorm, you can invite who you want, serve food and drinks, and make sure the puzzles and clues are fun to your group. Change the rules, or provide hints, to allow for a great team building experience.A link provides materials to download and print. A shopping list can be completed at your local big box stores. If you include thrift shopping, you can budget less than $40 for a game that can be played multiple times. To put it together, you will need glue, scissors, and a love of puzzles.
