We had a webinar on how to create a digital escape room game. We explained in detail how to build a digital escape room game using the ThingLink platform.
ThingLink provides an interactive learning environment, and recently added new features such as AI-assisted generation, augmented reality, and mixed reality headsets. The webinar showed how to use these features to create an immersive escape room game.
Creating an escape room game requires thorough planning. It is important to create a planning document that includes the game's theme, learning objectives, target group, format, time limit, structure type, etc. You can use ThingLink's 'Guided Mode' and 'Locked Mode' to guide the learning, and use conditional transition tags to set up the next step only when the correct answer to a specific question is entered.
You can also use a variety of third-party tools to create puzzles and quizzes and embed them in ThingLink to enrich the learning experience. Use Google Forms to assess learning outcomes and encourage students to work together to solve problems.
Digital escape games are effective in increasing students’ learning motivation and improving their problem-solving and collaboration skills. Create your own digital escape game using ThingLink and a variety of tools.
