Welcome to The Blackwood School. Your students have been invited to apply, but first, they must pass the ultimate Entrance Exam. This isn't a paper-and-pencil test—it’s a series of locked rooms and cryptic puzzles. Do they have the mathematical grit to escape?

Product Overview

This is a 2D point-and-click escape room built in Unity. Designed specifically for 5th and 6th-grade students, it blends immersive storytelling with rigorous word problem-solving. Whether used as a reward, a sub plan, or a team-building exercise, your students will be too engaged to realize they’re doing math!

IF BLOCKED, SITE MUST BE WHITELISTED BY SCHOOL DISTRICT TO RUN. If you want to see if the site will work at your school, the website is https://www.sageowlgames.com
