Hello and welcome to our AAPLD Eastgate Branch and Algonquin library-themed Digital Escape Room!
You can complete this escape room as a group or as individual. You can compete against friends and try it multiple times. Just make sure you have fun! You may also want to have a piece of paper and a pencil on hand to help you work out the clues. Those who escape will be entered into a drawing to receive a library-themed prize basket! Make sure to fill out all the blank at the end if you would like to be entered into the prize basket drawing!
If you are accessing this through a social media app, we recommend opening this escape room in a separate web browser so you don't lose progress when clicking on necessary links.
This escape experience was created by Jennifer Griffin, Eastgate Branch Librarian at Algonquin Area Public District (AAPLD) in Algonquin, IL.
