Lyra and the Lost Explorer: Escape Room
Lyra and the Lost Explorer: Escape Room
Bring science to life with this fully illustrated, story-driven escape room adventure!
When famous naturalist Carl Linnaeus disappears while searching for a mysterious animal, pupils must join explorer Lyra on an unforgettable expedition across four unique environments to uncover what happened.
Traversing through the Jungle, Ocean, Desert and Arctic, children solve engaging classification puzzles, examine scientific evidence and eliminate possibilities before uncovering the identity of one of nature’s most unusual animals.
Unlike traditional escape rooms, this adventure focuses on scientific thinking rather than simply answering questions. Pupils gather clues, analyse evidence, identify misconceptions and make deductions just like real scientists.
