Digital Breakout

What is a Digital Breakout?

What is a breakout game?

Similar to escape rooms, breakouts challenge players to find and solve clues to open locks on a breakout box.

Some clues might be given to you or in an obvious place; they can also be hidden!
Clues usually open one lock (normally) but may be used to open multiple locks!
Clues can be almost anything - but usually something that seems "out of place"

What makes a Digital Breakout different?

Digital breakouts don't have a physical box to unlock. (My digital breakouts have a Google Form the player submits to "breakout" and they cannot submit incorrect answers)
Not all digital breakouts are timed (mine aren't!) but the game facilitator can add a timer if desired (usually physical ones are for 30-45 minutes)
Clues will be hidden on the site or location of the breakout - there is no need to search outside of the breakout (in fact you probably will get the wrong answer!)
Digital breakouts may not give an answer key - everyone is able to play!
