Diagnosis: Kidnapped escape game

Activity: Other activity types › Other

Description

Drug discovery can be considered as a series of puzzles to be solved. We took the popular format of the escape room and created a new game to allow people to immerse themselves in an imaginary scenario.

Participants must rebuild the research from a team of scientists who have been kidnapped. By solving the puzzles, they can help with the imaginary crime and gain an insight into the complexities of real world drug discovery.
