Online escape room questions.
Everything you might want to know about playing EscapeRoom.team with friends — players, duration, hosting, mobile, and pricing.
What is EscapeRoom.team?
EscapeRoom.team is an online escape room game that runs in your browser. You and your friends jump into a shared room, talk over built-in voice and video, and solve cooperative mystery puzzles together — no app, no setup, just share a code and start playing.
How many players can join one game?
Most scenarios are designed for 2 to 6 players, with some supporting up to 8. You can play solo if you want a slower, single-person mystery, but the puzzles are tuned for cooperative play with friends or family.
Do I need to download anything?
No download. Everything runs in a modern desktop or mobile browser. Audio and video chat are built into each room, so you don't need Zoom, Discord, or any extra app to play together.
How long does one game take?
Most scenarios run 45–60 minutes. Premium episodes like Perfect Alibi can take 2–3 hours if you take your time with the dialogue and evidence trees. Each scenario page lists its expected play time.
Can I play on mobile?
Yes. The game scenes, video chat, and puzzle interactions all work on phones and tablets. We recommend a tablet or laptop for the best view of the hand-illustrated rooms, but a phone is fine for joining a friend's session.
Is it kid-friendly?
Several scenarios are designed for ages 8+ and family play (Missing Mascot, Spaceship SOS). Each scenario lists its age rating on the detail page. Mystery and detective scenarios skew older but contain no violence or adult content.
What if someone disconnects mid-game?
Game progress is saved on the host's session. If someone drops, they can rejoin with the same room code and pick up where the team left off. Voice and video reconnect automatically.
How do I host a room?
Click "Create a room" from any scenario page or the home hero. You'll get a room code to share with friends. Once everyone joins, you can start the scenario whenever you're ready.
Can I replay the same scenario?
Yes. You can replay scenarios any number of times — the puzzles are deterministic, but the experience changes with different teammates. Some endings branch on the choices you make near the finale.
Do you have an escape room game with friends online for free?
Yes — every scenario is currently free to play during our beta. We're finalizing pricing and will continue to offer a free demo when paid passes launch.
Is EscapeRoom.team free?
Yes. While we're in beta, every scenario is free to host and play. We'll roll out optional 24-hour passes and lifetime unlocks later — and a free demo will always be available.
