Inside the case file

Grab a metal detector and hunt for gold buried in the sand — this Scientific Method Digital Escape Room turns a science review into a beach treasure hunt against the clock. Students answer questions about the scientific method, and every correct answer uncovers a hidden gold coin and moves them closer to escaping.

It's fully interactive and self-checking, so a wrong answer never opens the lock — engagement up, grading down. Built for Grades 6–9 science and ready to play in any browser.
