I love escape rooms, but sometimes it’s hard to get your friends together to do a physical escape room. Luckily, there are tons of escape room board games that you can play at home when you’re wanting to do something similar to an escape room! Here are some of the ones I’ve played, broken out by category based on what you like in an escape room: puzzles, story, immersion, physical locks, and family fun.
