Escape: the last coffee

A locked office, a sequence of locks and enough information to move forward: this small escape room is about reasoning. Solve the tasks in order. The story connects codes and calculations; no hidden button or external website is needed to open a lock.

Play immediately as a guest. A name is only needed to save scores.

How it works

Enter the solution for the current lock. Only a correct answer opens the next step. A wrong answer leaves the same task in place. Hints and paper calculations are allowed. Closing the round means a new start begins again; intermediate progress is not synchronised between devices.

Worked example

A practice lock says: “The right digit is 2 greater than the left; together they total 10.” Call the left digit x. Then 2x + 2 = 10. The left is 4 and the right is 6, so the code is 46. The order is part of the answer, not just the two digits.

A useful approach

Easy has three short locks. Medium has four archive locks and hard has five with longer calculations. Check whether the task asks for minutes, euros, a fraction or a code. The right interpretation, rather than the longest calculation, moves you forward.
