Escape game: The Fireflies' Forest

What you get

• The printable kit: the story, 5 puzzles (the fox's footprints, the stag's constellation, the hedgehog's mushrooms, the owl's song, the overlay map) and 15 hint cards
• The game master's guide: preparation, running the game, explained solutions, easier variations for younger players
• The spring page, which opens on a phone or computer, no internet needed: type the magic words to wake the forest
• Print on A4, in colour if you can (in black and white, letters stand in for the colours)
• Print it as many times as you like for your own games

Who is it for?

For a family evening, a birthday, a class or a club: 2 to 6 players, ages 10 and up, 45 minutes to an hour. No prior knowledge needed: everything is solved by looking, counting and searching together.

How to print

Print at home on A4, single-sided, at 100% (“Fit” on US Letter). 13 pages, 3 of them blank on purpose; colour helps on pages 3 and 5.

How do I print the kits?

On a home printer, on A4, single-sided and at 100% (actual size, not “fit to page”); on US Letter paper, choose “Fit”. Use the same setting for every page. Many printers switch to double-sided on their own: check that setting before you print. Just in case, the pieces to cut out or lay on top of each other have a blank page on the back; when printing single-sided you can skip those pages (their numbers are on the kit's cover). Colour looks nicer, but every puzzle works in black and white. The cover is optional. You can reprint the kit as many times as you like for your own games.

Which language?

Everything is in English (British spelling): the printable kit, the game master's guide and the spring page. The same adventure also exists in French.
