Key Features
- Attend a Tea ‘N Tea Party – Can you defuse the bomb before your tranquil cup of tea gets cold? Your grade (and physical well being) depend on it!
- Hack the Professor – Solve a quantifiably feverish series of challenges to prove to the Academy’s super A.I. that you’ve got the skills to become an Escapist.
- Go for the Gold – Represent your class in everyone’s favorite sporting event, The Rival Room. Go toe-to-toe against your nemesis in a puzzle-race to prove who’s top of the class.
- Do Not Drown! – Being at the bottom of a puzzle-tower that’s rapidly filling with water is NOT ideal. Scramble to the top for that sweet, sweet oxygen.
- Spray Paint the Monument – Art class is no Easy-A at the Academy. Leave your mark on the historic Monument of Escape but uh… hurry up! The Headmaster didn’t exactly approve the lesson plan.

The game will be available digitally on the Switch eShop for $29.99.
