How to use the Virtual Escape Room

The Virtual Escape Rooms are intended to be self-service and can be used for an individual activity, a small group activity (2-10 people) or for larger groups, including radiology interest groups.  Players may participate to get individual scores or as a team. The Escape Room contains a built-in timer so individuals or groups may compete for the best time. There are also built-in hints if needed.

Three Ways to Play

As an individual, select and launch the Escape Room from the options below.  See how well you do!

As a small group, gather either in person or via online video, Zoom, etc. Pick one of the Escape Rooms available below. Players may each launch the Escape Room to get individual scores to compete against each other or play as a team. For team play, have one player launch the Escape Room and share their screen. Try to escape the room before the time runs out!

For larger groups, select and launch the Escape room from the options below. Gather virtually via Zoom or other online collaboration platform making use of breakout rooms to split into smaller teams (max of 10 per team works best). One team member from each breakout group would launch the Escape Room and share their screen. A large group facilitator’s guide is available to walk through the process.

Prepare for the experience:

  • Gather some paper and pencil to help with puzzles.
  • Don’t cheat! No internet surfing, calculators, or other electronic helpers.
  • Select a Team Name if playing as a team.

Case of the Missing Radiologist (Virtual Escape Room)


Storyline: Dr. Pickalock is missing – can you determine her whereabouts?

This escape room provides some basic radiology-based puzzles especially suited for medical students with an interest or to encourage an interest in radiology.

Two levels of the experience are available:

Level 1 for medical students with little to no radiology experience (no radiology knowledge needed to solve the puzzles, all radiology-based puzzles have information provided).

Level 2 for radiology residents or those with basic radiology concepts and knowledge of radiology.
