Take students on a Spanish culture escape room through the Spanish-speaking world. In this low-prep digital game for high school Spanish, students explore Peru, Mexico, Costa Rica, Argentina, and Chile by reading clues, watching videos, and finding codes to unlock each challenge.

Use this Spanish escape room to introduce a culture unit, review Spanish-speaking countries, enrich a geography lesson, or fill a planned or unexpected sub day. Students can play independently, with partners, or in teams.
