Escape Room: a BODMAS, algebra and word problems game for the 11+
Escape the library, the laboratory and the observatory, then crack the vault. Each right answer opens a lock at once: padlock wheels roll, drawers slide, lasers die and bolts shoot back.
Included in every Prep4All plan. Grand Prix is free to try first.

About Escape Room
Escape Room is a race through three locked rooms, the library, the laboratory and the observatory, and then the vault. A round is 13 locks with one question each, and each room leans on one topic: word problems, algebra or BODMAS. The vault’s four ring locks ask harder questions and go first to any topic still missing, so every round covers all three.
A wrong answer gets a ‘Denied’ stamp: the game explains the trap, then a spare key opens the lock so the escape carries on. The escape clock only sets a time bonus and never ends the game. Questions get harder after three right in a row and easier after two misses in a row, and the escape review at the end works through every trap.
How to play Escape Room
- Choose your level (Explorer, Investigator or Mastermind) and press Start the escape.
- Answer each question to open the lock in front of you; quick answers earn bonus points.
- Get three right in a row to win the master key, which doubles your points until a miss.
- Crack the vault’s four ring locks: harder questions for double points.
- Escape with time left on the clock for a time bonus; the clock never ends the game.
What it practises for the 11+
- BODMAS
- Working out calculations in the right order: brackets first, then powers, then division and multiplication, then addition and subtraction. For example, 2 + 3 × 4 is 14, not 20. Learn the topic →
- Algebra
- Using letters for unknown numbers: substituting values, solving equations, function machines and the nth term of a sequence. For example, if 3n + 2 = 20, then n = 6. Learn the topic →
- Word Problems
- Turning a story into the right calculation, often in two or three steps, with money, remainders and working backwards. For example, 50 pupils in minibuses that seat 12 need 5 minibuses, because 4 would leave 2 pupils behind. Learn the topic →
Try Escape Room questions
Questions from the game, for you to try together. Have a go before opening the answer.
Question 1 · BODMAS
Work out 58 − (8 + 10) ÷ 3
- 6
- 18
- 20
- 52
- 64
Show the answer
52 — Brackets: 8 + 10 = 18. Divide and multiply: 18 ÷ 3 = 6. Add and subtract: 58 − 6 = 52. The answer is 52.
Question 2 · Word Problems
Yusuf buys 3 mugs at £4 each and pays with a £50 note. Which calculation gives the change?
- 50 + 3 × 4
- 50 − 4
- (50 − 3) × 4
- 3 × 4
- 50 − 3 × 4
Show the answer
50 − 3 × 4 — Multiply first (the cost), then take it from 50: 50 − 3 × 4 = 38.
