Designing a virtual escape room is for sure amusing but we know that is not easy.

According to the Interaction Design Foundation, the steps you need to follow when you have to design a game are the following (also not sequential, so you can carry them on in parallel and come back to them iteratevely):

• Empathise – with your users
• Define – your users’ needs, their problem, and your insights
• Ideate – by challenging assumptions and creating ideas for innovative solutions
• Prototype – to start creating solutions
• Test – solutions

Please, remember that you have to write your plot together with your mates and it is important that everybody helps and gives his/her own contribution. This activity is very important to develop many soft skills you can use in your future life.
