Now let’s take a look at the actual 2025 Youth Theme Digital Escape Room!
1. Introduction Page
Once you’ve accessed the 2025 Youth Theme Digital Escape Room, you’ll be automatically led to this page. To start, simply click the button that says, “Click here to begin”.
There are many ways you could do the escape room, but the best way we’ve found it by doing it as one big team, working together. Separate teams could work, but ideally not in the same room. Splitting up large groups of youth into smaller groups in separate rooms would also work great!
We recommend leaders and parents play with their own families or with their spouses (easy date night!), just so you know how it works before the day of the activity.
2. Puzzle 1 – Colors
In order to progress on through the Digital Escape Room, the youth will need to solve different puzzles, riddles, or questions.
There are hidden numbers in this puzzle. Follow the colors to know which order these numbers should be put in when inputting the answer.
3. Puzzle 2 – Word Find
Find the hidden message within the letters.
Once you’ve got it, click the button below and input your answer!
4. Puzzle 3 – Correct Lyric
We wanted to find ways to incorporate the new 2025 Youth Theme Music, and this puzzle is one of those! The words are jumbled but could easily be set straight when you click on the volume icon. You’ll be redirected to one of the songs from the new album and will have to listen closely to hear the decoded lyrics.
5. Puzzle 4 – Phrase Unscramble
For this puzzle, you’ll need to unscramble the letters to find the hidden phrase.
Click the button below to put in your answer! Remember, answers are in all lowercase with no spacing.
6. Puzzle 5 – Group Discussion Questions
During this section, it’s important to give the youth as much time as they need to answer these questions and truly ponder. This is a great opportunity for them to really reflect on the new 2025 Youth Theme.
The group discussion questions included are:
- What does it mean to you personally to “look unto [Christ] in every thought”?
- Can you think of a time when you overcame fear or doubt by focusing on the Savior? What happened?
- What are some thoughts or feelings that make it hard to “doubt not” and “fear not”? How can you replace those thoughts with faith?
The “next” button on the bottom will automatically redirect to the next puzzle/slide, so there’s no place to input the youth’s answers and no answer to solve for.
7. Puzzle 6 – Cryptogram
To solve cryptograms, the youth will need to first figure out which letter each number represents. They’ll need to test out different letters to then see which words could be made out until all the numbers are filled out.
This specific quote is from Milton Camargo’s talk, “Focus on Jesus Christ”.
8. Puzzle 7 – Lyric Acronyms
This puzzle is based on the 2025 Youth Theme Album song, “Doubt Not”. The red letters make out the phrase the youth will have to write out when they input their answer.
To hear the song and make sense of the letters, click on the volume button. For an even easier way to get the answer, download the lyrics to “Doubt Not”.
9. Puzzle 8 – Crossword
This crossword puzzle can easily be solved using the quote from Sister Andrea Munoz Spannaus’s talk, “Faithful to the End”.
The youth will then put the answer in all lowercase and with no spacing in the page the pops up after clicking the “input answer” button.
10. Puzzle 9 – Rebus Puzzles
In this puzzle, the youth will have to guess which hymn each square is based on the pictures and words inside.
