World-renowned quantum physicist Professor S. desperately needs your help.

A terrible virus could be the end of life as we know it.

Quantum tech is humanity's only hope…

World-renowned quantum physicist Professor Alberta Pauline Schrödenberg is quarantining and desperately needs your help — the fate and security of the entire world hang in the balance, as you race to run the world’s first distributed quantum algorithm! You'll have to search her lab, solve mind-blowing puzzles to reveal clues, and hopefully find a way to complete your mission - saving us all! As featured in The New York Times, this APS- and NSF-funded outreach project is, we believe, the world’s first science-based 'escape-room', in which all the puzzles involve various physics phenomena. Our goal is to show that science can be useful and accessible (no prior background is assumed), as well as beautiful and fun!

We've now run nearly 15,000 Agents through, including ~1500 scientists (at various APS and Physics conferences since 2018, but this will be our first time at CLEO!)—come see for yourself why LabEscape has 98% 5-star ratings, was described as "hands down the best escape room I've ever done!", and 'sold out' at the 2019, 2024 and 2025 APS annual meetings!
