There are lots of great escape room-style puzzles over atCool Math Games, includingMust Escape The Wizards Castle. I didn’t find the early puzzles too tough, but after a few rooms, the whole game starts to open up and I found it hard to keep track of where things had been and what I still needed to do. If you’re having the same issue, check out our Must Escape The Wizards Castle walkthrough below.
How do I get out of the first room in Must Escape The Wizard’s Castle?
You find yourself stuck in a cell. Switch either left or right (to the screen with the door) and click the left-side hay pile to reveal a Stool—pick it up and go back to the opening screen. Select the Stool in your inventory and click the window to place it underneath. Now click the window again to get a Metal Bar.
