Reflective Essay On Escape Room

Entrepreneurship is the activity of setting up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit. In our grade 9/10 Entrepreneurship Class we created an escape room (an escape room is a physical adventure game in which players solve a series of puzzles. Players are given a set time limit to solve all the puzzles to escape the room.) But before we were ready to make money we had to Research, Design, and build the escape room. I was in charge of the Marketing side of the escape room, my job duties included: Making our presence known on Social media (Ex.

With that mind I would say my score should a seventy-five out of one-hundred.
