Drug Information Escape Room: Instructions

While on an expedition to the jungle in search of a rare plant rumored to have medicinal properties, you suddenly fall through a trapdoor, separating you from the rest of your group. When you search your surroundings, you discover an entryway covered in symbols. BOOM! You hear a loud clap of thunder. You realize that you need to get out quickly, because the underground ruins will begin to flood in heavy rain. To escape, you will need to decipher the symbols on the stone door so you can open it. 

Hurry, you don't have much time!

Before proceeding, open the link called "Keycode Entry Form" below. For each lock, view the clues on this site and when you have deciphered the keycode, enter it into the Keycode Entry Form. If you get the keycode correct, the form will proceed to the next lock.

When you complete the activity, take a screen shot of the final screen of the Keycode Entry Form and upload it to Blackboard as a record of your participation. If you do not finish the whole activity, upload a screen shot of whatever screen of the Keycode Entry Form you were on at the end of the allotted time.

[Note: The pictures used throughout the activity have no relation to the clues or keycodes - they are just for atmosphere!]
