Nothing seems more desirable than an escape from this whole thing. But since we can't just yet, the next best thing is finding your way out of an escape room. If you successfully complete it, you feel like you have some sense of control amidst chaos. If not, you're still guaranteed out of the room. The stakes are fun and low.

They key is critical thinking skills, so if you're lacking, make sure your party has at least on smarty pants in it.
