Here’s something you wouldn’t usually associate with LEGO, Escape Rooms, to be more precise a whole book of how to build them!
The next LEGO book to be published by DK Books is called ‘Build Your Own LEGO Escape Room‘, as the title suggests it offers tips and shows you how to build your very own Escape Room, built entirely our of LEGO bricks.
It also includes over 50 LEGO pieces and a sticker sheet to get you started, along with puzzles and minibuilds for objects you’d find in an escape room.
There’s quite a lengthy wait for the DK Books publication as it’ll hit book stores in October. Check out the front cover below, and let us know your thoughts via the comments.

I bought this book, seeing that it came with 49 pieces, expecting those to be the pieces necessary to construct the 3 escape rooms that are in the book – with specific build instructions.
However, when I looked at the very first object to build for the space-themed room… I realized some (all?) of the pieces were not included with the book.
I spent the next hour trying to find a disclaimer somewhere in the book that indicated “not all parts included” and it doesn’t appear to be there. I was also looking for reviews online and couldn’t find anything (it’s only been out for a month).
I’m pretty disappointed that I was so misled into thinking that the pieces would be included. I don’t feel like I had a reason NOT to think that.
Why include ANY pieces at all, if your very specific builds refer to pieces that aren’t included?
I’ll probably be returning this.
Hi Russell, having looked at our original article and their official Amazon listing we can confirm you don’t get enough bits to build a room, you get parts to get you started, bits you’d find in an escape room etc.
“Includes 45+ useful LEGO pieces and a sticker sheet for getting started.”
