Escape the Lost Colony

Play completely online… Not a part of the subscription.

We have digitized our FIFTH Game!

You have found yourself stranded back in time in the infamous “Lost Colony of Roanoke.” Your time machine pocket watch has broken, and you have no choice but to search the colony for the missing pieces. In the process, however, you can begin to see that something odd has happened here. The entire colony is deserted. The hearths are still warm, food has been left on the tables, but every person has vanished into thin air. The only clues as to what happened are locked up and there is an odd message carved into a tree nearby reading “CROATOAN.” It is up to you to unravel what happened here and repair your time machine in time. Spend too long and you might become yet another ghost in the Lost Colony.

This is a “re-imagining” of our fifth box in the subscription, which was released in October / November of 2017. If you have played this box, many of the puzzles in this game will be the same, though we have added a few surprises. Since the physical game of “Escape the Lost Colony” was permanently retired in July of 2021, this digital game will offer new fans of Escape the Crate a chance to start the game from the very beginning.
