Most people know what phishing is. But few know how it feels to fall for it. Cybersecurity awareness can’t just be theoretical. That’s why Cyber Crime Game transforms it into an immersive, gamified escape room — where your employees don’t just learn about threats, they experience them. Inside this browser-based simulation, players must think like attackers to solve real-world challenges. From phishing and deepfakes to tailgating and CEO fraud, they uncover how small decisions lead to big consequences.
Traditional training tells people what not to do. This game shows them why. By simulating social engineering attacks from the inside out, the cybersecurity awareness escape room:
This escape room is based on Cyber Crime Game’s proven scenario engine. Participants navigate gamified missions that mirror the tactics of real attackers:
Browser-based, modular and multilingual. Designed for remote, hybrid and onsite teams. Fully aligned with NIS2 awareness requirements. Backed by behavior analytics and learning reports.
From finance to healthcare, from public sector to startups — every team deserves a challenge that activates their thinking and tests their reflexes. Cyber Crime Game is perfect for:
Whether as a kick-off, team-builder or awareness anchor, this escape room makes cybersecurity real through the power of serious gaming.
It’s an immersive, gamified learning experience where participants must solve realistic cyber challenges—like phishing, deepfakes, password traps, and incident reporting—to “escape.” It’s engaging, hands-on, and behavior-focused.
Absolutely! Play together in one or multiple rooms, face off against each other, and enjoy guaranteed fun—while boosting cybersecurity awareness for everyone.
Cybersecurity gamification is the use of game-based mechanics—like levels, storytelling, challenges, and scoring—to teach people how to recognize and respond to cyber threats. Instead of passively reading or watching, participants become active players in a scenario that mirrors real-life attacks. Whether it’s simulating a phishing attempt, investigating OSINT data, or unlocking achievements through strong decisions, gamification turns awareness into an immersive experience.
The goal? To make learning about cybersecurity not only effective—but engaging, memorable, and even fun.
Because people don’t learn best by being told—they learn best by doing. Gamification taps into how we naturally absorb knowledge: through curiosity, exploration, and immediate feedback. It transforms passive instruction into active participation, which leads to better retention, higher engagement, and deeper understanding.
Plus, the emotional impact of a well-crafted game—feeling tricked by a fake CEO email, or catching a colleague’s weak password—sticks far longer than a slide or policy ever will. That’s why gamification doesn’t just inform—it changes behavior.
