What you'll do

At CoLab you’ll meet with your cohort for two hours a week to take on immersive challenges that require you to think critically, work with others and solve problems!

These challenges range from escaping the dungeons of an enchanted castle to saving ancient temples from the floods of the Nile! In this series, you’ll be taking on two of CoLab’s finest challenges:

• Guardians of the Lumifox 🦊: On the mystical island of Virel, the Lumifoxes - radiant fox-like creatures that glow in the dark - play a vital role in maintaining the balance of Viral’s ecosystem. However, the Lumifox population is dwindling due to threats from external predators and human interference. Using your knowledge of the Lumifoxes and their habitats, you and your team must make a number of decisions in this "choose your own adventure" style game to save the Lumifoxes and restore the balance! 

• Galactic Gear Masters 🚀: In this immersive escape room, your spaceship has been damaged by an uncharted debris field and needs immediate repairs. As the team of Gear Master ground crew, you must work together to identify tools and allocate them to various tasks to repair the ship. Figure out a plan to find all of the tools as quickly as possible - the spaceship is counting on you!
