Step into the magical world of Oz with The Great Oz Escape, a spellbinding scavenger hunt adventure filled with glam and games! Perfect for fans of Wicked, this DIY digital party pack turns your celebration into an immersive journey through friendship, mystery, and magic.
The story begins with a glamorous makeover in Glinda’s room —just before the kids discover that the Wizard is capturing stuffed animals and locking them in cages! To set things right, they must earn the witch’s trust and unlock clues by braving the poppy field (but beware the Zzz’s!), performing the Dance of Friendship, ringing the Emerald City bell, and reciting a powerful incantation from the Book of Spells to save the day.
