Eight connected, printable physics investigations for grades 9–12.
Student teams rotate through five evidence stations per case, solve calculations and physics-reasoning tasks, record findings in one response set, and submit a Final Accusation. Low-prep, print-and-play review for in-person classrooms.
All eight cases share one storyline — The Nullifier Conspiracy — and the finale unmasks "V."
The Eight Cases
- Case 1: The Motion Incident — velocity vs. speed, motion graphs, and kinematics misconceptions
- Case 2: The Newton Case Files — force types, Newton's laws, free-body diagrams, and equilibrium
- Case 3: The Collision Conspiracy — momentum, impulse, collisions, and conservation of momentum
- Case 4: The Orbital Heist — gravity, orbital mechanics, and mass vs. weight
- Case 5: The Static Storm — Coulomb's law, charge behavior, and charging methods
- Case 6: The Energy Heist — kinetic and gravitational potential energy, work, and conservation of energy
- Case 7: The Circuit Breaker — Ohm's law and series, parallel, and combination circuits
- Case 8: The Final Frequency — wave properties, the electromagnetic spectrum, and the Doppler effect
Every Case Includes
- Read Me First with setup, printing, and station placement guidance
- Complete Teacher Guide — 21 pages with read-aloud scripts, timing options, tiered hints, worked answer keys, rubrics, and debrief prompts
- Spoiler-free Student Briefing
- Five posted Station Cards
- Student Worksheets response set
- Separate Teacher Reveal — culprits and keys live in teacher-only files, so nothing is spoiled in the student packet
Format
48 print-ready PDF files — 337 total pages. 40 printable evidence stations spanning mechanics, electricity, energy, and waves.
- US Letter, ready to print at 100% / Actual Size
- No tech, no logins, and no locks or escape-room hardware to buy
- No Google Slides, editable files, or interactive digital version are included
Classroom Use
- Use each case after its matching unit, combine cases for semester review, or run the full sequence across the year
- Choose a 35, 45, or 55-minute format per case
- Allow about 15 minutes to print and post materials
- Teams of two to four students, with calculators and pencils

All 8 escape rooms in this collection are already included in PLUS and MEGA. PLUS pairs them with the full-year CORE curriculum; MEGA also adds the separate 22-lab collection. If you own PLUS or MEGA, you do not need this escape-room bundle separately.
How our resources align to NGSS. Every Phantastic Physics resource is built for the NGSS high school physical science performance expectations. The specific standard each resource targets is listed in its product description. The reference below shows how our eight units map to the standards.
Unit 1 — Motion
The NGSS high school standards contain no stand-alone kinematics performance expectation. Our Motion unit builds the graphing, data-analysis, and mathematical-representation skills students need for HS-PS2-1 and the other force and motion standards.
Unit 2 — Forces
HS-PS2-1 — Analyze data to support the claim that Newton's second law of motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration.
Unit 3 — Momentum
HS-PS2-2 — Use mathematical representations to support the claim that the total momentum of a system of objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.
HS-PS2-3 — Apply scientific and engineering ideas to design, evaluate, and refine a device that minimizes the force on a macroscopic object during a collision.
Unit 4 — Gravity
HS-PS2-4 — Use mathematical representations of Newton's Law of Gravitation and Coulomb's Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects.
HS-ESS1-4 — Use mathematical or computational representations to predict the motion of orbiting objects in the solar system.
Unit 5 — Static Electricity
HS-PS2-4 — Use mathematical representations of Newton's Law of Gravitation and Coulomb's Law to describe and predict the gravitational and electrostatic forces between objects.
HS-PS3-5 — Develop and use a model of two objects interacting through electric or magnetic fields to illustrate the forces between objects and the changes in energy of the objects due to the interaction.
Unit 6 — Energy
HS-PS3-1 — Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known.
HS-PS3-2 — Develop and use models to illustrate that energy at the macroscopic scale can be accounted for as a combination of energy associated with the motion of particles (objects) and energy associated with the relative position of particles (objects).
HS-PS3-3 — Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy.
Unit 7 — Electric Circuits
HS-PS3-1 — Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known.
HS-PS3-3 — Design, build, and refine a device that works within given constraints to convert one form of energy into another form of energy.
Unit 8 — Waves
HS-PS4-1 — Use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.
HS-PS4-3 — Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other.
HS-PS4-5 — Communicate technical information about how some technological devices use the principles of wave behavior and wave interactions with matter to transmit and capture information and energy.
