Make it a family detective night

  1. Watch the Room Zero adventure together.
  2. Pause and predict: What do you think will happen? Which clues matter?
  3. Print the Real or AI? Detective Challenge.
  4. Discuss: What can we verify, and what needs more information?

These are two separate adventures, connected by the same skill: curious, careful thinking.

More adventures are on the way!
