- BirthdaySurpriseEscapeRoom_Printable.html — clue cards + answer key + certificate (print or save as PDF)
- Instructions.html — full setup guide for both versions
What you can import
- Third entry in the "escape room" product line (after Christmas and New Year's Eve). Reuses the same proven format and code structure.
- EVERGREEN — not seasonal, so unlike the other two it can be listed and promoted any time, with no deadline pressure. Good candidate to list first/fastest since there's no seasonal rush.
- Same $5.99 pilot price to keep the line consistent; revisit pricing once all three products have ~2 weeks of traffic data.
- With 3 escape rooms now built, next natural step (per plan from 30 oct session) is bundling them as a "Escape Room Collection" — 3-in-1 listing at a discount vs. buying separately.
- Needs: Etsy photos (card-style, matching current DeskLark photo style) + a short demo video/GIF of the digital version unlocking a room, before listing.
