Breakout Rooms
Currently, you can break your meeting participants up into teams to compete against each other when playing Escape Rooms. If you are hosting, you can assign users to teams (or click 'Auto-Assign' to randomly mix them up). People in a team automatically get moved to the breakout Rooms.
