A fun game

We enjoyed playing this escape room in a box game.

Don't start here, but do start!

We've now done 5 of these (Castle, island, catacombs, lab & finally this one) so are fully in the swing of how these work. Playing with our 3 kids (11, 13, 19) on a Sunday afternoon with snacks has become a really nice routine.This was our favourite so far, everything seemed to fall into place & it takes a slightly different angle with the solution compared to the others (I agree with a prev reviewer to put Card P aside at the start). It also had the nicest background sounds on the companion app.Are they easy? Not particularly though they do work in a certain way so each subsequent game gets easier to work through though they are never easy in themselves.I'd recommend starting on the 1 or 2 'circle' difficulty (as shown at the bottom of the box as pictured) so you can get to grips with how the creators think. We started on a 4 & it was a little frustrating at times esp working as a group of five.All in all these are, frankly, bloody brilliant & I'll be disappointed when we've worked our way through them all - which we will.

EXIT game + murder mystery

the train compartment card design could be better as we accidentally open the back of it

Atmospheric game

We enjoyed playing this game visiting the various train carriages. Vaguely reminiscent of Agatha Christie.As with all of these games: A couple of the clues were too obscure for us to get, but we skipped using the help cards. The help clues occasionally to jump from telling you what you already know to the solution. The actual hint needed is that numbers aren't very clearly defined sometimes, you need to get exactly the right angle or distance plus a healthy dose of imagination to see that it's a number 6 not a 5 for example.Orient Express is a great game though one of the best in the series.

Ok, some positives, some negatives

I have never done an escape room activity before but I decided to try this as I like puzzles and I could play it on my own. I found it a bit tricky to get going but I soon got the hang of it and found most of the puzzles very doable and not too hard or too easy.The help cards in 3 tiers are an excellent idea. I only used them for a few puzzles and even then I only needed tier 1. I used the solution (tier 3) card to check I was 100% correct before I moved on.Having read some reviews I took the advice of copying some pages so I did not destroy the book with tasks and I can now pass it on to a friend to play as it would be such a waste to now bin it.Negatives - its a real shame the makers dont include more than one copy of the book (I can anticipate problems trying to share it when working in a team). Disappointed that the makers are not more generous with some duplication of the single use items. The book is small so I had to use a magnifier reading lens to check the pictures carefully. Given these criticisms, I also feel the price was a bit on the high side.I enjoyed it and may buy another if I want to treat myself.

A bit of a challenge, but fun to work through!

This was definitely a more challenging game, but it still was loads of fun and we were able to figure out what we were supposed to do with all of the clues. The only puzzle I didn't like involved page 9 (or at least I think it was page 9). It was clear what we were supposed to do, there was just no way I could get all the steps to work together to get a solution. However, I am sure if I spent more time on it it would have all come together.

Gioco interessante, ma la nostra famiglia intelligente lo ha trovato un po' strano e difficile

Abbiamo avuto due molte lamentele con questo gioco: le immagini nel manuale stampato da moderato a scadente sono troppo difficili per vedere alcune cose abbastanza chiaramente (un istruttore di YouTube online ha consigliato di usare la torcia del tuo cellulare su di esso, il che aiuta, ma ancora non con grande risultati sufficienti). L'altra nostra difficoltà è stata con i modi oscuri e non del tutto intelligenti ma più che altro "complicati" in cui vengono forniti gli indizi nel libro e le istruzioni passo passo: sembra spesso mancare di logica ed essere più simile a un gioco di fortuna a volte . Le carte "indizio" erano quasi sempre cose che già conoscevamo dal nostro pensiero, quindi a volte avevamo bisogno di un elenco di utenti di fanatici del gioco online passo dopo passo quando rimanevamo bloccati e non riuscivamo a trovare la nostra strada oltre un certo punto. I miei ragazzi di 11 e 15 anni che amano risolvere gli indizi e i giochi MENSA si sono arresi confusi e/o annoiati con questo. A 54 anni mi sono seduto per la prima metà circa, e poi mi sono fermato quando è arrivato al punto in cui avresti dovuto tagliare piccoli pezzi del manuale e iniziare a mettere insieme il tipo di arti e mestieri per risolvere. Ci riproverò un giorno, ma non lo consiglio per la maggior parte delle famiglie. Ma ... leggi altre recensioni: mi è venuto in mente che forse questa è una cosa culturale, e in alcune culture forse giochi come questo sono più tipici e gli utenti più abituati a questo tipo di gioco.
