Impressed
So far super impressed! It has videos, a music playlist, invites, and is replayable. In the booklet it has a list of all the pieces so you can make sure you have everything before you play. Super excited to play itEdit: we played it. We had 8 people which was too many in my opinion. We were able to solve in 1.5 hours

Great for kids
We got this for my 9yo daughter for Christmas, and she loved it. The puzzles were appropriate for her and her 8yo brother (with some parental help). This would be too easy for all adults, and it's a little pricy for what you get if you pay full price. But it's great for a mixed-group activity.

Not great for kids, no replayability
Our family loves escape rooms and we've done a bunch together, so we thought this would be a fun way to have an escape room at home. There are a lot of puzzles in here to solve and you can tell a lot of thought went into the puzzles themselves, however this really isn't very family friendly. The kids were all extremely frustrated with trying to solve the puzzles as they were quite advanced. The adults had some difficulties as well because really it wasn't very intuitive and we had to look up a lot of tips and hints and even those weren't very clear. The biggest bummer however though is that this is absolutely a one-time play game. You cannot replay this once you've solved it or in our case given up because it's frustrating. It would have been nice if there was some way to randomize the answer is so that you could play it again and again. Overall okay but definitely something you'd want to do with adults not kids.

Not my cup of tea
Honestly I wanted this to be a family game and a Christmas gift at that but when it arrived beat up and opened I was disappointed. But also glad because I looked inside before gifting and there was a lot of curses and things I didn’t much care for in the game. I wouldn’t not let my kids or family nor would I myself want to play this. There also was a lot to this game and a lots of booklets you had to read to u sweat and and overall I sent it back and was so happy I was able to just get rid of it!

Would love to be able to review.... but...
A lovely idea for a game.We would love to be able to play this but the box had been opened before being dispatched and there is no instruction booklet.I have emailed the company, 2 weeks ago and no response.EditThe company has responded and looking forward to receiving the booklet and giving a new review.

Family fun game, ideal for gift/birthday
The media could not be loaded. This is unique interactive family game. Good family fun game for weekend or during school holidays. Comes with instruction booklet, puzzles, notepad etc. Found some puzzles easy and some are hard. It’s a timed game and all players work as team to solve the game. Ideal for gift purpose. Value for money.However, only downside is, this game is a one-time play (once solved); so ideal for birthday party or one time family fun but can be shared with other friends.Hope you found this review helpful.

Great fun and challenging
The media could not be loaded. A great challenge to do on an evening. When the box arrived the seal stickers had been already ripped, luckily everything seemed to be still in the box and unused.A group of four of us found this very challenging and great entertainment and fun.A pencil is recommended to play this as notes need to be taken.The Spotify playlist created a good atmosphere with the escape room theme. There was music from The Mummy films as well.Would recommend for a fun challenge.

Disappointed
Christmas prezzie. Played today but sadly once played that's it, a one time wonder. Clever, fun but thought it would be replayable.

Great game for one time play
I got this for my kids to amuse themselves with and to try to encourage them off their phones, even if only for 60 minutes. First thing in the instructions? 'You need a phone' - Doh!You can play it without a phone but there is no interactive part - you scan the QR code to start - there are playlists but I didn't bother with them, just the interactive parts. I don't want to spoil any of the game by going into too much detail but it was fun! The ages playing were 12, 15, 17 and me (much older than that) and whilst it was a bit too easy for some of them, it was still fun to get roud and the tension builds a lot at a couple of stages!Shame it's a one-off game though, unless you can swap with people who have bought a different version...
