Each week we have a group of 4 to 6 of us sit down for 3 hours to chat, laugh, and experience board and card games. As of late, we have been testing the games in the Exit series which has been 12 of their titles to date. With that being said, my review and comments below. Quality cards, well constructed. Nice artwork, small and sturdy box, properly packaged with all the material that's needed. In 12 sets bought and played, no pieces were ever missing or damaged. People have down voted the one time use of the game, which had me suspect when buying and trying. I bought the game for the experience, so the one and done was not a problem for me/us. While some people are used to replying a game and its common to pick it up, put it into the closet until that next gathering, which I get, this game is not intended to be like that. Playing it to reuse it, well, I personally would not advise that as its not part of the design experience. The game is more of a sandbox experience and while the puzzles may not be for everyone, its definitely for those that enjoy puzzles, riddles, and the ambiguity that encompasses those aspects. The hint cards, while I try to avoid them, they are a good learning tool for when you are stumped. Likely riddle card one you already knew and are like, that's not a hint, that's a waste of time or waste of a card. From my experience, just roll with it. Some in my group took offense if others figured out clues and they didn't, as if they were not intelligent or lacked some sleuthing gene. From my experience, everyone brought a different skill to the table and was leveraged as a team. If you have ever done a real escape room experience, then you will know that the breadth of the groups life experiences is what will get you to escape, not a person rocking an IQ of 160. Why am I sharing this in a product review? To set expectations that its fun, even if you disagree with the clues, riddles, or hints, its not meant to offend your intelligence, but to entertain. If you are looking to be intellectually stimulated, then take a peek at the Sommelier Diploma Exam. At least that's what I tell my group before our weekly gaming sessions as they are a hypercritical bunch. Local bookstores are selling this game for $20 to $25 dollars each. Prices on here are by far very difficult to beat. Hopefully you enjoy these games by Exit as much as we did.Weiterlesen
