Unlock! Timeless AdventuresSpace CowboysEscape roomTabletopThis is a collection of three card-based escape games: The Noside Show, Arsène Lupin and the Great White Diamond, and Lost in the Time Warp. There is an accompanying app with additional elements. We had fun piecing these together, save for a few frustrating moments. Good fun for the pair of us.
The Silk Road: The Heist Volume 2The Escape Game - OnlineEscape roomTabletopSimilar to part one, this was a fun at-home (online) game. This is part two of a three part series (part four advertised as coming soon) and you get a discount if you purchase all three at once. Of the three, this one was our favorite for sure. For an online experience, they did a great job including different elements to make you feel more involved.

The Werewolf ExperimentEscape Room in a BoxEscape roomTabletopThis game had a lot going on for two players. From the time we started, it was a scramble to find the correct puzzles and get them done fast. Definitely felt the pressure of the clock and it created a real sense of urgency. One puzzle took a lot longer than others, which was the only real frustration. All pages that were written on can be reprinted so the game can be passed along to friends, which is a nice touch.

Thornbright Mansion: Chapter 1EnvelescapeEscape roomTabletopReally cute concept! The room comes flat-packed and supported so it doesn’t bend during shipping. You unfold the card and a little world appears for you to explore. There is an online component that works in conjunction with the “room” to plug in answers to puzzles. Nothing super challenging, but still enjoyable.
