This is the "intro" game to the series of 13 envelopes. Fun onboarding experience but the series itself is much more fun than the intro

Very basic. There wasn't really much to solve .

The Scarlet Envelope is a subscription based mystery game that'll be delivered to your mailbox every month. You'll receive 12 games in total with the 13th being the final game that'll connect everything together. There's even a prize at the end!

Intriguing!
Newspaper: Introduction to the Mysteries is exactly what it says on the packet. It introduces you to the mysteries and therefore is a little bit ‘special’ in comparison to the rest of the series. Each item in the pack represents a different world you’ll explore in another chapter.

Fun introduction!

Newspaper: Introduction to Mysteries is an excellent appetiser for Scarlet Envelope’s future issues. As a standalone game, I’d say it’s a bit on the easy side for veteran players. As a part of the overall Scarlet Envelope series, it serves as a satisfying taster of what players can expect from the series.

Does this game make me want to keep playing? Absolutely!

Highly Recommended

As an introductory chapter, this envelope focused more on developing intrigue for future stories than on telling a story of its own. It was quite successful at that, leaving me excited for the future storylines and to learn more about the aims and mission of this mysterious organization that has recruited me to solve the multitude of mysteries in the multiverse.
