Some really quirky elements to this game and creative spins on classic puzzle styles. For the company's oldest game it still holds up.

Thinking Outside The Box closed their Stranded game at the start of September, and I made a quick dash to play it on its second last day of operation. Since the game no longer exists this is purely for historical interest.

It's quite the challenge to take a room and make it feel plausibly like a desert island, and TOtB did an excellent job. The decor uses paint and faux sand to great effect; despite a door outline or two visible in the 'horizon', they make it easy to willingly suspend disbelief...

A fun game with good hosting, an engaging introduction, a pretty set and plenty of solid puzzles.
We find ourselves stranded in Peterborough! Can we escape?
