Gloomy crypts lie under the city of Paris. The catacombs swallow city light, riddles, and, apparently, also people.

For those who enjoy lining up all their Exit games in a neat little line of matching boxes on the shelf, it will have come as bad news that Catacombs of Horror is a double-size game, packaged in an outsized box that completely fails to match the others. The trials of rampant OCD aside, an extended game caters well to the growing numbers of enthusiasts who are only too happy to spend several hours working through puzzles.
If you prefer your games in smaller chunks, I should point out that Cataco...
We were surprised by how immersive this Exit game was! There was a full story that emerges through the game, with pieces and puzzles that all fit well. The ending is particularly memorable! It reminded us a bit of another, higher-end, more artisan puzzle game that we will never forget. While it did not reach quite the same level, we loved the idea of giving such an immersive experience to the mass market audience that Exit reaches and at such an affordable price point. If you prefer to avoid occult themes, then this game is not for you. Kosmos advises that this game be played by those 16+. This may be merited simply by the difficulty level; however, in terms of the theme and story, we would feel comfortable playing with kids about 12-13+. (In fact, we think our kids, who are particularly big fans of Halloween, would have really enjoyed this one.) Aside from those restrictions, we can definitely highly recommend this game. It really packs in a lot of experience for a great price!
Lisa and I are fans of Exit: The Game – fans who have really wanted them to break from their patterns and put a new twist or two on their games. We’re also fans who have wanted them to release fewer games of higher quality… and we got our wish.
Die Exit – Das Spiel Reihe von Kosmos zählt zu den beliebtesten Escape Room Spielen für Zuhause. Auch wenn für uns persönlich der Fokus zu stark auf den Rätseln liegt und wir uns mehr Story wünschen würden, so ist trotzdem jede Veröffentlichung von Exit – Das Spiel Pflicht für uns.
