We love a murder mystery in this house and enjoyed sorting through all the evidence to bring a cold case to a close. Took around 1hr30 and would recommend.

A very easy to follow game, we particularly enjoyed that this one is non-linear, meaning the puzzles can be solved in any order your team feels fit! We played via Zoom and each team worked on different things before coming together for the conclusion.

Reviews by escape room review sites

I am never going to be a fan of games that are giant logic puzzles as I prefer a more diverse range of puzzles, but saying that, if you’re looking for a decent game to play with friends (remotely) then this should keep you occupied for a while

Unlike the online escape games where things are much more linear, the printed materials provide a great way of building a case file against the prime suspects, where everything isn’t black and white or on one screen! Some “puzzles” are on the simple side where it is easy to understand what suspect the evidence relates too – other are much more complex and will call on numerous pieces of evidence to understand the motives of the killer. As such, families with older children, couples and enthusiasts alike, will all enjoy this game and bring something to the table!

6.2 / 10
We have a murder mystery to solve in this print at home puzzle game. Can we figure out the murderer, the location and the weapon used?
The Escape Hunt play at home games are a very enjoyable experience – a nice variety of different puzzles and a great story that makes the game easy to follow. The logic grid is a great way of keeping track of your progress while you play and adds to the mystery element of the games, using each puzzle to help solve another puzzle. I’d definitely recommend these games as a great family experience which everyone can get involved in!
All-in-all, a well rounded game, with great puzzles, a strong design and good story telling. A real treat for families and enthusiasts alike, this game comes really highly recommended. Take an hour out of your day to become the detective you were born to be!
