Provided with an assortment of letters, articles, drawings, websites, and physical artifacts, you will set out on a journey to explore the supernatural forces of Norse mythology and uncover the truth behind the disappearances. The meaning of mysterious glyphs will be revealed throughout the experience as you progress through the story and begin to unravel the secrets of fate and time.

Regarded by many as the "gold-standard" for escape-room-in-a-box type puzzle experiences, Tale of Ord provides lots of content divided into 4 chapters, some great diversity in the puzzles, and an engaging story to boot. The puzzles are not easy, but fortunately there's a very well-laid out online progressive hint system that will guide you from knowing whether you've even discovered all the components required to solve a puzzle (which is not always obvious!), right the way through to giving a worked explanation of the answer. So, even if your puzzle-fu fails you, you can still enjoy being guided through the immersive experience. Top stuff.

Brilliant and Beautiful
With Threads of Fate, PostCurious has made something really special, that—amazingly—holds up to the massive amount of hype that The Tale of Ord had accumulated over the years.
PostCurious’ The Tale of Ord wove an epic tale through interconnected narrative and puzzle components, delivered in a series of four parcels. As The Tale of Ord progressed, the density and challenge grew dramatically. We loved the grand vision in this smart, innovative, and tightly-written saga.
