EXIT - Das Spiel

Hut, laboratory or pyramid

Live Escape Games are a new kind of group entertainment, roughly similar to crime dinner games; but instead of solving a murder case you must escape from a locked room within 60 minutes by solving puzzles, finding clues or keys or codes etc.

EXIT Das Spiel is a series of three games, bringing this kind of game to the table. You have a decoder disc, a booklet and the image of a room. Booklet and image provide clues and tasks. For each task, you need to find the three-digit code solution to get clues or information or the next task. You enter it into the decoder disc next to the symbol of the task, the window then shows you a card number.

When the card with this number carries an x, your solution was not correct, otherwise the cards directs you to another card for information or the next task. During the game, you must make thorough use of the components, bend them, write on them, tear them up etc., so you can only play once with each box.

The game “Die verlassene Hütte“ puts players in deserted dwelling in the woods, in  „Das Geheime Labor“ you are locked into a laboratory and in „Die Grabkammer des Pharao“ inside a pyramid. In each case, you escape by solving all puzzles, which are different in every box.

A marvelous game idea which was thrillingly and challengingly interpreted, the puzzles are difficult and interesting and the checking for correct solutions is done with a nearly ingenious mechanism; you get used to destroying components and there is even a scoring in relation to the time you took and the assistance cards you used. At the end, there is only one question left – when will the next titles be released?
