Thames & Kosmos EXIT: The Game - Advent Calendar - The Missing Hollywood Star | Christmas | Calendar | Advent | Mystery Game | Family Activity | Ages 10+

I love getting my 11-year-old son unique advent calendars and this fit the bill. We have played several Exit escape boxes so I kind of knew what to expect from this brand and I was still pleasantly surprised. The storyline and the clues are very clever. Everything included could be a clue. From the box to the instruction booklets. There is one booklet that told the story and one booklet with hints. It’s not easy and I admit that I relied heavily on the hint book but it didn’t diminish the fun. The set also comes with a special decoder ring that you need to solve each riddle in order to find the door for the next game. I thought it was a bit expensive but seeing how well it is made, I believe it is worth the money. It is pretty large but in a good way.

Incroyable calendrier de l’avent d’énigmes ! Attention il est en anglais. Parfois certaines énigmes ont nécessité de regarder les indices, mais au global c’est une folle expérience, on sent qu’il y a énormément de travail derrière ! Je conseille fortement

Vamos en el día 9 y ha Sido mejor de lo esperado, los acertijos verdaderamente desafiantes y entretenidos todo bien armado, como dato es importante leer el contenido día por día porque los accesorios se pueden mover dentro de la caja y terminar en el día equivocado, nada que no se pueda resolver. Nos encanta como el juego incluye todo el empaque. Sin duda volveremos a comprar otra versión.

Arrived damaged and cards inside various doors contents got mixed around meaning you had to open all the doors to find cards required for each puzzle. I’m still missing one card in puzzle 3, after opening all doors so it’s stuck presumably inside the game box - so you’d need to open that to get it out - very disapproving. Will skip that puzzle but with all doors open, moving box now will lead to materials sliding around.

I liked it a lot! This is my first calendar from EXIT, and I was surprised about how much I loved it. I liked how the riddles were created, it was really fascinating to solve everything.
