GBI LOVE this game!! I LOVE this game!!! The Woods didn't catch me as well as the one I just started, The Mountain, but I really do enjoy it all. One chapeter gives me hours or days worth of mystery solving goodness and all the trinkets are wonderful and I keep them as keepsakes. I also love the characters, websites used for the episodes, and everything that goes into making these creative games. Everything looks super authentic and beautifully thought out!!! I will be a customer forever if I can!!!

GBGot a 5 month subscription did the… Got a 5 month subscription did the woods wasnt bad but not worth a second run. They renewed anyway against my choice as a forced subscription. They did this at 2am local time so we wouldn't see it to the following morning. Its gets worse the phone number listed in the email doesnt work, the terms and services link also is a dead link. They conveniently leave you just the email choice in which they state they dont check daily giving them enough time to force this on you. The website text assistant vaguely states a day as a standard response time. A day to text is beyond poor business practice. Given zero information or way to properly cancel a subscription I didnt accept is fraud. Do not order from them.

GBWaste of Money - serial story a disappointment Our family ordered this for 6 months and, after the first box, wanted to cancel and get a refund. First, we didn't realize this story builds month over month - I seriously thought we'd have a difference mystery each time. Secondly, the puzzles were too easy. When I wrote to ask for a refund and cancellation I got a form email that all sales were final per their policy and they would cancel future renewals but that I'm out the $140 for the six episodes. Not very customer service oriented.

GBIf you are considering buying, beware the bait and switch If you are considering buying, a few things to know. The "2 bottles of free wine" that is supposed to be part of the package, is actually another website you have to go to and register and then order-yadda, yadda. And when I went to the Empty Faces site it said it had a 25% discount applied at check out. I ordered the $140 package and got a $7.50 discount. I'm not so great at math, but that was clearly not the $28 I was promised. And after getting all the way through the process it turns out that this is a subscription, not a 5-month package--so 5 months from now I have to remember to turn it off. I had been looking at this as a gift for a few weeks and it's my bad that I didn't try to place the order sooner and learn all this 2 weeks ago. I sure hope the game makes my sister happy enough to make up for all the ridiculous bait and switch. Bad news.

GBDisappointed Am I the only one that was underwhelmed? We got episode one of the Woods.I My family and I got through the first package in one night. When I told my husband what I spent it, he made a disappointing face. The trinkets are cute, but the story is kind of boring and no anywhere near as evil as I was hoping. I won't be getting any more.
