About Empty Faces

A GREAT EVIL HAS FOUND YOU. From the creators of Hunt A Killer - the fastest growing thriller subscription box ever - comes 'Empty Faces.' Empty Faces is a horror subscription box where an "evil force" sends you mysterious objects, letters, and items relating to a horror mystery story. Each month, you get to use the objects in the package to piece together the mystery.

Waste 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.

Don't Purchase We purchased the Hunt a Killer, and we really enjoyed that. We essentially wanted to try empty faces as we really like more puzzle solving rather than crime solving; however, we regretted the decision. Each box was a chore to get through. We did the Mountain and it was tedious rather than fun. Each episode provides 8-10 well crafted and thought out items... but that is about it. There is no overarching goal, there is no linear path in any of the clues, there is no way to tell if the clue you figured out leads anywhere or it just stops. Most fun puzzles have you unlock one thing to move to the other, this literally has you try to solve random puzzles just to solve them. Imagine realizing the numbers in the letter are a code, then you spend the whole time solving that code, and when you solve it you get a phrase like "Higher Power" and then thats it. It doesn't lead to anything, it doesn't help put the story together, it was just there. Or another example, spend time getting a random phrase and think you're done. Then the reveal states something like "if you take the first letter of each phrase and type it into an empty web browser and add .com you get taken to a website".... then the website you go to is just non-sense and doesn't provide anything to the story. In short, this was highly disappointing. It was not fun. I spent so much time trying to work through these then when I went to the reveal I became even more frustrated because there was no context on how to solve half of the clues. Don't waste your time, at least with the mountain, but would still recommend To hunt a killer.

Give it a shot! To be fair, this review is not 5 stars for two reasons, one is the poor tracking and shipment information, and the other is because I was a little disappointed with the second box. Once the third box arrived I was invested again. I'm not sure why I wasn't as engaged with box 2, but I'm glad I stuck it out and moved forward with box 3. Give it a shot! It's a super engaging immersive story. I can't wait to get to the end.

Very fun game, would recommend to anyone who loves a good mystery. Pretty awesome experience! Your first package pulls you right into the story with your first batch of evidence and a letter telling you the basics of what you're trying to figure out. The story really pulls you in from the get-go. My first box had plenty of material to keep me occupied for a few hours investigating and theorizing. When you figure everything out, you will have as many new questions as you do answers, which made me satisfied with my progress, yet still eager for my next box to come in the mail with more evidence and clues.

Got 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.
