Very disappointing Very disappointing. They sold it as each box has its own resolution and builds over a season (but you don't need a full season) which is completely untrue. I had no way of knowing if I was done with a box without going online and looking up the answers. You should feel some sort of sense of accomplishment when you're done! Not only was that missing, but the "finale" was a super disappointment as well. It HEAVILY relies on the internet which I was not anticipating/did not like. You can't hypothesize as to what is going on along the way because the story line has no basis in reality. I was looking for something different to do with my husband--something unplugged that required some thinking and teamwork. What we got felt like homework and I ended up hate-playing it with some friends at work to get through it. We all agreed that it was a disappointment and a waste of time. I was also tricked into an auto-renewing situation and tried to cancel and it took two extra boxes (that I was not refunded for) to get it to stop. Beware.

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.

Beware of companies un-subscription… Beware of companies un-subscription process! I was not a big fan of this type of game once I received it, but I was not going to give a bad review since I thought this was well put together for those interested in this type of game. But I am now forced to give a review to cancel this subscription which is unacceptable. For those on edge on getting this game, you should be aware that you are unable to cancel through their website and need to email Walter at emptyfaces That was a slight annoyance, but the real issue here is Romnique.rivera at hunterkiller.com from emptyfaces will not cancel my subscription until I explain why I want to cancel. I also started the process before the start of the next shipment closes which is most likely why they are not canceling it right away in hopes to charge me again. So that is my review, and hopefully they will cancel my subscription now before I'm charged for another boring month.

Really disappointed in The Mountain Really disappointed in The Mountain. We were given a gift subscription to Empty Faces and received The Woods as our first set of boxes. The Woods was great....interesting puzzles/codes, cool effects and a fairly well thought out storyline. We were excited to start The Mountain when it arrived but ended up very disappointed. Someone else said it best...these boxes were tedious..more work than fun! The codes and puzzles were difficult to sort out and when you did figure out the answer it lead to nothing. Lots of cipher and NO interesting effects. We did not even realize we had finished the boxes...there was no conclusion. I later learned that the person who gifted us the boxes only meant send us the first set of boxes, he got caught in the auto subscription renewal rip off. DO NOT PURCHASE THE MOUNTAIN!!!

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.
