A great gift! I received the Mallory Rock season as a gift, and I really enjoyed it. I tried to play with my partner but he refused to download the app to look at the digital evidence, so I continued as a solo endeavor — which I preferred. The cyphers are really fun. I love how you can expedite your next installment if you finish a box early in the month. I plan on playing more seasons in the future, so it would be really cool if HAK had an option to return/recycle some of the physical clues after solving to restock their inventory and avoid becoming clutter in your house. (If they did offer that, I’d probably still want to keep some of the cooler evidence items.)

Customer service is nonexistent I purchased a gift card-granted it got lost in our house, so it was a long time ago. But, when I tried to redeem it on the website, it wouldn't work, so I emailed asking if there was anything I could do, or if it wasn't valid any longer. That was on September 13th, and the only response I've gotten was an automated message saying they're 'a few days behind'. It's October 11th. I would have completely understood if they said it had been too long and the care was no longer redeemable, but the complete refusal to provide customer service is an interesting choice.

10/10 experience I have done the Mallory Rock investigation so far, and let me tell you, I won’t be stopping anytime soon. I got it as a Christmas gift and became obsessed with this amazing entertainment experience. I really like the cyphers and the way the game engage different boxes together. Some of them were easier than others, but every episode kept me super entertained and me and my boyfriend had great date nights figuring out the killer.

Ruined Trust in the Company I have been playing this game for years and loved it. Lately, not so much. I've been charged and no box has been received, I sent messages that went week+ with no answer, and when I got an answer, some weird run around. Finally, after months of this, got them to say they are doing away with their subscription plan and going with the single box games. So between their lack of communication, missing 2 boxes, and the issues I have seen from others, this company has lost my trust.

Challenging Fun for all This is a great subscription box. The cases draw you in and make you feel like you are really a part of the environment. The goals for each box are balanced well enough to offer a challenge to all players, but yet also allow all players to feel comfortable playing. Something else I like about it is, I do these boxes with my 13yr old and it is teaching him to slow down, pay attention to all of the details and make educated decisions once the facts are laid out in front of him.
