GBAn engaging, community building journey An incredible community building experience! We anticipated the arrival of every episode and our family cleared their schedule to participate. The best part is everybody was engaged and contributed! The interface was very intuitive and lightening fast responsive. The story drew us in. Each box took us about 2-3 hours working together to unravel. And, as we solved our first case our family ask, what’s our next case?

GBA 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.)

GBFun for a date night! Fun for a date night! Puzzles/codes were cool, figuring out timeline is interesting and can be challenging. The first season was great and well written. The second season we did was boring and uninteresting. The third season was great until the very last box, which felt rushed and pulled tiny details from things that didn’t matter 4 months prior, and we were expected to tie them together. We had to use the hints/reveals and even then felt frustrated that the minor details came out of nowhere and didn’t make a ton of sense.

GBChallenging 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.

GBSo much fun So much fun! Definitely engaging and immersive and in my opinion, worth the price! Only thing keeping me from a 5 star review is that they use DHL which never arrives on time and sends me a 'delayed' message literally every package and that I feel like the first season I did needed flushed out. But definitely an A+ experience! Can't wait for the next season!
