CAAn AMAZING evening of adventure, right in my home! I like escape rooms and puzzles... and this whole pandemic affair is really getting in the way... I thought I was just going to have to wait. Me and my wife played the Society of Curiosities game sitting in our kitchen, after the kids went to bed, and: WOW! It was as intense, and rewarding, and fun as the best escape rooms I have gone to. The puzzles were challenging, creative, aesthetically pleasing. The narrative story arc was compelling and the use of all sorts of different real world mediums was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves into the game. Well done, Curiosities, we'll be back for more. I am hooked.

NLEU customers beware EU customers beware, the company is not dealing with the importing costs to the EU properly which results in extra handling fees if you would order their products. Update: got in contact with them to solve this, although the extra handling costs to EU aren't resolved, they didn't make any problem to refund the remaining chapters. Therefore I update the score from 2 to 4 stars.

GB4 solid hours of puzzling fun, really helps to have a printer. It took us about 4 hours to play through the first mission with 4 people, and everyone had contributed to a breakthrough by the time we were done. We really really liked the elements being spread out between physical objects, text messages, and websites. My one note is that it helps a lot to have a printer to make copies of digital content, in case everyone doesn't have their own phone, or in case no one has anything bigger than a phone available to view content. It would be nice to have more of that content provided in the physical package, locked behind 'envelope 1, 2, 3, etc's until the player 'finds' them in the game. I'm real happy with how this turned out, and I'd love to see what the next installment looks like!

GBloved It! This puzzle is fun and engaging. After playing their brick and mortar escape room, we were so excited to be able to try one of their puzzles in the comfort of our home. The storyline is well thought out and in depth, pulling you in and keeping you interested. The star of this game are the puzzles, which vary in type, complexity and require differing skill sets to solve. We loved it and can’t wait for the next one!

CAImmersive game hooking you for 2hrs+ Really enjoyed this immersive home-adventure ! The quality of the intrigue and the tools they give you really makes you doubt what is fiction and what is real, and therefore, you are hooked for 2hrs +. This game is quite intricate, a lot of links to make between clues and attention to details is crucial, so if you are beginners, be prepare for quite a challenge. Excellent work S of C, looking forward for futur launches !
