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.

GBAwesome experience I purchased The Search For Edus Madok’s Treasure to have something fun to do while staying at home and to support a great local business. What I received was hours of fun. The storyline was interesting. The mystery was challenging and I loved the variety of puzzles it included. I’m glad I bought a subscription. Future “adventures” will help pass the time between new escape room themes, once Kauai Escape Room opens.

GBPoor presentation, hope the game is good The game is going to be a Christmas gift, so it hasn't been played yet. It may very well be a great game, but just opening the box was extremely underwhelming. There were packets and things to read, but I get that most of it's online. However, the game didn't come in a box. All of the packets were just in the shipping box, which got kind of beat up in the mail. So now to give the gift, I have to find a box for it. And for some reason, a page of a mommy magazine fell out from among the other papers. The game I got was the treasure hunt one, and the page from the magazine was how to make pirate flags. Ok, good, relevant info, but could you have dressed it up a bit? (I can literally see where the page was torn from the magazine. The little paper bits weren't even trimmed off.) So now if I want my recipient to have this information, I have to trim down the page and glue it on card stock, etc. The total of my order was $53. For that price, this should have all been done for me. I gave three stars because I'm going to assume the game is good anyway. Over all, very unimpressed. Edit: I just went back and reviewed everything that comes with the game. The list does mention ripped magazine pages. It still seems weird though - why a modern magazine for a treasure that's supposed to be ancient? Edit #2: I spoke with a member of the company and she sent me the missing piece of the game. She was also very attentive to my needs as a customer and emailed me back quickly. Much appreciated!!

CAGreat adventures to do with friends or solo! This was fantastic! They are not just game designers but excellent story tellers! You get to ride through puzzles and challenges while exploring and learning about a world you did not know was out there. Really immersive, fun and just though enough to last hours. I enjoyed it with my partner, but this is the a game you can play with friends or enjoy solo! Marc-André, Montreal, Canada

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 !
