Nightfall Manor Jigsaw - 4 Different Puzzles

Was a gift, they seemed to like it

As soon as we saw that Exit had launched a new style of escape-room type game we had to try it. We've played all of their existing range up to the most recent release, and while we've enjoyed all of them the chance to try something where the gameplay is a little different was very welcome.Those familiar with standard Exit Games will find some things familiar here (the code disc) but other things in 'The Deserted Lighthouse' are very different (no cards, no book). All rooms are played out via 4 jigsaws, which you complete one by one as the game progresses. As you complete puzzles and solve clues you'll receive further documents to help you on your way, either providing new puzzles or evidence, or directing you to start a new jigsaw.We really enjoyed this game. It took us a little while to get going at first, but once you get into the game the experience is very similar to the previous games but with added fun. We picked the harder of the two games on the market but we should have tried the easier one first, as we did need a few hints, but we'll go back and play that one soon.I particularly liked that several of the puzzles rely on/use the jigsaws themselves as part of the solution, it's not just that you complete them and look at the picture every time. Once you get your head around that it helps going forward to complete the further puzzles.The games are a bit longer than previous games due to the jigsaw aspect, we completed the game in around 2 hours. I'm sure others could do it quicker. I'd recommend doing some of the smaller games first if you're a beginner to get used to the process.

Played with a friend very fun game

Fantastic games

We love board games and escape rooms and have bought a number of these previously, which probably makes them a little easier as we have experience of how they may work. Our team of four ranges from age 26 to 79, with the 79 year old being queen of jigsaws - a great family game. Just bear in mind that you can only play it once.

I am a big fan of the Exit games. This one didn’t disappoint. My daughter (14) and I love to play these together during the holidays or weekends. This one had us enthralled and at points stumped. Excellent value for money. We love the addition of the jigsaw puzzles to the game play and this game’s puzzles were tricky because the they were all quite dark in colour. These games can only be played once, but work out cheaper than going to an escape room. I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys escape rooms or puzzle games.

The sipping was a bit nerve-racking but in the end the item arrived completely fine. The game is super fun.

Excellent way to spend an evening.

Está súper entretenido, juego altamente recomendado.

We wanted to like this, because we like the other puzzles in the series that we’ve done, but it was so hard that we stopped having fun. So many of the clues for the locks didn’t make sense or the clue would open a lock that was nowhere near the clue so you didn’t know which one to open. There simply was no logic. The last puzzle was way too simple considering the other puzzles, and basically rendered one other entire puzzle moot. That’s right, we were able to complete the puzzle without solving one of the clues. We’ve loved the other puzzles in this series so not sure what happened with this one. Guess you can’t win them all!

My wife and I love to play 'Escape Room' themed board games and the "Exit the Game" series is our favorite. Nightfall manor was a load of fun. Lots of puzzles to solve. Very clever. Challenging but doable. They way they incorporate the game box in to game play is very creative. The use of jigsaw puzzles is also a twist we enjoy. We never play with a clock. We just enjoy the gaming experience and trying to solve all of the puzzles without using the hints. For any other Escape Room enthusiasts, I highly recommend this ont.

One of the better exit the room games. Entertaining and greatly put together. I’ve handed this one on as it very little was ruined during first play.

Very fun and ideal for one or two people. It's a little bit of a learning curve if you've never played exit games. If you love jigsaw puzzles and escape games you can't do much better than this. Only complaint is that the puzzles are hard to see (too dark) if you're low vision like me. I used a lighted magnifying glass and work around it though.They are releasing an easy difficulty (two dots) one of these in 2022 so that looks awesome and I can't wait to introduce it to new people.
