Asmodee, Unlock! Escape Adventures, Card Game, Ages 10+, 2-6 Players, 60 Minutes Playing Time

My husband and I both love playing escape rooms that are thematic, a good mix of digital tech and manual hands-on riddle-solving like we are part of the National Treasure movie or living the Sigma Force series of author James Rollins. Such is Unlock!Unlock! has great art, looking at it, it's like the characters and the settings are jumping right out at you. Because the art of each card is a masterpiece, we opted to buy card sleeves for them.Unlock! Escape Adventures (combo 3 games)This particular unlock combo box contains a game where the group would be split! such a wonderful game to test teamwork. I was hesitant that I will like the cartoonish game but it became my favorite - it made me imagine outrageous things to progress into the game! The scientific game was also a brain teaser, it was wonderful!Unlock! 2 Mystery Adventures (combo 3 games)What can we say! These games changed the mechanics without having to change the mechanics itself! A paradox, I know, but all 3 games were so good they blew our minds.Unlock! 3 Secret Adventures (combo 3 games)Again the cartoonish game was, at first thought, would be for kids, as well as the Wizard of Oz themed-game, but heck, they became my favorites - so witty and creative! This also goes for the cowboy game, genius!Unlock! 4 Exotic Adventures (combo 3 games)Great for upto 4 people to really maximize what these games had to offer - each player can be in other places to gather clues *wink* *wink*.One production issue though, the Aladdin-themed cards had some slightly bad printing - just a few mm off.All the Sheherazade's Last Tale cards were not cut properly. This almost made the game unsolvable because certain card corners have chevrons that must align to solve a certain puzzle. Being not properly cut, the chevrons of the puzzle did not align.Overall, with Unlock! you'll feel like you're watching and immersing into different movies/places without having to leave your home.

Straight forward, interactive board game. Gets tricky sometimes but that's all in the fun. Would definitely recommend

Thos game was bought after some inspiring advertising was seen on instagram, before this I hadn't heard of this series.Only played them with my partner and must admit it has given game night some thrill and excitement over the last couple of weeks! The games are so exciting and being challenged against the clock only makes it more exhilarating.Some cons/issues/improvements we would have noticed in the games though, is however the fact that they aren't really relatable. Once you know the solution, it would no longer be fun. We are now left in the predicament that we want to play the final game in the box but dont want to use it too quickly and gave to buy another box so quickly.Second, although it isnt that replayanle, it's a shame you cant save your times etc on the app, so that you could do a time trial or maybe have a household challenge, who can solve it the quickest. Other than sharing to facebook etc, there isnt an easy means to save your stats.All in all, a great set of games for a fantastic evening of fun that all can get involved with, but shame you cant replay them.Maybe sell more single games at a cheaper price and might be more open to the idea of buying more.

Easier to transport than the size of the box suggests so it’s good to travel with. Unlike other escape games can also be reused.

Nice game for one person or for more.

If you are just getting into escape room board games then you might be struggling at your options to choose from. When reading reviews we found both the Unlock! and Exit games to be the top picks to choose from. But which one to choose first? Well, both are fantastic but they are also surprisingly very different from each other.The great thing about Unlock! is that the theme really makes each scenario feel different, and for me it is the only escape room board game that has successfully managed to incorporate theme into its puzzles so far. The mechanisms in this game are also really clever; as you search the environment you will find different items, each shown on their own item card, and you can combine these cards together (adding their numbers and drawing the corresponding item card number) to create new items, solve problems and open up new areas. The whole game almost felt like an escape the room version of T.I.M.E Stories (another brilliant game by Space Cowboys). The first 2 scenarios can be played solo but the 3rd one requires two people at least, and is definitely the hardest to solve! Unlike the Exit games, where you have to manipulate and destroy materials, Unlock! can be played again and again, so you can either give this to a friend or play it again when your memory of it has faded! If you like theme and you like puzzles, you should definitely pick this up!!

This is a great game for 4 or 6 players and lasts about 45-60 minutes per pack of cards.You get 3 packs of cards in this game and each is a separate puzzle in the form of an escape room. You have to study the cards for clues and hidden objects and work out puzzles and then either entering codes into the app on your phone/tablet or workout how to use the various machines again in the app. The music from the app adds to the tension and gets you into game.Highly recommended!

Bought as a gift but have played other games from other sets. Really good fun especially if you have a mixed bunch of people with different skills
