EXIT – Murder Aboard the Orient Express 🚂🔍

It is 1905, and you are travelling on the Orient Express from Paris to Constantinople. EXIT: Dead Man on the Orient Express by Inka and Markus Brand is an escape room game for 1–4 players aged 12+, rated 4 out of 5 for difficulty and playing in 1–2 hours.

During the journey, the body of Edgar Ratchington is found – and the famous detective Achilles Pussot, also on board, has vanished without a trace. All you have is his notebook. Can you work out who the murderer is and what happened to the detective? Like every EXIT game, it works without a game master: you work as a team through riddle cards, check your solutions with the answer cards and use the help cards whenever you get stuck. Expect to mark, fold and even tear the game materials, because thinking outside the box is part of the puzzle. That also means the game is designed to be solved once – the story is the reward. The Kosmos helper app can also be used during play. Level 4 makes this case a good pick for groups who already have a few EXIT games behind them.
