EXIT: The House of Riddles – Can You Crack the Case? 🏚️🔎

You and your fellow detectives are summoned to an abandoned house. Never wanting to turn down an unsolved mystery, you go in. Suddenly you hear screams – and the entrance shuts behind you. EXIT: The Game – The House of Riddles from Kosmos is an escape room game for ages 10+, difficulty 2 of 5.

What is happening in this house, and how do you get out? Like every EXIT game, The House of Riddles brings the escape room experience to your table. You find riddle cards, a decoder disc and strange items, and you have to combine everything you see to work out codes. Enter a code on the decoder disc and check the answer card to see whether you are right – then the next riddle opens up. If you get stuck, help cards give you a hint and, if needed, the solution. Work together and keep an eye on the clock, because the faster you escape with fewer hints, the better your result. With difficulty 2 of 5, it is a good choice for families and for players who are new to EXIT. Like every EXIT game, you may write on, fold and cut the materials – so it can be played only once. A free Kosmos Helper App can explain the rules if you prefer that to reading the rulebook.
