EXIT: The House of Riddles

We have played quite a few of the Exit games in the last few months and ended up going back to this one after completing some of the harder titles. We enjoyed this one, there were definitely some great riddles but overall we found it rather easy and the story wasn't very compellnig - it is only the second title we got a perfect 10/10 score on.

This would be well suited to someone new to the series as it had a more hand-holdy approach whereas some of the harder games leave you more to your own devices.

Exit games are a great way to spend an afternoon if you like puzzles

Never get tired of playing these exit game, the lower level games are just as fun as the harder games, just means we get more stars at the end.

Designed as a single use game because you have to cut out clues. These 'cutting out' puzzles don't massively add to the gameplay in my opinion, so it's a shame they didn't just design it to be completely replayable (although I suppose a fair amount of it could be replayed). I enjoyed the variety of puzzles. Not a big fan of the booklet format for the scenarios/story (Flat cards/envelopes would be better), but the hint cards work well and the answer card/dial system means that there are no spoilers if you guess a wrong answer to a puzzle, which is pretty neat.
