Escape Room Games for the Home

Riddle Card

EXIT: The Game is a series of games for up to four players that offers a unique, unforgettable gaming experience. These games allow you to bring the excitement, intensity, and team spirit of an escape room to your living room.

In each EXIT game, your team starts out locked in an imaginary room, or trapped somewhere. You must solve a series of riddles and puzzles in order to unlock doors and objects, and reveal new riddles. Each correct solution brings you to another riddle and eventually to freedom. The clock is ticking: You must solve all of the puzzles as fast as you can because the faster your team escapes the room, the more points you earn. There are hints to help you if you get stuck, but they will cost you points in the end.

Each EXIT game has a different theme, and unique riddles that are thoughtfully integrated into the storyline. Every lock is associated with a puzzle. You must solve the puzzle to obtain a threedigit code, which is entered into a decoder disk to determine if it is correct.

Get ready to test your creative problem solving and logical thinking skills. After the rule book gets you started, it’s up to your team to discover how the rooms look, what the clues are, how to decipher them, and how to escape. Can you crack the codes and manage to escape the room?

Each game can be played only one time, because you markup, fold, and tear the game materials.

DROP IT Good To The Last Drop This colourful, inventive family game is easy to learn but deceptively mindboggling! One at a time, each player drops a shape into the vertical game board’s drop zone. Players earn points for the highest level that their shape reaches when it lands and extra points for touching bonus circles. But be careful: Don’t break a landing rule! The shape you dropped is not allowed to touch matching shapes or colours after it lands. If you break a landing rule, you will go away empty-handed. The winner is the player or team with the most points at the end.

INGENIOUS The Game of Vexing and Perplexing Hexagons Ingenious is an abstract tile-placement game in which the players take turns placing tiles in the shape of two connected hexagons onto a hexagonal grid on the board. The game includes 120 domino-style tiles, each consisting of two hexagons connected along one side. Each hexagon has one of six coloured symbols in it, with most tiles having two different coloured symbols and some having two of the same coloured symbol. Each player has a rack with six tiles on it. During his or her turn, each player places one tile from his or her rack onto two empty hexagonal spaces on the game board.

For each of the two hexagons composing this tile, the player scores one point in the hexagon’s colour for each already-placed hexagon of the same colour that radiates

outward in a straight line from one of the placed hexagon’s five sides. If a player’s score in a colour reaches 18, he or she immediately takes another turn. At the end of the turn, the player refills his or her rack to six tiles.

When no more tiles can be placed on the game board or when one player scores 18 in each colour, the game ends. Players then compare their lowest scores, and whoever has the highest low score wins.

Ingenious includes rules for solitaire and team play. This highly awarded, international bestseller is fun for the whole family.

UBONGO Sprint to Solve the Puzzle

Companion app helps you learn the game, keep time, and solve the puzzles!

“Well suited for the entire family, combining the allure of puzzles and the excitement of a little friendly competition.”

—The Toy Insider

GAMES

Ubongo is a fast-paced, addictive, and easy-to-learn geometric puzzle game.

Players race against the timer and against each other to solve a puzzle of interlocking shapes. The faster you solve the puzzle, the more gems you get.

The player with the most valuable gem treasure after nine rounds of solving puzzles wins! Here’s how it works: Each player receives a set of 12 tiles. The tiles are polyominos — geometric shapes formed of equal-size squares joined edge to edge in different arrangements.

At the start of each round, each player gets a new puzzle board. A roll of the die determines which tiles you must use to perfectly fill in the empty spaces on the puzzle board. Any players who complete the puzzle within the time limit yell out “Ubongo!” and grab a gem at random from the bag. The fastest player also gets a blue gem and the second fastest an amber gem. Each gem colour is worth a different amount of points. After nine rounds, the player with the most valuable gem collection wins.

Download the free companion app, which helps you learn how to play the game, and includes a game timer, a solo game timer, and solution keys.

“Dimension is an outstanding family game”

DIMENSION The Spherical, Stackable, Fast-Paced Puzzle Game!

Dimension is a fast-paced, innovative puzzle game that takes place in three dimensions with 60 colourful spheres.

All of the players play at the same time.

Everybody tries to position the spheres on their trays to earn as many points as possible before the timer runs out. The task cards indicate how the spheres must be placed to earn points: for example, exactly two orange spheres must be on the tray, black and blue must touch each other, and blue must not touch white. Complete these tasks while racing against the timer. You get a point for each sphere you use and a bonus token for using all five colours, but you lose two points for each task card you don’t follow correctly. Prove to your opponents that you are the master of multi-dimensional thinking!

The Magnetic Labyrinth

The Way of the Elephant

This innovative vertical holder with interchangeable game boards and magnetic game pieces allows you to play three fun, action-packed games. The games are played in teams, playing one at a time. One teammate must move the guide magnet on the backside of the game board, while the other teammate sees the game magnet move on the front of the board. This teammate must communicate with the teammate controlling the magnet and tell him or her how to move the magnet to complete the game challenge without the magnet falling off or going to the wrong spot.

In the racing game, the object is speed: Which team can complete the course the fastest? In the golf game, the object is precision: How many strokes does the team need to take to reach the hole? In the stoneage gatherer game, players collect objects to build items for their tribes.

Welcome to the elephant festival in the Indian province of Kerala! Exquisitely decorated elephants parade the streets.

The celebration is alive with colour and music. To participate in the revelry, you want to fashion the most elegant platform for your elephants. You want your festival platform to have at least one tile of each colour, with all the tiles of a colour contiguously placed, and showing as many elephant symbols as possible.

Each round, you move one of your two elephants to place a new tile and expand your platform. You will have to adjust your plans as your rival platform builders grab the desirable tiles before you can get them. You will need clever tactics and good luck to win the award for the best in show!

BRUTAL KINGDOM The Game of Beastly Betrayal The king’s court is no place for the faint of heart — or the weak of claw and fang.

Here, almost everyone is secretly plotting to attain the greatest amount of power in three spheres of influence: royal, clerical, and mystical. The bishop has avoided a poisoning, but now the danger awaits the abbot, who himself pursues the witch. The king and queen are at each other’s throats, while the executioner awaits his next assignment. The law is survival of the fittest in this game of feral human nature. The 20 stunningly illustrated anthropomorphized animal characters will have you clawing your way to power by tooth and nail.

WORD SLAM The Fast-Paced Word-Based Guessing Game “EAT, YELLOW, CIRCLE. Do you mean pancakes? Or pineapple rings?”

“Oh wait, the CIRCLE is DIVIDED? So something that you eat that is yellow and semicircular? Uh, is it, maybe ... a banana?”

“Yes, the answer is banana! One point for the Blue Team!”

In Word Slam, two teams each have a storyteller. The two storytellers are given the same answer term. Playing at the same time, they must give clues to their teams so the teams can correctly guess the answer.

And they must do this quickly, because they are racing the timer and each other.

But it’s not that easy. Speaking and acting

is absolutely forbidden for the storytellers!

They must tell their stories using only 105 cards, each with one word on it: a noun, verb, adjective, or preposition.

The storyteller must be creative in using this limited vocabulary to tell the story. And the team members must think quickly and nimbly to interpret the story cards. The team that correctly guesses the answer first gets a point, and the team with the most points at the end of the game wins.

It’s like charades, but instead of acting, you can only communicate with word cards!

But a player can only choose one of three actions in a turn: excavate a new stone block from the quarry, load a block onto a ship, or move a ship to a construction site. From there, the massive stone blocks must be unloaded in order from bow to stern and placed on the sites in preset sequences. Depending on where the blocks end up, players earn different point values either immediately or at the end of the game.

In each turn, you must weigh your options for getting your own stones into place and thwarting your opponents’ placement plans. You must get your blocks to the right places, in the right order, at the right time to be the greatest architect.

MERCADO False Money and True Status As players in Mercado, you assume the roles of wealthy members of upper-class society. To raise your social status, you must buy luxury goods. So you shop around the market for expensive baubles, finery, shoes, jewellery, and perfume — anything that will increase your reputation among the other snobs and social climbers.

Several market stands are laid out on the table where you can see valuable products and their prices, which are various combinations of coloured coins.

But to complicate matters, some of the coins are counterfeit. Every player has his or her own coin purse with different coloured coins in it. On a turn, a player grabs blindly into the purse, pulls out three coins, and places them on the market stands of his or her choice. If a player has enough coins on a market stand after a few rounds, the player receives the luxury item from this market stand, and the player earns the corresponding reputation points. The used coins are out of the game for now.

Opponent players who also placed coins on this market stand put their coins back into their purses.

It is exciting not knowing which coins you will pull out of your purse and hoping for just the right colours to emerge. The players must figure out how to deal with the counterfeit money. Once a few coins are placed, it will be easier to see which items the opponents are going for, and how they plan to achieve standing in high society.

Half of Europe is deeply divided by conflict between Catholics and Protestants. England, France, Spain, and the Netherlands are all vying for power and resources. In this politically unstable environment, players compete to increase their influence by aligning with members of prominent families. They form alliances with dignitaries across Europe and set up trading houses to sell their goods. The religious power struggles in these countries are incessant, and those who sympathise with the losing religion are occasionally driven out of a country. Who will best exploit the changing religious attitudes in each country to gain control?

Builders compete against each other to contribute the most to this cathedral’s construction and, in so doing, score the most victory points. To play the game, players must first use workers to procure raw building materials, and then use craftsmen to convert the materials into victory points.

What actions will you take on your path to victory? Will you seek an audience with the king perhaps, to get to the metal you need? Or should you avail yourself of the support of influential personalities?

A brief stay in the monastery could be as beneficial to you as strong ties to your craftsmen. Your workers may also be used to earn gold, the currency of the game. Transport yourself to Medieval England as described in Ken Follett’s best-selling novel, The Pillars of the Earth.

LOST CITIES The Board Game The research teams are outfitted and ready to embark on their adventures to find five forgotten cities. Who will lead the way to fantastic discoveries?

Each player guides a team of explorers on up to five expeditions. To advance along an expedition path, a card in the path’s colour must be played for each step forward. The card must be of equal or greater value to the player’s card previously played on that path.

After playing or discarding a card, the player draws a new card. Skilled team leaders assess when to play, hold, or discard their cards to move their own teams forward while at the

same time preventing their opponent teams from getting ahead.

Points are awarded based on how far the explorers make it along their paths. Each step earns more points than the one before it, and the first three steps earn negative points.

Along the way, players can increase points by finding artifacts, victory points, and shortcuts forward. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins!

In Tumult Royale, you play the royals. Round after round, you collect taxes from your subjects in order to build statues of yourself across the country, thereby securing your rank. If you leave enough commodities for the people after taxation, all is well and you can continue to build monuments to your own vanity. But if you take too much, the greediest of you will be punished. Who will build the most statues and win the game?

A notorious gang of smugglers is recruiting new members. Candidates step forward and compete to smuggle contraband items in sacks formed from modelling putty. You must try to get through a hole in a fence while carrying the biggest sack of contraband possible. If you make it, you have a chance to inspect other smugglers’ sacks that are smaller than yours. Guess correctly and keep their contraband! The player who collects the most contraband items wins!

KAHUNA

THE ROSE KING

TALLY HO!

The Classic Two-Player Game

A Thorny Feud For Two Players

Who’s Hunting Whom?

Who will rule the South Seas? Two Kahuna — ancient sorcerers of the Pacific — compete for dominance on an archipelago consisting of twelve small islands. Using their magic and wisdom, they struggle for control of the islands.

They anxiously await the cards handed to them by fate.

But when the time is right, they move to capture one, two, or even more islands, trying to gain the upper hand. At the mercy of the magical powers of the South Seas, they quickly realise that even the best magic is no good without strategy.

England, 15th Century — On one side, the House of York, with its heraldic badge featuring a single, snow white rose.

And on the other side, the House of Lancaster, its own heraldic rose depicted in blood red. The War of the Roses, a dynastic struggle for control of the English crown, has erupted between the two houses. In this strategic game, one player commands the House of York and the other, the House of Lancaster. Who will be crowned England’s new king?

The hunter becomes the hunted in this humorous twoplayer game! One player picks up the axe and rifle to assume the roles of lumberjacks and hunters, while the other player slips into the furs of foxes and bears. Both parties hunt ducks and pheasants — and each other — to earn points! At first, the forest is peaceful under a canopy of unrevealed tiles. But as the tiles are flipped, pandemonium breaks out among the pines. Happy hunting!

TARGI A Contest Between Two Nomadic Tribes Along Desert Trade Routes A Targi is a male member of the Tuareg people, who live in the Sahara desert. As tribe leader, you will be trading dates, salt, and pepper to obtain coveted gold coins and advantages. In the game, the desert is a five-by-five grid of cards. Position your Targi figures on the cards that border the desert. You carry out the actions of those cards as well as the cards at the crossroads between them. If you don’t go to the merchant, you won’t be able to trade — and even worse, your opponent will. Or maybe a caravan will bring the merchandise you desire. There are many choices to consider. But don’t wait too long, the desert is harsh and you might miss an opportunity to make a deal. In the next round, a completely different set of offerings will be on the table. The goods cards are the means to the end of getting highly desired tribe cards. These in turn bring advantages during the game and victory points at the end. You can win only if you plan shrewdly and always keep some gold in your pocket.

LAGOONIES The Undersea Search Game All is calm in the enchanted coral reef. The mischievous sea sprites swim and play, and tease the big ghost octopus. Suddenly, the grumpy octopus reaches out his long tentacles. He twirls around very fast, creating a whirlpool of bubbles in the reef. The sea sprites aren’t strong enough to swim against the whirlpool current. They are swept up and spun all around the fizzing foaming reef.

Can you use your magical bubble magnifying lenses to find your sea sprite friends, pick them out from the look-alikes, and bring them safely back to the hiding hole in your

JUNGLE PARTY The Wild Memory Game You’re invited to a party in the jungle! Tonight, the whole jungle gang is planning to plunge into the river. Can you remember where they are all hiding as they float down the river?

ahead of the others on their expedition to reach the toad king!
