ESCAPE ROOM GAMES MORE THAN

200,000 GAMES SOLD

Escape Room Games for the Home EXIT: The Game is a new series of party games for up to six 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 a room.

Each game has a different theme, and riddles that are thoughtfully integrated into the storyline. You must solve a series of riddles and puzzles in order to unlock doors and reveal new riddles. Each correct solution brings you to another riddle and eventually to freedom. The faster your team escapes the room and the fewer hints you use along the way, the more points you earn. The clock is ticking: Can you crack the codes and escape?

Each game is for one-time use only. Components must be altered to solve certain riddles.

The EXIT Counter Display holds 9 units.
