Marvel or Disney?

 

Disney

 

Nice, it's a great game.

 

The Marvel is cool but it’s a lot for new players to take on. I play that one by myself because it is one that seems to almost incorporate a solo mode based on what can happen in the game

 

Wife got me Box One, a Magic Puzzle Company Magic Puzzle and one of the Unsolved Case Files games for Christmas.

Anybody in here play any of these?

 

I'm not much of a puzzle person, but we did a Magic Puzzle a while ago and it was really neat.

 

I’ve heard great things about One Box, but I haven’t tried it. I usually go with the Exit or Unlock games if I’m getting a one-shot puzzly game.

 

My girlfriend gave me this beautiful chess set for Christmas

 

Plan to do it this weekend over New Year's. Pretty excited for it!

Planning to play it this week, I'll let you know what I think once I'm finished.

I've had Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective on my radar for years, maybe one of these days I'll cave and actually buy it.

Which of the Exit/Unlock games would you recommend?

 

For Exit, I think the Abandoned Cabin or Museum were my favorites. For Unlock, check out any of the ones with the clown/mad scientist on the cover. Or Star Wars if you like Star Wars. That’s easily my favorite.

 

We "played" Unsolved Case Files-Harmony Ashcroft which was pretty cool if not a little underwhelming. Now we'd like to try something a little more high quality, anybody ever try Hunt A Killer?

 

Not a tabletop game, but if you are into jigsaw puzzles, I highly recommend checking these out.

We did it this week and it was really cool! I kinda figured out what the magical ending was before we were finished but didn't completely know so it was fine. Immediately bought the other 2 in series one and will probably start one of them in the next few days!

 

I got the “Mystic Maze” one to see what it was all about. I started it yesterday and already love it. Excited to see what the final “reveal” is when I finish. Some craaazy pieces. And I love the “look and find” check list too.

 

Yep that's the one I got too! We finished it in a span of about 24 hours. The pieces and artwork are super awesome, very confusing edge pieces haha

 

@bradsonemanband just received The Sunny City in the mail! Very excited to start either that one or the Isles one tomorrow!

 

Started Box One this afternoon. So far it's absolutely incredible. Will definitely be finishing up tomorrow

 

Finished Box One today, incredible incredible experience. Highly recommend for anybody who enjoys puzzles, riddles, etc. Absolutely go in completely blind as possible.

 

@bradsonemanband starting The Happy Isles now. How's Mystic Maze coming along?

 

Finished it today! It was so cool! After I finished it, I drove down to my brothers to let him borrow it. He’s a huge puzzle geek so he’s gonna love it.

 

If anyone is into heavier strategy games, I’ve played Lost Ruins of Arnak a few times recently, and it’s soooo good.

 

Just finished The Happy Isles. Gonna wait a little bit before doing the last one of Series One(The Sunny City).

 

Awesome! I assume they all do the same “trick” more or less?

 

Yep, the trick is always the same but the artwork is obviously different

 

Bought Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective finally!

Also picked up:

Hunt A Killer: Death At The Dive Bar
Exit: The Abandoned Cabin
Exit: The House of Riddles
