EXIT: The Game - Theft on The Mississippi

Great game, some of the riddles were challenging, but it was fun to solve. Definitely recommend for people that love escape room type games!

We have done The Exit Game advent calendars before and just stumbled upon the game version. WOW! This one wasn’t as challenging as the others I’ve done with a lower difficulty rating. I do think you need to be a little older for this game, upper teens and very clever. This one took myself and one other person around a total of 2.5 hours. Definitely worth the money!

This game was a hit with our family. What a creative way to spend some time together during the holidays. Beats fighting over the remote and losing brain cells to crappy TV.

I love puzzles. this is just terrible. 1 or 2 good puzzles rest are non sense. so many other reviews give it high stars and then if you read there review they say even after looking at the clue answers, they still dont understand how the game expected them to get there. others say they looked at most of the answer cards.... that litterally means it not a good game. like I get need to look at 2 or 3 but MOST??? I don't understand why people who say they had fun but had to look at not of the answer cards. that just sound like you just read the answers because the puzzle was terrible and poorly designed.

Really enjoy these escape rooms in a box. Have done several in the past. This level was harder than anticipated! If you are new to these type puzzle games beware and start at a lower level - this was our third game and it’s difficulty was much higher than the level one below. Even with the clues and the answer at the end we still did not quite understand how they got there! Fun, challenging and a good time!

My 9 and 12 year olds love these games. We have played all of them. They even take the components and make their own Exit style games with pieces.You want to start off on the easier rated ones in the Exit series. There are common recurring game devices that Exit uses, and it hurts to get dumped in the deep end so to speak. On the easier ones, it constrains the options more about what riddle you are trying to solve at any given point.I tried to gift this to a couple of coworkers who had kids. I didn't hear anything, so I assume they found it frustrating and not fun :) I think you have to be into board games and solving puzzles perhaps.We tried several other Exit style games. We liked the Exit brand head and shoulders above the others. This was our favorite amongst them by far. Yes, we have played all of them. We also tried a couple of the other series the company makes. We didn't make it very far in catacombs though.What is weird, in a good way, is that everybody seems to be able to help solve puzzles. Ok, SPOILER ALERT COMING: For example, my younger daughter spotted the box the game came in having something odd about it. That was part of solving the puzzle! There is no way I would have figured this out, I probably would have thrown it in the trash. Sometimes it's by not following the rules per se that you make progress :)Perhaps this is a game that you love it or hate. Our family very much loved the series.

We got this game to play with our family over Thanksgiving. The youngest participant was 9 and the rest of us are in our 20s and 30s. We appreciated the mysterious story and detailed artwork. We have played three "EXIT: the Games" before and, despite not being the highest difficult rating, this one was by far the most difficult we have tried - even with the help of the whole family. It kept us amused for a couple hours at a time for several evenings. We recommend it and suggest not giving up!

These escape games are always so fun and challenging!
