Thames & Kosmos - Adventure Game - The Dungeon - Cooperative Replayable Card Game - 1-4 Players - Fun for Adults & Kids, Ages 12+ - 695088

Loved this, a mix off the escape room games and make your own story. Better value for money than the escape room as you don't destroy. It's made of quality materials easy to learn and challenging while playing but not to difficult.

This game was brilliant. Honestly can't recommend it enough. I'd previously done a few of the Thames and Kosmos escape rooms but this was on a different level entirely. It is split into three chapters, which we played over three nights. The game description says 90 minutes per chapter but in my experience it was more like 2-3 hours per chapter - perhaps we were just slow! We used the app, which added to the game a lot and meant that we didn't have to keep reading cards aloud. I've used game apps in the past where the voice has been annoying but this was very listenable. I'd say age 16+ for this game is about right, both in terms of theme and the level of concentration required. This is a game you can only really play once. You don't alter the playing materials so could pass it to someone else afterwards, but you're putting clues together and I don't think a replay once you know all the answers would be any fun. This was the most engaging game I've played for a very long time. I'll be ordering The Dungeon, by the same maker.

Quite a clever little game, well packaged and manufactured. It has 3 chapters, each taking about 90 minutes. I can't really go into too much detail about the story other than to say your goal is to escape a dungeon. There's lots of puzzles to solve and loot to collect along the way. The game mechanics are quite well thought out (but I found the ending a bit confusing). There's also a free helper app to read out all the descriptions if you don't want to. However, once you've played through it the first time you've seen almost all that the game has to offer. There are a few points where you can choose to do one thing or another and I did miss an opportunity to figure out a puzzle before I was blocked from going back, but I think I saw 95% of what the game had to offer in one sitting. I wouldn't want to play it again just for those few alternate choices. Having played it solo, playing with friends after would put me at a massive advantage as to knowing how things will play out. Also, I would avoid playing all 3 chapters in one sitting as it outstayed it's welcome a little bit and had me using the help option a bit more than I probably should have toward the end, but that's not really the fault of the game, rather mine. I passed it on to my niece, who isn't really a board game sort of person, but she and her other half said they really enjoyed it. So, a good game, but bear in mind it's probably a one-and-done.

I really like this game, especially if you have older children. It is a nice cooperative game that can be played and put away if needed to come back to at a later date. Great value for money as can be played again. Can be played alone too.

We all loved this game. It has the flavor of text based adventures but it has nice artwork and a lovely mix of decision making with puzzle solving at different levels. We sat down with the intention of completing one chapter a day and we were hooked; so we all decided to complete the three chapters in one sitting! Played 4 players, including a 5 year old and a teenager: all loved it and we are looking forward to playing it again, this time choosing some of the alternative paths in the story. Highly recommended: please make more titles in this series!

Not as much fun as the exit games for us but well thought out and good quality. I think for the price it's worth trying to see if you enjoy it. There is replay ability in the fact that you don't destroy any of the materials however I can't imagine you wanting to play it after you've figured the story out. We found this Adventure game limited, there was always an obvious route or answer with no leaps of intuition or puzzle to work out. Yes you need to think and use the correct tools for the job, send the best person etc. But these decisions are pretty obvious to figure out, if you make a mistake you'll immediately work out how to fix it for the rest of the game. We got to the end of level 2 before we gave up as it was all the same stuff and getting repetitive. If you had the same experience as us try the Exit games by the same company which are much more fun.

Great fun for 2 to 4 players, the game has interesting art and mechanics and took us about 3 hours to play through. This is a story-driven game, with some interesting choices and a few light riddles and puzzles, an engaging way to spend an evening with friends or family. There is a free helper app that can read the game text for you like an audiobook, and will also teach you the game, ideal for first time players. This specific scenario is set in a medieval fantasy world, you start off trapped in a dungeon that you must escape. You progress through 3 chapters, each with clearly defined goals, and make choices and solve puzzles as you go. There are several possible endings, depending on how well you did and some of your choices.

Arrived in time for my partners birthday, he's a board/card game addict and I love escape rooms so it's a perfect mix of the two. Enjoyed it first time round and can't wait to play with others.

Seller is genuine and item is good quality

Muy recomendable. El producto llegó rápido. Hubo un problema con el envío y me lo solucionaron todo.
