About this game

A murder mystery escape room in a box set aboard the legendary Orient Express. Eight suspects, one victim, and a knocked-out detective whose notes you must decipher to solve the case before reaching Constantinople. Like all EXIT games, you will fold, cut, and destroy components to solve puzzles, making this a one-time experience. The murder-mystery framing gives this entry a stronger narrative thread than most EXIT games, and the puzzles cleverly integrate with the train setting.
