   What a great game! This game has a small learning curve, but super fantastic. It does have a lifespan, so you can’t play it over and over again, after you’ve played through all the variations; however, it’s still a good game and worth trying out. Gift to a friend or neighbor when you’re done. Would like to see more unique scene cards. It’s pretty tricky. We played with myself, husband, 6 yr old and 4 yr old.

   We LOVE this game but our codex is so hard to turn that it has actually caused us to lose the game a few times. After watching a video on YouTube where someone spun theirs with ease, we are now wondering if maybe we got a dud. We reordered it and will update the review once it arrives…
   *Update* The new codex is perfect, our first order must have been defective. I upgraded from three to five stars!

   This game was so much fun! We were a little unsure if we had accidentally purchased a game meant for kids, but our group of adults (ages 27-38) loved it! It’s fast paced and has various elements like the codex that make the game really unique and interactive! It quickly made its way to being one of our favorite games!

   This is a great game especially for 8-13 years old. However, it is not the type of game that you will play every night, but really fun and original. Great value, fun and different.

   I play it with adults and with kids! My 5yo loves the game. Just exclude the time part and it works with all ages!!! The time is definitely a challenge at times and adds the fun aspect for replay with adults.

   Quick, fun, and cooperative! Spot the 5 hidden shapes on each scene card and describe them to the player who controls the codex. Turn the card over to reveal the shapes and check your answer. If all 5 are right, you earn clues to help eliminate suspects, in a manner similar to Guess Who. We played with 6, 5, and 4 players, in ages ranging from 9 to adult, and everyone enjoyed it enough to play a few rounds. The cards and tiles are good quality, and the codex is a fun and unique piece. Every component fits nicely in the box. For the timer, we downloaded the companion app, although you could also use an Echo or any timer app. The free companion app is really well done with voices and theming, so I would recommend it. This Christmas gift was a winner!

   Fantastic board game, easy to play with experienced and inexperienced gamers. Game is primarily a “spot the pattern” game, and does a decent job of not becoming too predictable. You will have to change up which games you’re playing to avoid the game becoming too easy (you can learn the various patterns over time) but there are enough different location cards that it isn’t difficult to avoid learning all the patterns. Good theme, good mechanics, good fun 🙂

   It is like 5 minute dungeon meets clue. We had so much fun, ages 14-50. We will be watching for more in this series. Our only problem was the codex didn’t turn well. I am wondering if we got a faulty one. I will be contacting them to see about a replacement. I will update on their customer service. Update: It still “works” but feels like it will break any time. The loud crack/clicking slows game play to the point we don’t play it often. Sadly. We have gotten ZERO responses to our questions of part replacement. I am contemplating buying it again to get a working Codex because we love the game. Just very disappointed in the lack of response from the company.

   Got this game and love it! I have three kids, oldest is 10 and youngest is 3. Game is simple enough for everyone to play together and we all had fun looking for the hidden symbols and picking the clue (or clues) to use.

   Also good for a date night, my wife and I had fun playing after the kids went to bed, with some ways to play making it a fun challenge to get through together.

   Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun family game, or a date night game. This is one of our new favorite.

    It’s a cute game with a quick set up. It easy to teach and play and also has various ways to up the difficulty to keep you from getting bored.

    Its like a Guess who mixed with Clue. Very easy to learn and very fun to play. I got this to play because I love Clue and wanted something that could be re playable and not run out or only 1 use. We have gone through all the cases they have but we’ve added our own twist and use the timer app for the time.

    The game was easy to learn. You start out with an extremely easy first game, but after that you must put on your ‘Thinking Cap’. Great game!
