It's the year 1663 and you find yourself on a desert island, when in the distance you see what looks like a washed up old crate... upon further inspection, it appears to be a pirate chest! But whos is it? What's in it? Is there treasure????

 

Only one way to find out.....

​

It doesn't seem very easy and straightforward, almost like they didn't want you to get in there! But you must persist and get to the bottom of this mystery box, who knows what you will find... happy treasure hunting!!

I’ve played a few remote β€œBox” games, this is where focus of the game is a single box, often with multiple locks and compartments.  This is one of the better ones, some clever puzzles and ideas that were cleverly implemented.  Audio and Video were stable and all handled by Zoom.  The theming is pirates which is a winner for me and all the puzzles were in keeping.  It’s always great to be surprised by clever games, and this did several times.

A broken prop within the room really faultered my enjoyment of this room. I get that mistakes can happen and things break, especially when things aren’t noticeable of first glance during the reset but we lost a good 10/12 minutes inside until we and the game master realised the puzzle/prop had been previously broken. Had we have had those minutes back, we’d have successfully escaped with everything the room had to offer. 

The room itself is actually quite fun. Great little second doubt elements where you have to sacrifice some of your collected items to receive help, it really made you think hard before asking for hints which was an element I’d not seen in other rooms. If I was to compare this room with other at the venue it would be in bottom place but it’s still a great room compared to others I have played at other locations. Attentive host and game masters. Really engaging before during and after gameplay.

Great hosting and VERY family friendly. Played with a six year old and 3 adults and the six year old was very capable of figuring out the flow and many of the puzzle answers. There were lots of locks and a few very unique puzzles with this pirate them. It was nice not to have a telescape. I highly recommend for a family game.

Nice box game that gave us some fun for a while.  Really good puzzles and would be cool to have it delivered to you.

How much of the pirates treasure can you steal in 60 minutes?  This is another game where the aim is both to escape but how much treasure can you steal as well.  Well themed room with some great puzzles that range in difficulty.

Rearly dissapointing as I love collect sort of games. Broken part of the game and no extra time given back. The host seemed like he didn't know what to do despite being amazing in the other 2 rooms

A couple of bits didn't make sense. Just not one for me
