About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for an immersive adventure in Die Drei Kolosse, a puzzle game that throws you headfirst into a mystery with engaging audio plays and thematic enigmas. The experience feels like a real-life escape room, but right on your table! You'll open envelopes filled with mysterious items and, between challenges, dive into dialogues with distributed roles, making crucial decisions that shape the story's unfolding. The plot takes you to a secluded village, where three colossal statues of 16th-century lords, carved into the rocks, guard a terrifying secret: one of them, they say, transforms into a monster at night. Five experienced professors are summoned by the mayor of Bad Wahrfels to investigate this legend. Their mission? To use science and logic to unmask the supposed monster. After all, monsters don't exist... or do they? Die Drei Kolosse promises a cooperative deduction journey, where the narrative is built with every choice and every solved puzzle. It's an invitation to unravel a mystery that defies reason, with an atmosphere that pulls you into the game from start to finish.
