About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready, because the Jumanji adventure has truly arrived at your table! In Escape Room: The Game – Jumanji, you and your crew have 60 minutes to unravel the mysteries and codes that will free you from the game's dangerous jungle. The vibe is cooperative, so everyone works together against the clock and the challenges the box throws at you. The Chrono Decoder, that electronic device, is your best friend (or worst enemy!) for entering the correct codes and advancing through the three adventures included: 'The Drumming Closet,' 'The Search for Jesse,' and 'Break the Curse.'

Each game is a race against time, where communication and deduction are essential. Entered the wrong combination? You've lost precious time! The game includes a quick 15-minute tutorial to get you started, and then you can dive headfirst into the two main 60-minute missions. It's the perfect kind of game for those who enjoy puzzles, logical challenges, and the thrill of solving everything before time runs out. The Jumanji theme brings that movie adventure feel right into your home, but be warned: the game requires a good level of English to understand the clues and texts. If you and your friends are fans of escape rooms and don't mind the language barrier, this experience can be quite fun and tense!

Each main adventure takes about 60 minutes to complete, but there's also a 15-minute introductory game to warm up.
How many people can play?
The game is cooperative and can be played by 1 to 6 players. The more people, the more brains thinking (and talking loudly!).
Do I need to know English to play?
Yes, the game has a considerable language dependency. The clues, puzzles, and instructions are in English, so a good understanding is essential.

You'll find the Chrono Decoder (the electronic decoder), game cards, hints, and the necessary components for the three included adventures.
Is it difficult to learn?
The game includes a 15-minute tutorial that helps understand the basic mechanics. The main difficulty lies in the puzzles themselves.
