Hey everyone! Ready for a thrilling challenge? In EXIT: The Game – The Abandoned Cabin, the adventure kicks off when you and your friends, who only sought shelter for the night, wake up trapped in a mysterious cabin. The door is secured by a combination lock, the windows are barred, and no one has a clue how to get out. What do you have on hand? Just an enigmatic spinning code dial and a mysterious book. Looks like a restful night turned into an escape room nightmare!
This is a cooperative tabletop escape room game where collaboration is key. You'll need to join forces, unleash your creativity, and put your deduction skills to work. The mission is clear: crack codes, solve complex puzzles, and collect objects that are essential for your escape. Each successful step is a piece of freedom you earn.

Get ready to manipulate components, tear cards (yes, tear them!), and write on them, as interaction with the game is total and irreversible. This means replayability is limited, but the first-time experience is absolutely unforgettable. If you love a good mystery, enjoy puzzles, and aren't afraid of a ticking clock, this abandoned cabin is waiting to test your skills!

How many players can participate and what is the average duration?
The game is ideal for 1 to 6 players, and the duration ranges from 60 to 120 minutes, depending on the group's speed in solving the riddles.
What is the difficulty level of 'The Abandoned Cabin'?
It's considered a medium difficulty (BGG weight of 2.54/5), making it a good entry point for the EXIT series, but still challenging enough for experienced players.
Can I play 'The Abandoned Cabin' more than once?
Unfortunately, no. Like many games in the EXIT series, it's a single-use experience. You manipulate, tear, and write on components, making it unplayable after the first game.

No, the game is self-contained. The rules are simple to learn, and the fun is in unraveling the mysteries together. Just be prepared to think outside the box!
Is the game language dependent?
Yes, quite a bit! There's a lot of text in the puzzles and rulebook. For a complete and fluid experience, it's recommended that all players are proficient in English, or that the group has a good translation available.

You'll find a deck of riddle cards, answer cards, and help cards, plus a mysterious book, a decoder disk, and some strange objects that will be crucial for your escape.
