About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an unexpected adventure in the Enchanted Forest! What starts as a peaceful nature walk quickly turns into an escape room-worthy challenge. You and your friends will encounter mystical creatures and riddles that will test your reasoning skills and teamwork. Like other games in the EXIT series, this title is designed for a single playthrough, as you'll need to interact directly with the components: folding, writing, and even tearing them to unravel the mysteries. With each step, you'll uncover more about what's trapping you in this magical forest and how to find your way back home. The time pressure adds an extra spice to the experience, requiring everyone to collaborate and think fast to overcome the obstacles. The complexity is balanced, making it accessible for newcomers to the genre while still being challenging enough for veterans. It's a great pick for puzzle enthusiasts looking for an immersive and memorable experience, even knowing it can't be replayed. Perfect for a unique game night full of surprises!

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers before you buy

6 questions
How many players can participate?
This game is designed for 1 to 4 players, so you can venture out alone or call your friends to unravel the forest's mysteries.
How long does it take to play?
Typically, a game session lasts between 45 and 90 minutes. The time can vary depending on your puzzle-solving skills and the clock's pressure!
Do I need to know how to play other board games first?
Not necessarily! The complexity is quite accessible. If you've encountered escape room games or puzzles before, you'll feel right at home, but it's also great for beginners in this style.
Can I play more than once?
Unfortunately, no. The fun (and the mechanics) of this game involve interacting with the components in a way that they cannot be 'undone'. It's a one-time experience!
Are the components too complicated to use?
They are designed to be intuitive. You'll be folding, cutting, and writing on some items, but the instructions are clear to guide you through each step.
Does it require a lot of reading to play?
Yes, the game requires significant reading in Portuguese to understand the clues and riddles. If language is a barrier, it might be challenging.
