About the game
Picture this: a mysterious letter with clues about a lost Van Gogh painting lands in your hands. Now imagine you have to race against time through the streets and canals of Amsterdam to solve this mystery, while someone seems to be following you... That's the vibe of EXIT: The Game – The Hunt Through Amsterdam! Like all EXIT games, it recreates the escape room experience on your table – with the twist that you'll actually have to manipulate components: fold, tear, write. Yes, it's disposable, but the adventure is worth it. Gather up to 4 friends and get ready for a night of crazy riddles, deduction and lots of pressure (it's real-time, after all). Just don't forget the pencil!

Frequently Asked Questions
How many times can you play it?
Just once! Like all EXIT games, you'll tear, fold and mark components during gameplay.
Is language dependent?
Yes, it has extensive language dependency. Without translation, it's unplayable.
Is it very difficult?
It has a good curve – starts easy and gets challenging. Great for both escape room newbies and veterans.
Is it good solo?
Possible, but half the fun is group discussion. We recommend at least 2 players.
How long does it take?
Between 45-90 minutes – but if your group is good at puzzles, you might finish faster!
