Your Christmas trip hasn’t gone as planned, and now you have to escape a mountain cave to survive! For a personal pre-Christmas adventure, you decided to go skiing alone in the mountains. While enjoying the crisp mountain air, an avalanche happens just behind you! You jump into a small cave to dodge the onslaught of snow, but now you’re stuck! You have 24 riddles to solve before you can escape with your life, can you do it? EXIT Advent Calendar is an EXIT game and an advent calendar in one! Every day, solve a tiny puzzle in a tiny 3D room, and each solution brings you closer to your escape. The cave itself looks lived in, with signs of life everywhere, but as far as you can see there’s nothing alive nearby. Traven into the cave itself and break through the other side! Can you solve The Mystery of the Ice Cave and get out alive? Contents: 1 Calendar with 24 doors 35 Riddle Cards 9 Strange Items Additional Material 1 Story Book 1 Help book 1 Rule sheet 3 Decoding strips 1 Decoding table
You will likely notice that unlike general advent calendars, there is no number sequence to tell you what order to open the doors. Only the very first door is numbered. As you read through the story, you will be informed when to open the first door. In order to discover what door comes next, you will need to solve the current puzzle correctly. There is no cheating allowed here. When you think you have solved the puzzle (always a 3 number code), you slide the bars of the decoder to match and flip it over. On the reverse, you will find an arrow and a shape on the back of each number.
From the door you just completed, you follow the arrows indicated as a path towards the next door, and (brilliantly!) the shapes then act as a sort of ‘key’. If you have solved the puzzle correctly, then the door the path leads you to, will correspond with the shape sequence on your decoder. If they do not match, then you have either not completed the puzzle correctly, or you have done something wrong. Then, if they do match, then well done! You have smashed the puzzle or riddle, and you can now write the next number on the snowball on the front of the door. This shows you what one you will be opening next. You will have to wait until the next day though! Only I am allowed to jump straight from door to door. I had to! Or there would be no review for you to read. I did it for you, my dear reader.
