A new kind of puzzle game!

Introduction

Doctor Esker has vanished, leaving behind only a mysterious book full of puzzles written in his own hand. Nobody has cracked his cryptic codes yet. Are you up to the challenge?

The game provides a deck of 73 cards which contain nine devious puzzles to solve. You can play through the puzzles solo or together with family and friends. Great for a party, a game night, or a lazy afternoon.

How it works

Each puzzle is composed of a set of cards. You can solve the puzzle by reading, comparing, arranging and pondering the messages, drawings, and artwork on the cards. Solving the puzzle reveals a sequence of numbers. When you think you’ve got it, gather the solution cards corresponding to the number sequence and flip them. If you see a message or image, you’ve solved the puzzle.

General Advice

The hints are meant to be used! Almost nobody, even experienced puzzlers, gets through without them.

Also:

• Puzzles may use anywhere from 4-15 cards.
• Solution codes range from 2-6 digits
• The solution cards should provide a clear next step: a message made up of a part of each solution card, which usually indicates the next puzzle to try.
• Some puzzles rely on the arrangement of cards relative to each other.
