Professor PUZZLE Escape From The Starline Express - Escape Room Game - Multiplayer brain-teasing game/Escape the room game

Product Information

The box gives you nine envelopes, one representing each of the eight cars of the train, plus the destination train station. You also get a solutions envelope. The game envelopes generally contain two sets of puzzles, either to cover losses if you decide to play multiple times, or if you want to share tasks with the party. The contents of the envelopes can be divided into two categories – the props needed for the puzzles, and props for telling the story. The story props don’t contribute directly to the puzzles, and essentially just show that the gang did indeed commit the robbery.

Each puzzle is different, but at first that’s not easy to tell because the first two riddles look like substitution ciphers (the second one is an unrelated gear-turning challenge). Most of the puzzles aren’t that hard – just time-consuming. Each envelope also has a “secret compartment” (it’s not really secret) that has one clue for the problem. I looked at two of the clues, which just confirmed that I was already doing the right thing. There was one puzzle, though, that I didn’t like and needed the solution for.

Players: 2–8. Most puzzles have duplicate sets of components, which is really good – it makes two-player games more fun and supports bigger player counts, too. Since this is a linear one-puzzle-at-a-time affair, there isn’t much to do for players, so I’d say 2–5 is more realistic player count range. So let’s dive into a bit more specific detail on Professor Puzzle Escape From The Starline Express, starting with the price. What hidden secrets will you uncover when you board the Starline Express? And will you escape in time?

Set contains 9 mystery envelopes, representing different train carriages, such as First Class Saloon, Dining Car and Engine Room etc. Pricing. We’ll go into detail on the price of Professor Puzzle Escape From The Starline Express in a moment but it’s worth covering in the quality chapter here too.

The first thing we should say before we get really into the detail on the price, is to get you to think about a budget. Budgeting is a really key part of the buying process, as without a budget you might end up blowing a lot more money than you had planned to. So take a look at your finances and get a bit of an idea of how much you are willing to spend before you take too much time shopping around. Price This one gave me so much trouble. I actually had the correct approach from the start, but slipped up and wrote down one of the times wrong. It didn’t help that part of the riddle works out like 5:11 x 3:00, and the math for multiplying doesn’t behave the same as for the math for addition. This could have been thought out better. Escape from the Starline Express is a simple game for two or more players. I can’t find a difficulty rating, but there is a 90-minute time limit. There’s no scoring system – either you finish within the limit or you don’t. You get 9 envelopes representing eight of the train cars, plus the destination station. Each envelope contains one clue, plus you get a solutions sheet. Solitaire or interactive? I prefer escape rooms with fewer players, but having more than one set of eyes looking at things is always good.Passports were the best part, even though again they were really small and faintly printed in part. Based on that price, when we compare it to the other options available, we’ve given it a price score of 8.9 out of 10. Board games category average cost There’s no scoring system. You either get to the end of the game in 90 minutes or you don’t. The game is rated for two or more players, so I feel justified in dividing the time in half as a solo player handicap. I finished in 2 hours and 50 minutes. With the handicap, that’s 85 minutes, which is good enough for me. Then we’re on to features. Again this will vary in importance depending on the type of toy you’re buying. You’ll no doubt have a view on whether you care about features or not for Board games.
