The sea is calm. The sun is shining. You’re on the perfect sailing excursion. But then you spot something on the horizon. Dark clouds are rolling in unusually fast. Soon the sun has disappeared and darkness has surrounded you. Everything is absolutely still ... until suddenly, out of nowhere, a mighty gust of wind capsizes your boat. You are knocked unconscious. When you wake up, you are on a black sand beach. There’s no sign of your boat, not even wreckage. You look around and find an old book and a mysterious golden compass disk. A boat is chained to a palm tree. Everything on this island seems to be secured with locks ... and you soon come to realize: You must figure out all the combinations to open the locks in order to escape. If not, you will never leave this island! Can you solve the riddles left for you and escape the island?

The EXIT box takes you on a boat in a storm only to capsize and awaken on a black sand beach. Surrounded by a forgotten island landscape your only hope of escape is solving the riddles and unlocking the boat. Overall this EXIT game has some of my favourite puzzles from all of the boxes I have played, but this is balanced by a few difficult puzzles that offer little guidance within the game, leading to us having to use multiple clues. The decoder wheel in this game is themed perfectly, given the look of an old golden compass this wheel differs from other games in that it does not use numbers and colours alone but has to be converted from symbols on the puzzles to decode the correct answer card. This added element does slow the solving of puzzles in some instances. The puzzles in this box are a great example of how EXIT pulls together both the riddle cards and the journal to create some interesting puzzles. There are multiple rewarding "aha" moments solving the puzzles that feel incredibly satisfying. This box will require quite a bit of out of the box thinking and real brainpower but I would recommend giving it a go.

A solid Exit game, with good themed puzzles. It didn’t feel as tricky as others in the series. However, one part that felt unnecessarily convoluted was the decoder disk not having numbers. By instead using symbols, it allows for different wording in the riddles, but it also just creates an extra step, since you still have to convert numbers and symbols every time. We also had problems with the final puzzle… Still an overall fun, non-linear entry, but not my favorite.
