EXIT: The Game – The Disappearance of Sherlock Holmes
Players support Dr. Watson as they investigate a murder accusation that forces a famous detective into hiding. The game frames the investigation through a sequence of puzzles and riddles that reveal evidence and connections between characters, including a role for Moriarty. Designed for 1–4 players, the experience follows an escape-room format: examine clues, solve logic and observation puzzles, and use a decoder device to progress. Components include paper items intended to be folded, written on, or torn, making the experience single-use.
