Reviews
Theresa Tot Ziens (UK Version)
Very good story, after playing it. You still want to figure out what all the details are. Worthy and nice choice with friends/family

Geweldige ervaring om zo te spelen. Goeie begeleiding en een tof en interessant verhaal.

Had a really fun evening with our group! This game concept is surprising, just a little bit different, but very interactive. You have to think about your own game goals, work together with the other characters to solve mysteries (or hide them), and you are regularly led astray. In a good way! Fortunately, we were very well guided by the game leader, and above all, we had a lot of fun.

Fun role-playing game. Everyone is a suspect. At the beginning, you don't even know if you did it yourself. Quite a difficult story.
