Die verlassene Bibliothek (2020)

About this game

Die verlassene Bibliothek ("The lost library") is an escape game which consists of only cards. The door of the library is locked shut and the players are stuck. They will find various combination locks throughout the room. They need to complete the puzzles to obtain the codes for these locks. The players can only escape from the lost library if they collaborate closely and really put their heads together to puzzle over the clues. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
