Description
Fancy a ride at the fair on the ghost train? Of course — but what if this ride suddenly stops and you become trapped in the scenery? Then it's time to start working with your fellow passengers to escape this place of horror as quickly as possible. Exit: The Game – The Haunted Roller Coaster is particularly suited for novice riddlers as an introduction to this series of escape room games.
Like other titles in the series, Exit: The Game – The Haunted Roller Coaster includes components meant to be folded, written upon, or torn, so it's marketed as a single-use game.
