I love this game, its safe for all ages to play and fun for all those who love to read and solve puzzles. The quality was amazing and made me feel as if i was an actual detective. The plot was very readable and was fun to enjoy

We did one of the Unsolved Case Files games as a family and had so much fun. It was like stepping into our own detective show—reading through the evidence, solving puzzles, and debating theories. Everyone got involved, from teens to adults. It was a great way to spend an evening together that felt more engaging than just watching a movie. If your family likes mysteries or true crime, this is a fun and unique activity to try.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this case. While we haven't done all the cases yet, I would say this one is among the best.If I would give the games my personal rating based on how tough it was to obtain the objectives (Difficulty level) and if the case made sense (Cohere) without a bunch of plot holes, this is how I would would personally rate the cases we have done thus far (no spoilers):Harmony AshcroftDifficulty Level: 5/10 The objectives weren't real hard to solve.Cohere: 10/10 This was a well put together case. All evidence made sense.Sandra IveyDifficulty Level: 9/10 This was a much tougher with lots of going back. Still a lot of fun though.Cohere: 10/10 This was a well put together case. All evidence made sense.Max CahillDifficulty Level: 7/10 Don't overthink objective 1 or you will miss it.Cohere: 6/10 This was a fun case to solve, but there were some inconsistency and plot holes that made it less satisfying than what it could have been.Jamie BanksDifficulty Level: 8/10Cohere: 8/10 There were times that you felt like you needed to stretch things to make it make sense and fit.Jane Doe:Difficulty Level: 7/10Cohere: 5/10 This case felt forced and discombobulated. It also required additional outside knowledge than what was given in the packet. Very unsatisfying.

Nice mystery to spend an evening solving.It was just the right level of difficulty to be fun without getting frustrating (the way they set up the answer submission portal online helps with this).This is my second case from this company, and both have been outstanding.One disclaimer: This type of case game does require a lot of up front reading (e.g., witness statements, newspaper articles, letters, etc.). If reading isn't your thing you may not enjoy it as much. However, if reading is your thing and you've always imagined yourself as a crack detective solving cold cases and bringing the bad guys to justice then this will be right up your alley.Go get your evidence boards ready, and buy a case file to solve!

I'm not really a slow board game person, so I really enjoy these cold case games where you are engaged and entertained from the very start. It took me exactly two hours to play through the entire thing by myself. I loved that the setting was on a commercial space station, which feels very relevant to current events. One word of advice is that if the instructions say to go to a website, you need to do this to get a really important clue. The game is not solvable if you play without your phone. I was trying to take a break from my phone, so I missed a major clue and had to retrace my steps. Totally not a problem, just make sure to have a phone or computer handy. I was really impressed by the quality of all the evidence and how much work went into creating a fake website and YouTube news report. I feel that the company really went above and beyond with the detail, which makes the price totally worth it. It's a great gift for someone who loves true crime, mystery shows, NASA, and board games.

My husband and I play these on our stay-at-home date nights. They take us usually between 3-4 hours to complete with some breaks in between. They are so well thought out, and really great quality with everything that comes in it to solve your case! This one in particular was one of the more challenging ones we have tried from this brand, which isn't a bad thing if you are experienced with playing these types of games! If you are new to them, I would recommend one of their first sets (Jamie Banks/Harmony Ashcroft) as this is one of the newer ones they have released. They are pricey for a game you play once, but I personally think they are so worth it! We have a blast solving these cases and it really is a great date night game to play as it makes you work as a team and puts your mind to work. 10/10 definitely try it!!
