The Jackbox

What it is/what you do with it: a set of escape room type mechanical puzzles.

Combine variety of items to solve puzzles and unlock the next level.

Puzzles feature 'mechanical' locks/bolds/pins, electrical circuits, logic and memory mini games.

Find extra jigsaw puzzle pieces (there are 20 at each level) to complete one episode of the story.

The puzzles need to be solved quickly... be slow and the Jack In the Box will pop up and punch you in the face!

What we liked: the concept. Great variety of challenging 'mechanical' mini-puzzles. AR and regular play mode. Beautiful 3D artwork. Sound backgrounds and sounds. The storyline (all puzzles are part of a story). Simple game controls.

What we didn't like: no hints.
