REA Reaction
We’ve generally had a lot of fun in Christmas-themed escape games, and Clue IQ’s take on saving Christmas was one of our favorites.
Operation Jingle Bells had a great aesthetic, and an entertaining mix of smart, joyous, and funny puzzles.
This game was explicitly designed for large families to enjoy. The large volume of approachable content, blended with the theme and non-linear gameplay reinforced that design decision. As a result of its non-linear nature, experienced puzzlers will blow through this game. Bring a team size (and mentality) that fits your goals for Christmas puzzling.
Whether you’re new to escape rooms, or you’re just looking to enjoy a great Christmas-themed escape room, check out Operation Jingle Bells if you’re in the DC area.
