Love Deadbolt Mystery!
Some boxes are harder to complete than others, but they’ve nearly all been extremely fun, challenging and worth the time and money. They’ve made great gifts as well.

Shipping got messed up by USPS and Deadbolt quickly helped resolve. Got the game, and it was one of the best we've played. TY!!

Very impressed with the ease of contacting the Caretaker and the immediate response. Annoying to be left hanging when you reach a snag or have a question. Finished my first box. A couple of the challenges weren't as intuitive as most of them. And the ones to identify sounds wasn't long enough to identify all the sounds. But all in all a very satisfying first experience.

I've had the 12 month subscription for 2 months. Have only received 1 box. The 2nd hasn't even shipped yet so who knows if that's actually coming.

Got it for my son and his family. The four of them look forward to their monthly box. Kids are 12 & 13 and they said it’s challenging but not frustrating. They make a night of it and love it!
