Unlock! Epic Adventures is the seventh release of the series and features three new "escape room" scenarios that you can play on your tabletop.
Unlock! is a co-operative card game inspired by escape rooms that uses a simple system which allows you to search scenes, combine objects, and solve riddles. Play Unlock! to embark on great adventures, while seated at a table using only cards and a companion app that can provide clues, check codes, monitor time remaining, etc. The three scenarios are:
• The Seventh Screening – Grab your popcorn! Tonight, the horror movie "The Werewolf’s Final Night" premiers. Will you get through unharmed?
• The Dragon’s Seven Tests – The Gold Dragons temple welcomes every seven years new disciples. Be worthy of Mater Li’s teachings.
• Mission #07 – EAGLE, the secret organization, has been infiltrated. Agents, it’s up to you to identify the mole!

Played the Seventh Screening attempting to teach to new players who were a little reluctant to play. I don't remember enjoying it all that much but the split up mechanic was quite a fun addition. Played the Dragon's Seven Tests, really enjoyed this one and the additional things added to this. Got stuck a few times and got frustrated that we missed something so obvious a few times when we did puzzle it out but has so far been one of my favourite unlock experiences. Played Mission #07 enjoyed it but found a couple of the puzzles a bit more of a reach or a bit game bending to my taste. The final puzzle used a component i did not know i needed to have one hand so even when the solution was provided we could not figure out what was needed. I wont say what it was in case someone reads this and gets upset.

*** The Seventh Screening: 7.8 / 10 *** This one was ok. It had some new interesting twists for using the app (nothing like Mission #07 but still). The theme didn't really appeal to me, and some of the puzzles were trivial. But there are a couple awesome ones in there. So overall I would say that it is fun but not that memorable. *** The Dragon's Seven Tests: 7.5 / 10 *** Here the theme felt like there wasn't really much in stake. There was a lot of finding different keys for the same thing. The real-time element that really came out of nowhere was brutally hard to handle without any practice or easing in. We had some issues with the app during this one, which cost us a clue. Seems that we had already solved it correctly but the app didn't understand us. The last question was weird, because I was sure the answer we gave made the most sense, and even getting the answer I'd argue that our answer makes more sense. Overall this was fun but sometimes frustrating app stuff. *** Mission #07: 9.5 / 10 *** Theme was strong. Puzzles were challenging but clear (no fuzzy reasoning required). Great usage of the app (seriously took it to another level). Everything just came together in this one. I was impressed with the design in general. The characters, pacing, teamwork, thinking outside the box, etc. Overall, the best Unlock module to date.

• The Seventh Screening - 5 boring plot • The Dragon's Seven Tests - 6 ok, nothing to difficult • Mission #07 - EAGLE - 6.6 nice theme but nothing special
