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!

7th screening: rating = 7.5 (a solid offering - some fun easter eggs for children of the '80s - nothing wrong with it, but not a ton that was very interesting either) Dragon' a 7 tests: rating = 7.5 (not as much of a story here as with some, but enjoyable puzzles) Mission 7: rating = 8.5 (my favorite from this set - a good story and some deduction. The characters were a nice add, but only one really allowed a player to do anything special, so they didn't feel equal in terms of fun or engagement) Overall rating of 8 for set As a note, both 7th screening and 7 tests each have a place where you split into teams/work different parts of a puzzle. You can always ignore that working solo, but it does make for a different experience Also, Mission 7 says it's in 2 acts, but there's no pause between them. It's really just 2 distinct sets of cards used in sequence.

A particularly good edition of the Unlock series. Challenging enough to be engaging for someone like me that has played plenty of them. This box had some of the strongest attempts at making thematic integration of the mechanisms. Strong recommend for fans of these types of games.

These were all ok. I really didn't get the main mechanic of the dragon scenario, luckily my other half did
