The Inheritance: A Very Merry Mystery

Immersive set, cool effects, and a nice mix of puzzles. Our game master Amanda was fun and responsive. We’ve already booked our next adventure.

Another great one from Mystery Soup. If you did the old Inheritance, exactly none of the puzzles are the same, so this will be a completely new experience. A good one for fewer people -- we had 5, probably too many, we finished before the 40 minute mark. Thank you to our gamemaster Curt!

Another wonderful room at Mystery Soup. This was so adorable and this would be perfect for families with young puzzle lovers. The puzzles were intuitive - and adorable. Even without youngsters, us two enthusiasts quite enjoyed this room. The ending was absolutely top tier!

A great addition to Mystery Soup! Very family friendly, lots of different styles of puzzles, heart warming theme. Some of us had done the room when it was The Inheritance, but this room really is significantly different. It did not feel like the same room at all. There are MANY puzzles, which was great for our larger sized group, but they are also fairly quick puzzles so it doesn't feel overwhelming. Highly recommend!

Great Christmas style room! Lots of little puzzles that keeps you occupied and gives you those nice little wins. Perfect time to do this room right around Christmas time!

Awesome Christmas room. Great room for families!

The Inheritance: A Very Merry Mystery is a complete rehaul of the previous The Inheritance game, changing everything but the footprint. Story, puzzles and interior are all new, so it’s a great play both for new players and those who have done the original The Inheritance. We liked the previous game very much, but the Christmas- themed new version is a real treat. It’s puzzle-rich, but because the puzzles are at an accessible difficulty level, keeps the players moving and solving speedily. The puzzles flow logically and are wonderfully on-theme. This would be an amazing introduction to escape rooms for kids and families, but it’s so well designed that it was equally a delight for a couple of enthusiasts. As always, the owners and gamemasters are great. I’m almost tempted to borrow somene else’s kids to get to do the game again.
