Puzzle Card – Escape the Video Store

While birdwatching on the roof of an old abandoned building the ceiling suddenly gives way beneath you.

You fall into a large dusty room full of shelves. Finding a note on the floor you pick yourself up. Your eyes begin to adjust to the darkness as the smell of death and nostalgia fills your lungs.

This place seems very old yet familiar…

How does it work?

Puzzle cards are an escape room-type experience in a greeting card. The scene illustrated within the card presents you with a series of written, visual, and abstract clues. These clues will need to be found and pieced together to solve the puzzle and “escape the video store”. The solution to the puzzle is a codeword.

On the back of the card will be a website address that you can follow to check that your solution is correct.

Just like an escape room, you can solve it by yourself or with friends.

How does this card work as a gift?

This is the perfect birthday card for a friend or family member who loves movies, puzzles and who thinks they are too clever. There is space on the back to write a heartfelt message but for a little extra fun, tell them they won’t get their birthday gift until the puzzle is solved and they have given you the code word.

What to buy for a friend that loves movies?

Puzzle cards instantly turn a greeting card into a fun, challenging, and engaging experience. Just like an escape room, you can solve it by yourself or with friends.

This card is perfect for movie buffs and will test their movie knowledge. Not a movie nut? You can still work through the clues and compensate with a bit of Googling.
