The total score of a review doesn't have to be the average of your subscores. Sometimes a game feels like it should deserve a higher (or lower) rating than the exact sum of its parts.

De beste detective die er te koop is

Nog meer dan escape-fan ben ik een bordspelliefhebber en dan nog wel vooral detectives. En dit is wat mij betreft de beste. Qua materiaal zo eenvoudig; niets meer dan een kaart, een kran, een telefoonboek en een caseboek. Maar een beter breinbreker ga je niet vinden. Zelfs als je alle aanwijzingen zou nagaan, heb je nog het antwoord niet kant-en-klaar. Je moet echt zelf 'jouw grijze cellen' aan het werk zetten om de juiste stukjes informatie aan elkaar te knopen. Wij onderbreken het spel wel eens met een maaltijd en blijven dan gewoon door discussiëren over de zaak. Solo kan trouwens ook, maar gezien de moeilijkheidsgraad heb ik graag sparringspartners. Ik vind het zelf fijn dat we er soms gewoon niet uitkomen en het beter dan dan Sherlock zelf is me überhaupt nog nooit gelukt. Dus je moet echt van een breinbreker houden, maar dan is het een topper.
Deze specifiek uit de reeks (want gelukkig zijn er 4 boxen) voegt een extra kaart toe van een landhuis en benut deze op nieuwe manieren. Routes zijn hier belangrijker dan in de andere boxen.
