Deckscape: Behind the Curtain review

Deckscape: Behind the Curtain was a fun experience. I've played a few of the Deckscape games now, and I'm a big fan of the series. What I really appreciate about this one is that it feels like the designers are constantly innovating and finding new ways to use the cards to create engaging puzzles. There were a couple of surprises in this game that I hadn't seen in other Deckscape games before. We really enjoyed the theme and it was great to feel like we were actually exploring a room.

I would say that some of the puzzles can be a bit tricky, and we definitely had to use the hint cards a few times. One of the puzzles in the dressing room was particularly confusing, and we ended up having to look at the hint to figure out how to proceed. But even with the help of the hints, we still enjoyed the experience. We managed to finish the game in about an hour, which is a pretty good time for a Deckscape game.

Overall, I would definitely recommend Deckscape: Behind the Curtain to anyone who enjoys escape room games or puzzle games. It's a fun, challenging, and engaging experience.
