Spin Master Games - Escape Room The Game Welcome to Funland Expansion Pack

These games are expansion games to the original. The box for inserting the codes is great fun and makes it a little easier than other brands of escape games I have played. Played this with 4 people and everyone felt included. Great to have multiple thinkers at the table but this is also great for a rainy day on your own!

The puzzles were challenging, the story was a little creepy but not nightmare-inducing, and it flowed very well. The story was good, we needed a couple of clues, but that was good. You need to struggle a little bit, or it's too easy, in my opinion. We thoroughly enjoyed this expansion, and look forward to many more!

We played Welcome to Funland a while back--maybe a month ago--and I've been trying to find a way to describe it ever since. It was a fun game, and we certainly enjoyed our time together playing it, but something about the game is preventing me from giving it a rave review, and I don't know what it is. That bothers me. Two of the puzzles weren't all that great (one in Part 1 and another in Part 2), but overall the puzzles in the game weren't bad. None of them were stand-outs where you'd say, "Wow, that was pretty clever," but they were engaging and required a bit of thought. Part 3 was ridiculously anti-climactic and easy, especially for a Level 3.5 game. Anyway, rather than analyze this to death, let's just say that Welcome to Funland is an enjoyable way to spend time with family & friends that requires a bit of thought to complete (at least in Parts 1 & 2). It may not "wow" you (and then again, maybe it will), but you won't regret the experience either way.

Our family has the original edition (which we loved playing) and these expansion packs are just as good. A challenge that takes several people thinking in different ways to all come together and solve the mystery. We hope Spin Master will continue to produce expansion packs.

After completing the games in the original Escape Room box, this was one a disappointment. Priced too high, but more importantly, the clues and progression of the game felt forced. There was no natural sequence or rationale behind a lot of the solving, and we found that we needed to use the hints because nothing in the game felt connected. Not nearly as good as the original.

This was a really great expansion! It was well put together and had good puzzles with hands on solving. The price is on the high side but this expansion hasn't been fully released yet. The price will mostly be around $10 once it is fully released in June.

Our whole family had hours of Escape Room fun at my husband's 70th birthday party. Everyone was engrossed from the 12 yr. old up to the 70 yr. old.

Welcome to Funland was a good time. I agree with the sentiment of the other reviewers, ~$17 for a single game is a bit on the pricey side.Some things I wanted to add in terms of what's required from the original game:-You need the timer/code apparatus with all 16 keys from the original game-You would want the hint decoder from the original game (new hints are provided)-This particular expansion also wants you to use the shoe string from one of the games from the originalIn terms of the experience itself. It was enjoyable but didn't blow me away. Some of the intended answers to the puzzles were fairly obscure (not in the greatest way), but the hint cards make some of the more confusing ones significantly more clear. I did not like one particularly confusing element of part 3 where it's unclear how to interpret one component which led to us entering in the wrong code several times before luckily guessing the correct way with 20 seconds to spare. I could go into details on what I liked I didn't, but you're probably better off playing the game spoiler-free and judging it for yourself ;) If you liked the puzzles from the original big box, you will probably like this expansion.I would think these expansions would be fairly priced in the $10-15 range. When they initially showed up on Amazon at $20+ that's just too high.
