Read the full game description

EXIT: The Game – Advent Calendar: The Silent Storm turns an oversized Advent calendar into a twenty-four-part escape-room story. A violent storm locks a chief toymaker inside Santa’s suddenly silent workshop. Each session begins with a short passage in the story book and a newly opened door containing cards, objects, or a scene to examine. Players search for connections, manipulate components, and derive a three-digit code. The decoder confirms the solution and reveals which numbered door should be opened next, so the route through the calendar is itself part of the mystery. Every riddle is designed as a compact daily episode of roughly ten to fifteen minutes, although a group can combine several in one sitting. Hints and solutions keep the story moving without requiring outside knowledge. Like most EXIT experiences, components may be folded, marked, or cut and the campaign is intended for one play. Solo investigators and cooperative groups share the same spoiler-sensitive holiday adventure.
