From our vantage point, the biggest opportunity for Outside the Box to elevate their style would be to integrate the puzzles not only into the set, but also into the story. As it was, the puzzle looked good within the environment, but didn&#8217;t usually carry much meaning. If Outside the Box can figure out how to do this, they will be a real force. As it is, <em>The Body Shop<\/em> was already fantastic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re in the Boston area Webster, Massachusetts is a bit of a drive&#8230; but it really is worth it, especially if you have a dark sense of humor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"who-is-this-for\">Who is this for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Adventure seekers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Story seekers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Puzzle lovers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scenery snobs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>People with a sense of humor<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Players with at least some experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Players who don&#8217;t need to be a part of every puzzle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-play\">Why play?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Hilarious and nuanced storytelling <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A strong and unique set<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Great tangible interactions <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"story\">Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It was late at night and someone had placed an order for immediate delivery from internet retail giant Conga.

This became a bit tedious and distracted from the detailed environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2796&nbsp;It wasn&#8217;t always apparent whether we had enough information to work on a puzzle.
