Escape The Room: Mystery at the Stargazer’s Manor

A Mysterious, Interactive Party Game

The Objective: Spend an evening working with your guests to solve puzzles, unlock hidden clues, and unravel the mystery of the Stargazer’s Manor. Will you and your guests be able to solve the mystery and save the astronomer before time runs out?

The Mystery: It’s 1869 and the town’s well-respected astronomer has not been seen since the untimely passing of his wife. Recently, strange things have been happening at his manor – loud and unfamiliar noises, an unpleasant smell, and smoke billowing from the observatory. It’s up to you and your guests to solve the mystery at the Stargazer’s Manor!

Scene Card
5 Sealed Envelopes
Secret Items (inside the 5 sealed envelopes)
Solution Wheel
Instruction Manual


The Astronomer and his wife lived and worked side by side, as constant companions. Over time she began to grow more and more concerned by the nature of his scientific experiments, which pushed the boundaries of the known universe…until one day, he went too far.	After tragedy struck, the Astronomer was gripped with grief and fired his loyal Caretaker after years of faithful service. Now, left alone in the manor, he’s become a recluse, shrouded in mystery.	The glorious home of the well respected Astronomer and his wife has crumbled with neglect. Faced with growing concerns for the well being of their friend, the Astronomer, the townspeople are unsure of what, if anything, they can do to help him.

Super easy, but the next game in the series is more challenging.

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2017

Style: Stargazer's Manor - Difficulty BEGINNERVerified Purchase

If you are experienced at playing "Escape Room" games, this is going to be way too easy for you. We finished in about 25 minutes. If you have never played an "Escape Room" game, or you have young kids, this might be a fun option for you. We actually started playing these games by doing the second game in the series (Dr. Gravely's), which is much more challenging & takes a lot longer to complete. They really improved their technique for the second game. If you are familiar with how this sort of game works, I recommend skipping this game, but give Gravely's a try. We will look for the next game in the series!

Not "way too easy" as others claim

Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2017

Style: Stargazer's Manor - Difficulty BEGINNERVerified Purchase

I was skeptical about the idea of an escape room in a box but they pulled it off well. Some people are complaining about how you can only play it once but for $12 that's still a great deal. I've gone to physical escape rooms that cost way over $100 total. And with this one you can always give it to a friend afterwards.

As others have mentioned, it is on the easier side but it's not so easy that adults can't enjoy it. I had my college class do this and there were a couple of areas that they got a little tripped up on.

Cursed Dollhouse is amazing!

Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2020

Style: Cursed Dollhouse - Difficulty EXPERTVerified Purchase

We tried the Cursed Dollhouse game and really loved it. At first, I balked at the extra price, but now I understand why it’s pricier than Dr Gravely’s Retreat and Stargazer Manor. It’s an actual buildable dollhouse, and you explore rooms and discover clues one room at a time. There are a lot of props, too, which adds to your set of clues and to the experience. We’ve played Dr Gravely’s Retreat before and liked it, but felt it was pretty easy. This one is a bit harder; we had to use our brains, but didn’t really get stuck too much. This game has a lot more atmosphere, and a good balance between storyline and puzzling. We spent about 4 hours with two people, and didn’t use their hint system. I wish they’d make another! I was so sorry when it was done. Definitely worth the price.

EDIT: We played Stargazer’s Manor a few weeks later. Having heard it was easy, we gave it to our kids (ages 5 & 9). They finished it without help from us in 70 minutes. Very fun and kid-friendly, but quite easy.

More suited for kids. Not a challenge at all.

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2018

Style: Stargazer's Manor - Difficulty BEGINNERVerified Purchase

I love Escape Room games. I have 6 of the Unlock! games and have tried the Exit series and have gone to real life escape rooms. That being said, this one is for kids. It was too easy for 3 adults and was finished in like 40 minutes. Compared to the others I mentioned previously, that are way more challenging, this one was a bit of a let down, to put it mildly. I would not recommend for anyone looking for a challenge. The puzzles were way too easy. I think it is a good game, just know your audience. Otherwise, for adults I would give it 2/5 stars.

Great Family game, but WAY too easy

Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2016

Style: Stargazer's Manor - Difficulty BEGINNERVerified Purchase

I will rate this game in parts as there are several things to consider.

Story:
I story around the game was well written and helped to set the stage for the entire experience. The envelopes lead from one to another and new story elements revealed as the game went on so the story unfolded very nicely at a good pace. This I think made the game despite a crucial flaw.

Component Quality:
Everything in the game was top notch in terms of quality and construction, one minor quibble I have was the gear assembly was VERY loose and had to be held together to work. Everything else from the envelopes to the solution wheel to the different puzzle components were all great quality and worked very well.

Difficulty:
This is where we hit the biggest snag for the game, it was simply way too easy. I was hosting and checking answers for an 11 year old and 13 year old and they steam rolled this game. For 3 players it set a max time of 2.5 hours, we finished the game just shy of 45 minutes. Being lead through the opening puzzle was good and helped us get a feel for the game, but then the puzzles never seemed to get any harder. I did have to give a hint here or there but in the end we spent more time reading the story prompts then solving the puzzles. I know they want the game solvable, but with the option of online hints I don't see why the difficulty couldn't be set higher.

Overall:
In the end the game was worth the money I spent on it, and I would definitely assembly the game to give to family for younger kids to try, but unless the next game is the series ups the difficulty significantly, this may be a one-off game in more ways than one.

Birthday Party Fun!

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2017

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

My 13yr old had an Escape Room birthday party this year, and played this game. There were 7 kids between the ages of 10-14 yrs old. They needed a couple of hints (my husband and I played the game a few days ahead of time so we could help them over any really hard spots), but solved most of the game on their own, and escaped with only a few minutes remaining!

I suggest, like previous commentators, that 5 is probably the maximum number of ppl playing, so that everyone has a chance to get their hands on the puzzles. I made a rule that the solution disk and envelopes had to be passed to the next person to open/use each time they solved a puzzle. That helped keep everyone involved.

This game is harder we thought, than the Stargazer game. It had a wider variety of puzzles, which we liked, but one in particular ripped even though they were trying to be careful. I think the construction of that puzzle is a bit problematic, esp for people like us who like to try to reuse the games when possible.

Fun family game

Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2017

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

We really enjoyed this game. Our family enjoys real escape rooms so we found the clues very linear, but for an evening's fun at home this was great. I was impressed with the help available on the web-site, even though we didn't need help. And I was really pleased at the detailed instructions for re-packaging the the clues so we could pass this game on to be enjoyed by someone else. You can only play this once, so it's nice to be able to share the fun.

Good Game for a Date Night

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 2, 2019

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

A good little escape game. Me and my husband are both escape room fanatics and have played most of the escape games out there. This one was very nice the usual codex format and the envelope system work well.

It is recommended 3 - 5 or 6 - 8 players you get 2 hours for 3 - 5 and 1.5 hours for 6 - 8. However i would say this one is perfectly doable with 2 players. My husband and I completed it in 1 hour 35 mins and this included the optional extra puzzle within.

DO NOT BREAK THE GAME!!! there are certain puzzles within that include rope. I wont spoil it but all i will say is that at no point should any ripping if paper occur to access the contents. You can get them open by unlocking the ropes.

Good little game. I recommend it :)

Good evening's entertainment for older teens and family

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 27, 2017

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

Three hours of entertainment for the family - 2 adults and 2 18 year old teenagers. A couple of the puzzles are very simple and I think it would be better if the makers or even the suppliers put a sheet in with the game indicating which puzzles are the easiest and so suited to young teens of around 13/14.
Realistically, you can only use this once, but compare with the price of going to the cinema or going bowling to a match and it looks like a cheap night's entertainment.
We ignored the time limit and took our leisurely time with it.

The puzzles were intriguing and it was a lot of fun to play

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 4, 2018

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

We bought this game for our New Year's party with family - it was an absolute treat. The puzzles were intriguing and it was a lot of fun to play. It was really something that we all worked together on.

There were some easy puzzles and then some quite tricky puzzles, tricky enough to make sure even the most astute sleuths are challenged. We managed to escape the room in just under an hour. We chose to play the extended game because we were having a lot of fun and managed to complete the extension in about 15 minutes.

It's a shame that you can only play it once but I guess paying £1.75 per person to entertain 8 people for a couple of hours its pretty good value. We'll definitely try the other games in the series.

Fun but very easy

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 10, 2019

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

Four adults played this game. The instructions said we should allow two hours for three to five players. We solved the first portion in 54 minutes. As instructed we reset the clock for 30 minutes to complete the second portion and had finished in six minutes. It was fun, but having done several escape rooms as a family we were a little underwhelmed. It would be better with more physical objects e.g. the keys on the "desk" were a picture of keys. Would it take much more expense for some plastic keys to be in the box? We have repackaged it to allow friendp etc. to play in future.

Would have been great if complete

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 19, 2017

Style: Dr. Gravely's - Difficulty INTERMEDIATEVerified Purchase

I love ThinkFun products and this promised lots of fun. However, one hour in when we still couldn't solve the Alcove, because we were playing with kids we opted for an online hint. Turns out we were missing the piece needed to solve that. So, disappointing as we'd spent a lot of time trying very creative other ways to solve it. Kids felt cheated and have to admit so did we a bit. It's a lot of fun over all and I still have it 3 stars because it was a quality control issue not a design issue. We did manage to escape the room.
