I purchased the Treasure Hunt mystery for my 7 year old grandson who was coming to visit; while it was a bit above his ability on his own, we had a great time working on it together. I strung the letters out over the week, and he anxiously awaited each one. The excitement he expressed when he opened the last item (not sure I should reveal it) was over-the-top! It was the highlight of my week!
Loved all the items that came with this mystery. The phone call was excellent and added a whole level of involvement. This mystery was more popular with my grandchildren than the princess one. I as a grandmother will be getting the mysteries again at Christmas time

We bought this as a holiday present for our 9 year old son and he thoroughly enjoyed the challenge! Some things were a bit difficult for him to do on his own so I would definitely advise having a grownup nearby to get them started with each box.
This was purchased for our 10 year old grandson. We live too far away to have been able to do it with him, but our daughter and son-in-law did it with him. They enjoyed it very much. They said the artifacts were high quality and they liked how everything was personalised. They said some of the puzzles were not so hard, and others were challenging, even for the adults helping. This was just right, in my opinion. I ordered all envelopes to come at once and they chose to do a few at a time. They said it was a really fun family activity and would welcome another one. I will be ordering another one for his 11th birthday.
My 6 year old grandson was excited to receive his letters. He understood most and was able to read by himself. Thank you for the parents info. He was a bit afraid of the curse until we explained to him it didn’t pertain to him.
Highly recommend. Fun and well done!
I bought it for my nephews, ages 7 and 8 and they loved this. I did not see the packages first hand but their mom said it was very well done and even has to remind them it wasn't real when they started to get spooked. Definitely a fun gift and money well-spent.
I can only say that my grandson loved each and every package which was mailed to him. He enjoyed the puzzles, the clues, the hints and for an 8 ear old to receive mail was also a treat!
My 8 year old daughter loved the mystery of it all. The physical pieces that go along with the letters really brought it to life! Thanks for creating such an elaborate but accessible adventure!
My grandson couldn’t wait to get the next delivery. He loves solving these mysteries. The canvas bag was a big hit too. I hope you come out with more mysteries to choose.
Got this as a surprise for my nephew. He loved it so much. Very engaging and thoughtful. Many small details
The little girls Birthday was yesterday. She was very excited when she opened the box and started reading about her pirate mystery. I'm always looking for unique gifts for the grandchildren and this idea is definitely not a typical gift for a child. She thought it was the coolest present ever, so I think she going to enjoy the adventure very much.
I had ran the idea past her father before getting it, and since he knows her better than anyone, I think he was more excited about her getting such a cool gift than his daughter.
What a wonderful gift idea to get the young imaginations stirring.
My daughter said their 8 year old son enjoyed the letters and he shared them with the family, neighbor boy and church friends. His dad had to help him work on the decoding and they had fun. The neighbor boy would come over and ask if more pirate letters had arrived. How sweet.
I sent this to my daughter as she saw the letters and what happened at her home. Perhaps she will send a review as well.
Thank you for your fun product!
The kids absolutely loved it! We just ordered another one!
I bought this for my 7 year old grandsons birthday. He loves leggos, puzzles, reading, etc. I was a bit worried it would be too hard for him but he and his Dad did it together and he was SO excited every time he solved one step and went to the next one! I will be ordering another of these for him for Christmas!!
Our ten year old really loved the story, and awaited each installment with excitement. We helped her with some of the clues, but ultimately, she did the majority of the work. She has even shared her excitement about it with some of her friends!
My son got this as a Christmas gift and he absolutely loved it! Every mailing made him drop everything and pore over the contents. The surprise gift at the end was also very exciting!
I ordered this for my nephew who is very bright and curious . He likes to problem solve, and loves to find everything he can about whatever he’s most interested in at the time. He LOVED Spies, Lies, & Serious Bad Guys! He is 9 years old and it was perfect for him!
I ordered two different mysteries for two sets of grandkids for Christmas. They loved them! Looked forward to every clue and were really sad when the mystery was over! One of the kids stalked the mailbox waiting for the next clues! Highly recommend!
Sooooo fun. I will say that some of the clues were difficult even for an adult to crack but my son and I both enjoyed the mind exercise. Loved discovering the mystery of the "WC." Thank you!
My grandniece and grandnephew LOVED this mystery challenge. Fully engaged,
My kids (6yrs and 8yrs) really enjoyed this! Some of the ciphers were a little tough to figure out on their own, so they worked together (and had some help from me). They really enjoyed it and it kept them entertained for the entire week until the next letter arrived.
Really engaging, the right amount of difficulty, and customer service was great when we had some mail issues.
My niece and nephew loved it! They looked forward each week to their installment in the mail. It triggered their curiosity and imagination in so many ways!
My 11yo grandson and 9yo granddaughter loved getting the letters in the mail and the challenge of solving the mystery. They proudly showered me the letters and treasures they received, and I was very impressed by the quality and uniqueness of everything they showed me.
