Neil Patrick Harris’ Beloved Puzzle Box Board Game Receives a Follow-Up

Neil Patrick Harris–yes, the actor–released Box One, a board game designed for solo players, at the tail end of 2020. The game earned rave reviews thanks to its premium design and mind-bending puzzles, and now you can officially dive into its sequel, Box Two. Offering another adventure filled with puzzles, challenges, and riddles, it’s an excellent choice for anyone seeking a solo board game that’ll put their problem-solving skills to the test. You can grab it now for $60 at Amazon.

Box Two is said to be even more elaborate than Box One, with multiple layers to each of its challenges. You’ll find a bunch of premium physical objects inside the box–such as a key, coin, and other handheld puzzles–and you’ll need to navigate a series of riddles to unlock their hidden meaning. It’ll take around two hours to finish the escape-style game.

It’s best to go into the game with as little knowledge as possible to prevent spoilers. But if you’re a fan of brainteasers, puzzles, and escape rooms, just know you’ll find much to love about this unique adventure.

There’s also no need to have played Box One, as the games are entirely separate and require no previous knowledge of the series.

$29.49 (was $35)
