Box One Presented By Neil Patrick Harris Game

A: RobMo - You can most certainly finish the game in an hour. I finished it in about two hours. If you are a good puzzler there is nothing that requires you to wait the 24 hours. All of the things that happen after the 24 hours are interesting, but you literally only get one piece of information that you cannot get any other way, and that one piece of information can very easily be back-solved.

A: Took me 2 hours. And I really took my time, went slow and enjoyed every second of it. (I didn't want to google or ask for help on any of the stuff, So I just sat there and thought)

A: On day one, I took an hour or two. On day two, I finished the game in an hour or so.

A: The '24 hour wait time' mentioned above is a bit of a red herring and you don't actually have to wait 24 hours. There's a way to shorten that time without breaking the game.

A: I spent about an hour or so on it, but I'm a pretty hardcore puzzler and know a lot of trivia. It could take a little longer if you need to research and such.

A: Well... it depends. If you play it the right way it will guaranteed take over a day. If you are good at puzzles and don't mind effectively breaking the game, you can solve it very very quickly by brute force. Roughly 45 minutes maybe, with no wait time required. Solving it the "correct" way without sequence breaks, I'd say maybe 4 hours (not including the forced 24 wait time)

A: If SJenks actually finished the game, they would know it is not possible to complete in an hour. Anymore said would be spoilers.

A: When you complete the game you get access to a video that tells you how to reset the game to the beginning

A: I'm going to say this is a one and done kind of deal. Once you figure out all the codes and stuff then you'll already know where to look/how to find them/what they are the next time you play. Takes the whole discovery and reaction part of the game away.

A: One time Play Through. However you can box it all back up and share with a friend. I would however buy them a copy and have them go through the experience from a fresh new box.

A: You are done, but it is possible to reset to share with a friend.

A: I played this with my wife in the next room. Without giving anything away, even though she was in the next room, I had to take extra precaution not to reveal anything audibly as I played through this game. She questioned some odd behavior of mine that I had to make excuses for. I look forward to seeing her reactions when she gets a chance to try. Nothing inappropriate comes to mind, for 11-year olds. You are definitely allowed (almost encouraged) to look up trivia questions online, for questions that might not make sense to him/her.

A: You can definitely reset it, easily. However, my husband and I played together and it was just fine!

A: Yep, you can reset it and have your spouse play later! You can technically play together, but it's designed for one at a time. Nothing inappropriate for 11 year old, but they might need a little bit of help along the way!

A: You can easily pick it back up. It took me 3 days because I had things going on where I had to stop.

A: You can set it aside and continue on another day.

A: My husband and I played with our kids (ages 9, 11 and 14). We bought it from the original retailer though, not at this inflated price.

A: It is meant for one player, although I think it could be played with two people. I would not recommend it for more than that. The game can be played and then reset for the next person.

A: Yes, the internet is required to play. Portions of the experience require access to a website.

A: All copies are the same. My partner and I both played it at the same time (two separate boxes, in different rooms), but when comparing notes, all questions, answers, puzzles, and solves were the same on both games.

A: It can be reset at the end for other people.

A: Set your browser to use english US as its language. Been a big headache for me as well.
