Considering it arrives in only a regular-sized envelope, there's a lot of content crammed into this pirate-themed adventure. In addition to the selection of printed matter and an attractive physical component, the game also employs some excellent technical integration which provides seamless and engaging interactions with various virtual characters in the game. The use of SMS, email, and various websites enrich the paper components provided and elevate the game to much more of a story/experience, rather than a simple set of themed puzzles.

My main criticism would be somewhat of an over-use of piratical tropes (e.g. "The Pirate's Secret Code" or "X marks the spot"), which makes the solution to a handful of the puzzles somewhat predictable. But overall, these are minor niggles, and they are at least completely thematically appropriate!

Like other games by the maker, this is a really nicely put together low-key game with subtle tech behind the scenes that makes the interactions feel nicely "naturalistic".

We waited a long time to play Madok’s Lost Treasure (and just as long to review it), and boy was it worth the wait! We loved everything about it, and finishing it was bittersweet. We were happy to complete our journey, but sad that it had to end.
I am a huge proponent of game designers packing a little less into their games, but really getting what’s in there right. It felt like Society of Curiosities was coming from a similar school of thought. Madok’s Lost Treasure didn’t have a ton of components, but everything that we received in the mail looked and felt right. When we interacted with digital components, they looked and felt natural. This is rare. Usually there’s some junky afterthought prop or a website that can’t even pass as a parody of a website.

This opening adventure from Society of Curiosities is one of the most immersive and satisfying escape games I’ve played. A great deal of care has been taken to make sure that you feel like an adventurer every step of the way.

Playing through Madok’s Lost Treasure, you don’t feel like you’re just solving puzzles. You feel like you’re taking part in a huge discovery, and the interactions with your ‘team’ at the Society only strengthen this.

I finished the mission invigorated and hungry for more adventure!

Have you noticed the ERA team writes a lot of preamble in our reviews? “Why so? Doesn’t that take more time and effort?!” you ask. Yes… yes it does. We’ve always believed it’s important to provide as much information about our team, the company we’re interacting with, and anything else of particular interest leading up to the review itself… the better we get at sharing the context of a review, the better you (our amazing followers), can gain from the review itself

This game was something new and exciting and is on my shortlist of favorites for the year; I can’t recommend it enough!
