Do you have Ubongo, Tumult Royale, Imhotep, the nominee for “Spiel des Jahres” or the “Kennerspiel des Jahres” EXIT? You want to learn how to play it but don’t have the time or desire to deal with reading through all the instructions? Well, how about simply having all the rules explained to you via narrated animations? Learn how to set up the game and get started without reading the rules booklet. Learn other KOSMOS games without reading the manuals. Note: This app offers additional features for the well-known games from KOSMOS. Features: *** Animated Tutorial *** With audio narrations and 3D animations, this app explains all the rules for the games in an easy, linear manner that requires little reading - including the variations for all numbers of players - so that you can start playing almost immediately! *** Additional Functions *** For the EXIT games, you will find a timer including an atmospheric soundtrack. For the Adventure Games, you will find a narrated adventure book. For The Crew Mission Deep Sea you will find an atmospheric soundtrack including a special timer. In Ubongo, an animated assistant helps you to find the solution to any of the tasks given in the basic game. Tumult Royale includes a timer that allows you to replace the hourglass included in the game. You can also vary the time allotted for the tax collection phase. ***** Questions, suggestions and feature requests? We look forward to your suggestions! Mail to: apps@kosmos.de *****

Adds to the fun

This app is a fun little addition to the already fun and well designed games. My wife and I enjoy listening to the narration and the atmospheric score that goes with the timer is cool, even if we usually end up muting it out of deference to ADHD. I really wish the app remembered which games we had played. Nothing worse than seeing an EXIT game and being unable to remember whether you had played it before. More than once we’ve sat down to play a new EXIT game I found only to realize we had played it six years ago.

Good but needs a fix

I love playing Exit the game and have done several. The app adds great ambience! However there is a glaring issue. Once we finish the game and get our score, we get a page with three options: Share, Back, and the Home button. There is no way to save our data and score with these options. We can share it (data is not saved), go back and select how many hints we used (data is not saved) or hit the home button in which a screen pops up saying that we won’t be able to save our data if we continue and leave the game. We can choose to go back to the previous screen with the options that get us nowhere. Hmmm. This is a big issue if I want to save my scores in the app along with the games I have already played. Is there anyway I can save my scores?

Hi JeffRader, thanks for your feedback. At the moment it's not yet possible to save your scores, but we're already working on a solution for this. Look out for big changes in the app soon. In the meantime a workaround could be to press the share button and save a screenshot of your score to your device. Your KOSMOS App Team.

I’ve done so many Exit games, and I always use the app to read out the introduction as well as help keep time for our team. We also love the ambience sounds and music it provides! My only complaint (which isn’t even with the app) is that we wish there was a way to tell us which Exit games to do in what order, since many of the continue off previous ones; We just bought them randomly and are only now seeing cool connections back to other stories from the other games!Thank you Kosmos for the INCREDIBLE puzzles you guys put in every single box! It’s given us hours and hours of fun!

Didn’t work for Kidnapped in Fortune City

After pressing the play button for the intro video, nothing happened. I could press pause, but nothing ever started playing. The timer did start. The mini games were…uninteresting. I was hoping for something that would be like anything I’ve experienced in an EXIT game. Nope.Perhaps it will work for other versions of other games. We’ve done almost all the EXIT games save two or three, but this was the first time wi through the atmospheric soundtrack would be nice. That wasn’t even offered for this game versionDisappointing product from a company whose EXIT games have made our pandemic experience much more enjoyable due to the challenging fun for the whole family.
