A Tale to Unlock

Can You Rebuild the Christmas Star Before Santa Is Lost in the Winter Sky?

When the Magical Christmas Star suddenly shatters, the North Pole is thrown into crisis. Without its guiding light, Santa may never find his way home. Hidden pieces of the star are locked away throughout the workshop, each protected by clever riddles, nutcracker disks, reindeer codes, and festive puzzles only you can solve. Piece by piece, you’ll uncover the magic, rebuild the star, and restore the glow that keeps Christmas on course.
Can you reignite the Christmas Star before the night sky goes dark?

Excited to try the kits!!

I ordered a couple of Christmas kits for our two different family gatherings, due to some unexpected circumstances we weren’t able to start the escape room kit for either gathering. I did take the time to print and assemble everything and I am very excited to try the kits when we gather in 2026. I was very impressed with the instructions and the kits themselves, very well done!

This has become an annual tradition for our family on Christmas morning. We've used a MysteryLocks Christmas escape for the past 5 years, I believe. It has held the interest of our children when they were teens on our first escape and now as young adults. It provides a great team work opportunity for us on Christmas day and extends the holiday family time.

Nice game! Colleagues were happy to play!

M
Mrs C.P. (United States)
Really good!

Great fun. A lot of preparation beforehand.

Thanks for the feedback, Mrs Christine! The set-up can be drastically shortened by replacing our themed envelopes with regular ones (less cutting and gluing).

We like to provide everything needed to play a fully themed and immersive game without requiring you to get anything else you already have at home.

Highly recommended!

so much fun. The colours and images are great. Engaging puzzles and a bit tricky, so good for a variety of ages. We have passed it all along to our friends and they will do the same. So cool!

We're so glad you liked it, Tana! We loved designing it, so it makes us so happy to know the game was a hit!

N
Naomi E. (United States)
No good.

Errors in the game. More like school worksheets than an escape room. Too easy for the age range given, children were bored and had to encouraged to get through it. Graphics were appealing, but will use up loads of ink to print

Thanks for your feedback, Naomi! However, we believe there may be some confusion, as our game is definitely not a series of worksheets or anything nearly similar to them. It features 3D paper models and custom-made elements designed to reveal answers in creative ways. The puzzles are deeply connected through both story and artwork, so we kindly disagree with you on this.

Additionally, the game is quite complex and challenging—children cannot solve it on their own, especially those below our suggested age range. We also guarantee there are no errors in the game.

We also reached out to clarify and offer a replacement if needed but received no response. We’re always happy to assist, so feel free to reach out!

Although I had to print & make up the game myself it was of good quality
and the instructions were easy to follow.

This puzzle was more challenging than the Heist. They worked together but never did get it solved. It might be helpful to indicate on the puzzles the level of complexity so people make an appropriate choice when purchasing.

L
Leann w.

I purchased for my 15 and 17 year old. It was a good fit. Not too challenging, but kept them engaged with the variety of puzzles. Set up was easy compared to others I have purchased in the past.

H
Hillary

Excellent game, took about an hour and a half for two adults (some of the clues were challenging but we figured it out!)

R
Rob K. (United States)
Not amazing.

The puzzle with the reindeer names too obtuse. Having a decoder without having to open the hints would have been nice. The snowflake puzzle also seemed to have one mistake. Also, having different sized presents was a stupid idea because you don't need to solve the fifth puzzle in order to identify the sixth and last.

If you'd like help play testing in the future, please let me know.

Thanks for the feedback, Rob! The game is designed for experienced players and puzzle enthusiasts, which is why creating your own decoder is part of the challenge. Having a pre-made decoder would take away from the puzzle-solving experience and impact the flow of the game.

We guarantee there are no errors in the game, and all puzzles must be solved—including the fifth—to progress to the sixth. The goal is to solve, not skip or guess answers. As for the envelope sizes, they vary to optimize printing and reduce ink usage. Let us know if you need any clarifications! :)

C
Cynthia

This was as described. It took a little bit of prep, but worked well for using as part of a holiday celebration. Beautiful graphics!

B

I am thinking of purchasing the Christmas star one, and wanted to know how many pages it is to print as I will need to print them at our local library , and they charge per page. Thank you!

MysteryLocks Printable Escape Rooms

Hi Rachel!

Great question! The Christmas Star, as the version in the photos, has 19 pages to print. But if you want to reduce printing, you can replace the included printable envelopes with regular ones and print only 11 pages.

That includes everything from the 3D paper box, story cards, and clues to solve the puzzles.

Hope that helps! If you have any other questions, let us know! Were here to help. :)
