From the very start, the onboarding was highly detailed. Wolf Escape Games walked us through a full checklist to ensure our Wi-Fi connection was solid, ensuring the whole group was connected properly and even running audio tests to make sure everyone could hear.
At its core, The Pharaoh’s Tomb is a point and click adventure, but it is so much more. The art and graphics were beautiful, the cut scenes felt like they came from a movie, the voice actors were professional, and the music was perfectly crafted. All of this elevates the game from a typical puzzle game to an interactive story. One feature that Wolf Escape Games does well is the shared backpack feature. Any relevant and key pieces of information that is encountered along the way pops up in the backpack so that the whole team can review the information independently.
What really makes this game shine though is their attention to detail. The sound effects that were added to some of the minor details, a magnifying glass that allows you to take a closer look at items but also helps zoom in on items when you are sharing your screen. And on top of that, they did their homework, as we had an Egyptian knowledge buff who recognized so much as we went through it.

The game had a mix of visual, logic and deduction type puzzles. Something new that was included in this game was what Wolf Escape Games calls Genius Badges. The Genius Badges are earned when you complete a puzzle without using any hints. This was a neat little challenge for us but also allowed us to see what kind of puzzles we excel at and what kind of puzzles were in the game. Their puzzle design is also spot-on, with most puzzles solvable entirely using what is found in the backpack. That means you are not at the mercy of whoever is controlling the screen, which helps every player feel involved in the experience.

Wolf Escape Games brings the whole package with "The Pharaoh’s Tomb". Every element is perfectly considered and placed. The artwork, design, puzzles, music and experience feel meticulously crafted to not just bring you a game but create a completely immersive adventure that feels movie-esque and where you get to be a key player in it. We played with three players, but the recommended six could work well and with a game this impressive, you will definitely want to share it with as many people as you can.
