Know before you print

Is this your kind of adventure?

01

Who it suits

Families and private Christmas gatherings with 2–6 players per team and a suggested reading age of 10+. Younger children may enjoy joining an adult, but the clues are written for confident readers.

02

What to prepare

Print eight essential pages on Letter or A4 paper, single-sided. Set out pencils and scrap paper. The separate hint guide can stay on a screen, or you can print it and keep it apart from the clues.

03

What you will do

Follow the post office records, compare the clues and find the code that completes the delivery. All the information is in the game, so you do not need trivia knowledge or Christmas props.

A little planning goes a long way

A game between the festivities.

Choose a moment when your group can gather around the evidence. The 25–45 minute playing time is estimated, not measured with representative groups. For a larger private gathering, print another set and divide into teams.

A different group?

Prefer an everyday story? The Birthday Cake Caper also works for a family puzzle night, at a suggested age of 8+.

What exactly is in the download?

The full kit includes the game in Letter and A4, a separate five-page guide with staged hints and full answers, an optional offline browser hint checker, a start guide, and an invitation/certificate page. Print one paper size. The full product page gives the exact page count.

Can we play without a game master or phone?

Yes. The story and instructions guide you. Use the PDF hint guide when you get stuck; the browser checker is optional. Adults should prepare the printed pages and help younger readers.
