Tabletop Games
Gather round - while we don't have every game ever published or created, and we don't even have every category of games that exist, we DO have an exquisite collection of co-operative, mystery, clue-gathering and immersive games which often pit the players against the game, not each other.
There are simple-to-learn games which can be picked up and played in an hour (some even played several times!) to intricate games that require more time and attention - and a lot have a tutorial scenario in the box to help with getting into the game.
Some of our more complex games are asymmetrical - that is, players have different and distinct roles in the game - often with different objectives and winning strategies. Great for teams to play repeatedly switching roles to discover hidden talents or powers.
Immersive Role Playing
Once you come through the veil into Conundrum House, you are immersed into imaginative worlds of role-playing and discovery! We all know how to play - after all, that is how children learn and discover, and we were all like that, at one point. At Conundrum House gatherings we re-connect and re-discover access to play! And we all STILL have capacity for PLAY!
Unidragon Jigsaw Puzzles
For connoisseurs of jigsaw puzzles, or even if you just delight in colorful, unique and intricate wooden puzzles - we have a collection of Unidragon Puzzles that will astound your senses.
Alexa Media Room
We live in a modern world, and some of the modern marvels may just be a trifle esoteric for some - and at Conundrum House, we do the technological wizardry to setup the ideal environment for Alexa games so you don't have to! The audio immersion in our Alexa room is stellar, and the atmosphere created by the various Alexa games we offer ranges from spooky to chilling to frightening to haunting. Come play and be an ear-witness as you unravel the story...
Mystery Jigsaw Puzzles
Story Time - with a puzzling end! These come with a short story and a mystery or murder to solve - and the puzzle holds the clues to the mystery! 500, 2x500, or 1000 piece puzzles. Fun for groups to tackle, even when not everyone is into jigsaws.
