A sea monster is spreading fear and terror in a Scottish village. It's not just master detective Sherlock Holmes and his sidekick Dr Watson who are getting excited, but me too. In the new escape room book, you puzzle your way through the Advent season and unravel the mystery.

I have discovered my personal gold standard when it comes to advent calendars. The 24 Days Escape books from Topp Verlag had been on my wish list for a while. But it was only this year that I dared to try the latest title "Sherlock Holmes and the Scottish Sea Monster". Catchy, isn't it? Of course, I was still a little early with it, but I finally had to find out whether the concept was worth a recommendation. The answer? Yes, absolutely!

The book contains 24 puzzles to guide you through the Advent season. One for each day. With the help of the puzzles, you will finally solve the mystery of the Scottish sea monster that is keeping the villagers on their toes. The concept is also ideal for joint puzzles. Or as a last-minute Advent calendar gift. I explain how the whole thing looks and works in the video above.

By the way, I already have the next book ready: "Dracula and the Feast of the Cursed".

As a massive Disney fan, I see the world through rose-tinted glasses. I worship series from the 90s and consider mermaids a religion. When I’m not dancing in glitter rain, I’m either hanging out at pyjama parties or sitting at my make-up table. P.S. I love you, bacon, garlic and onions. more
