Murders at Karlov Manor/Puzzles
Across Murders at Karlov Manor cards and products, players can uncover clues to something bigger — with a final reward for the most assiduous of sleuths out there. Each product in the set contains a puzzle to be solved; some puzzle components are only found within the physical products, but others encourage players to continue the discovery online with web-based puzzles added regularly throughout the season.
Description
There is one overarching puzzle — across all products and online — that gives players who crave a true challenge the opportunity to solve a greater mystery; however, there are still 12 individual puzzles that are self-contained and are just as satisfying cases to crack.[1] Once the final puzzle has been solved, it unlocks information about the future of Magic.[2]
The project was overseen by Mark Gottlieb and Mark Rosewater was also on the puzzle building team.[3]
