The Jules Verne angle really shows in the little brass details and engraved plates, and figuring out the final lock took me the better part of an evening. It's the closest thing to a pocket-sized escape room I've tried, and I passed it to my brother the next day.

The little brass compass detail on the lid genuinely stumped me for a good ten minutes. Everything fits together beautifully once you figure out the trick, though the last lock felt a touch fiddly with my larger fingers. Solid way to kill an evening.

Took me and my wife about an hour to crack, and the little brass dial mechanism near the end genuinely stumped us both. The wood feels solid in hand, though one of the sliding panels is a touch stiff. Fun gift for anyone who likes escape rooms.
