Emergency Exit Only Board Game

A fast, brain-bending race to escape before the route turns into chaos.

Quick to learn, easy to replay, and packed with clever table talk energy for family game nights.

Work together, stack the route, and decide the exact moment to shout that you're lost.

Product Description

Emergency Exit Only is a fast cooperative puzzle game where players build one shared escape route tile by tile, trying to find the exit before the building layout defeats them. Each round, everyone adds direction tiles to the same pile, memorises the path, and decides whether to keep going or play their Lost tile when they think the route is broken. The route is only revealed at the end, which turns every round into a fun test of memory, teamwork, and spatial thinking. The rules also add FLOOR cards that define how a route is considered lost, and DANGER cards can make the challenge even trickier.

Good to Know

• Everyone works on the same escape route together
• You cannot check the full path until the reveal phase, so memory matters a lot
• The group can get lost through an opposite direction turn, a loop, a dead end, or other active FLOOR-card conditions
• DANGER mode adds extra effects for a tougher challenge, but the rules recommend skipping it for your first game
• In a 23 player game, the first player to 3 points wins; in a 45 player game, the target is 2 points

Care & Maintenance

• Keep tiles and cards dry and store them flat in the box after play
• Avoid bending the tiles so route connections stay easy to read
