Charlie’s World Tour puzzle advent calendar with 24 envelopes

About this product

Hidden Games made this calendar of 24 envelopes of puzzles, one to open each day until Christmas. The theme is a trip around the world with Professor Charlie, told in 24 episodes. It is made of paper, needs no assembly and is meant for ages 14 and over.

The listing calls it a family game for indoor play and names problem-solving and logical thinking as the skills involved. The description gives 1 to 6 players and 1.5 to 2.5 hours of play, while the specifications say 4 players and 3 hours, so treat both as rough. The box is 24 x 3.8 x 34.3 cm and weighs 503 g.

What to use it for

Open one envelope a day through December and solve that day’s puzzles at a table, alone or with others. The listing marks it for indoor play only.

Care and safety

Keep the envelopes sealed and dry until their day, and store the cards and paper pieces flat in the box after each session.
