The Cluebox is an interactive wooden puzzle box assembled by hand. It contains a great variety of puzzles, which have to be solved one after the other in order to open all the locks and reach the secret space inside of the box. It's basically an escape room you can hold in your hand!

The sixth edition of Cluebox is the most challenging yet: Sherlock's Camera. As the story goes, an unclaimed parcel dated 1914 was discovered. Upon unwrapping, an object resembling a camera was revealed. However, the camera contained enigmatic symbols and locks instead of the common mechanism. If you can unravel the mystery, you can reveal the identity of Sherlock Holmes' successor!

The brilliant designers at iDventure continue to challenge themselves (and their fans) with new and ever more sophisticated mechanisms in their puzzles. Gears, wheels, sliding panels, keys, marbles and even magnets make Sherlock's Camera the trickiest box they've ever constructed. 

Average playtime is 90-120 minutes but there's no shame if it takes you longer than that. Once you've solved the mystery, follow the reset instructions and pass the puzzle to a curious friend.

The camera-shaped design is what hooked me, and the way each puzzle unlocks the next inside that wooden build kept me engaged for a solid evening. Assembly was straightforward with the instructions, but cracking the final lock to reach the secret compartment felt genuinely rewarding.

Lily ★★★★★

I was skeptical about the assembly time, but the variety of puzzles inside kept me hooked for a whole evening—each lock reveals something cleverer, and the wooden build quality feels solid enough to survive repeated solving. I’ve already hidden a small note inside for my partner to find this weekend

Riley U. ★★★★★

The way the wooden pieces click together as you assemble it is deeply satisfying, and the layered puzzles inside kept me hooked until the final reveal. My favorite moment was when a seemingly random marking on one side turned out to be the key to a later lock. It’s a clever build that rewards patien
