Reviews
"I think this might be one of the most gorgeous board games ever published. Bravo!" - Man vs Meeple "Thrilling at an emotional level and instantly generates a reverence and respect that causes you to approach this game from a different angle; this isn't Monopoly, Ticket to Ride, or even Memoir 44. . . if you can get into the mind of the POWs and what they went through, then you will eat this one up. It's beautifully portrayed and it offers genuine atmosphere steeped in a chilling experience." - Charlie Theel, Geek & Sundry "The details are fantastic as you'll crawl through tunnels, clip the outer wire, maybe even steal the German Officer's Staff car and drive out the front gate. The vectors of escape and little touches encountered will vary due to cards drawn and situations in play. It makes for an exciting story as you scale down a couple of walls and gun it full speed with guards in hot pursuit." - Geek & Sundry ". . . if you can get into the mind of the POWs and what they went through, then you will eat this one up. It's beautifully portrayed and it offers genuine atmosphere steeped in a chilling experience." - Geek & Sundry "Everything about the production is absolutely amazing. I think Osprey Games hit it out of the park with redoing this. The attention to detail is amazing. This is one I really think you should play for yourself and check out. You will be immersed." - The Game Boy Geek "Osprey knows what they're doing when they bring [games] back. The production and thought that went into this is absolutely amazing." - The Game Boy Geek "I recommend Escape from Colditz as an immensely satisfying and immersive experience." - The Board Game Show "We had an immense amount of fun playing this game." - Man vs Meeple "To me what separates this game from others is that while your imagination can run wild playing any board game as you create an image in your head of what you're playing out, someone, or should I say many people have seen the real thing you're picturing." - Geek. Sleep. Rinse. Repeat. "This game is based on real life events and designed in partnership by one of a hand full of people to actually escape the prison Major Pat Reid! Unbelievable story and history all wrapped up in one tabletop experience. So start thinking and planning your every move to even try and escape Castle Colditz!" - theMCGuiRE review "If trying your own luck at the castle sounds like a fun time, then you'll love the board game Escape from Colditz ." - Unbound Worlds "Get that nostalgic feel with beautifully redone components and updated rules." - The Players' Aid "I love the theme and art styling." - Brawlin' Brothers "We played a 5 player game and it took 3 hours to play. Everyone really enjoyed it . . . My other half commented after everyone had gone home that we were far more boisterous than usual and it sounded like we were having a whale of a time." - Lizard Lounge "I'm enamoured by what the product is. For me this is more than just a board game. This is a window into the life of Pat Reid, and the experiences he had during the latter stages of the war." - Alexander, The Players' Aid "Anyone who gets this game is definitely not going to be disappointed in the quality of the content of this game. This game will grab you by the throat! The mechanics, the components, and all the great extras make this game worthy of a place on your game shelf." - Two-Gun Pixie "Everything about Escape from Colditz just oozes quality, from the production values to the historical accuracy and from the nostalgia to the balanced game play." - Gaming Respawn, "I think this might be one of the most gorgeous board games ever published.

I have been looking for this rare HBO series Phillip Marlowe Private Eye for some time but was looking for a brand new sealed copy which is even rarer. Arrived as described and couldn't be happier.
