Why the sample is free

A puzzle kit is hard to judge from a cover. The sample lets you print the actual pages, check the reading level and see how your group reacts before spending €9.90.

It is a real part of the game: puzzles 1 and 2 are two of the eight puzzles in the kit. If you later buy the full game, the sample pages are already printed and ready.

The sample is for personal use. Please do not resell it or add it to another product.
