UNSOLVED CASE FILES | Honey The Bunny - A Family-Friendly Mystery Case to Solve

My daughter loves mystery everything—shows, movies, books. She loves Encyclopedia Brown and will turn pretty much every run-of-the-mill unknown into something that needs to be investigated. So when I saw this, I thought she would like it, but there’s always the risk of parental fails when it comes to picking out gifts for tweens. It was not a fail—she absolutely LOVED it. Her enthusiasm was at a 10 the whole time. For context, there is a lot of reading involved in solving the mystery and she’s an avid reader and a highly observant person, so if your potential recipient if this gift is like that, this may be a great gift. This took us about 2 hours to solve working with 2 adults and a 10 yo. My 7yo started working on it with us. She is a big reader, but not as much of a mystery fanatic. She was interested for the first half hour, but fell asleep about half way through solving it. Overall, great gift! Totally worth the price. Way more fun and interactive than going to a movie, especially for a kid who loves conversation.

This is such a cleverly-designed and interesting game. We played with our kids aged 11, 15, and 18, and there was enough to work on to keep everyone engaged and participating. We loved that the mystery is kid-friendly with no gore or murder, but the problem-solving is challenging enough for teens and adults too. Such a fun game! We’ll be watching for more of these "family case" versions to come out.

So much detail and photos included in the pack. My 9 year old needed a little help but loved feeling like a detective to find Honey the bunny.

I bought this for my 12 year old daughter to do with me during the holidays. She loves reading crime books so I thought this would be a great game to try, and specifically chose this one as it is child friendly as it’s about a rabbit getting stolen. The whole family loved it! It took us just over an hour to work through it all but it was very fun and rewarding. We are now looking for another one to solve.

We had a great time solving this! I will say we started off with 8 and 9 year old boys who lost interest pretty quickly, however the 12 yr old boy and 11 yr old girl stuck it out and were great investigators! The case file was well constructed and it was more than just solving one mystery which made it last longer and was more challenging…I’d recommend for any family wanting to spend time together and not in front of any electronics!
