Privacy Policy & Terms of Service

Question 1

What is PostCurious?

Answer

We make narrative tabletop puzzle games! Not quite an escape room, not quite a board game, we make interactive stories told through puzzles, using physical objects and some online components. You can experience these adventures from the comfort of your home as you solve riddles, decipher symbols, and manipulate objects to further unravel the mystery. We also offer consulting and custom design services for tabletop games, escape rooms, special events, and more.

Question 2

What is The Tale of Ord? Will there be a reprint?

Answer

The Tale of Ord was a limited edition game with only 500 copies. It was narrative puzzle adventure told in four packages, each containing various clues such as articles, maps, letters, drawings, unique artifacts, and a mysterious wooden box… Each package had its own conclusion while the overall story developed throughout the entire experience. The Tale of Ord is currently sold out without any plans for a reprint. Please subscribe to our newsletter for updates in case that ever changes.
