Ear: Goonies

The Goonies still never say die, even though there will likely never be a sequel. Now The Op has released a new board game, “The Goonies: Escape with One-Eyed Willy’s Rich Stuff.”

It’s part of The Op’s at-home escape room Coded Chronicles series, “where players are guided to unlock clues and solve puzzles by a unique code-revealing mechanic.”

Here’s the synopsis: “… Players (go) on an epic adventure through the trap-filled caverns of Astoria, Oregon. Using the treasure hunting skills of Mikey, Brand, Mouth, Data, Andy, Stef, Chunk and Sloth, players will navigate their way to finding One-Eyed Willy’s rich stuff! Can you get the gang to the Inferno, nab the treasure and get to freedom, all while staying one step ahead of the nefarious Fratelli family?”

The game takes two-plus hours to play, just a bit longer than the movie takes to run. Might as well make it a twofer, and do both.
