In the late 80s, two 10-year-olds met and bonded over their shared love of the sci-fi comic series Super Star Cadets. As kids in foster care, Pat and Gretta’s lives were often difficult, but their friendship blossomed as they escaped into the cadets’ daring adventures: they pretended to be Super Star Cadets, exploring in the woods and along back-roads, collecting samples and keeping an audio diary of their adventures on a cassette tape.
And then, on a warm day in September 1987, Pat disappeared into the forest.
Gretta is still searching for Pat, all these decades later. She’s gathered all the clues, like the Super Star Cadet she always wanted to be. But she needs your help to find Cadet Turner.
Will you answer her call?
The Disappearance of Cadet Turner is suitable for adventurers ages 8 to 108, and makes a great activity for a solo adventurer, a family, or a school or camp group. It’s perfect for fans of 80s nostalgia, classic science fiction, comics, and the exhilarating childhood feeling of running free on long afternoons.

Bought for my niece, she loved it - real sense of intrigue & adventure & drawn into the whole story. She had to fight off the adults who wanted to play along & get stuck into the story
Great game. Provided a fun night of family gaming.
Bought as gift for niece. They loved it and shared the experience with their best friend to do together.
Just an update, though my first package was lost in transit, they did replace it and even included a challenge coin to make up for the delay. Thank you for your customer service!
Intended as surprise gift for a friend, months before her birthday, I try to always give unique and unexpected gifts to my best friends and this seemed perfect. It was an amazing experience to share with my friend and an unforgettable gift for her. Absolute perfection!
My friend works within the comic industry professionally and is busy with commissions, she also regularly receives letters from crowdfunding campaigns about possible involvement, and I didn't want the initial letter to get lost in the shuffle and she lives with her sister so I let her in on the surprise so she checked their mail everyday to make sure my friend received it.
This escaped her sister's detection since my friend briefly skimmed it but was interested enough to take it to her office, where she stored it for two weeks before tossing it into a waste bin, having not received a follow-up email from whoever sent it. It was that authentic! I received a call one morning and my friend wondered if I knew why her sister burst into her room at midnight holding the letter that she refused to answer questions about but insisted she follow up on. I refused to answer questions and she dove into solving the puzzle updating me when she made progress and especially when she was frustrated! The entire experience has built wonderful memories, inside jokes, and is a gift she treasures.
