Red Fox Escapes
Escape room
IRL
I’d say this is one of the best rooms we’ve done in the Boston area. We are repeat customers of Red Fox and this room did not disappoint. The theme was immersive and clever, and among the more unique plots we’ve played. The best thing about this room is the sheer number of puzzles available and relatively non-linear gameplay which kept our trio busy the entire time. We also appreciate the adaptive difficulty feature, which is a super smart way to design an escape room. THANK YOU, Liliana for the great customer service and for allowing us to do the entire room and unlocking all of the puzzles despite our small group size. We normally do not like hints either, but the couple clues given were well timed and just the right amount of nudge so we could finish. As a former Girl Scout I’m not sure how to feel about the gore in the room, but it’s not too horrible unless you are naturally squeamish from fake blood. We are also not a fan of rooms with lots of manual locks, but the handful of locks in this room were well marked and intuitive so you didn’t have to run around putting the key or 4-digit code into every lock hanging in the room. Overall, a great room and a must-do while in Boston!

Immersive, challenging, very story-driven…what’s not to like? This is one of the best rooms we’ve done in terms of having a great story, atmosphere, and lots of puzzles. There was a good variety of puzzles and a good flow, with the puzzles connecting to and moving the story forward. Was told that this was their hardest room - I would say it would probably be hard for a team of beginners to escape, so better for experienced escapers.

This was a fantastic room - the only thing that could make it better is if it lasted longer! The set design and little details were spot on, and there was a nice mix of mechanical/physical, observational, logic and actual puzzles. We love rooms that are non-linear, which allows everyone to work on something at the same time, but it also means that we kind of blew through the first set of challenges and finished the room pretty quickly. GM was friendly and funny - we LOVED the intro/opening that Intrepid uses for all their games, which is one of the most clever and immersive we’ve ever experienced. Overall I think these rooms are very well done, and would look forward to returning if they ever open a hard/difficult room.

Had a fun time escaping from the Prison Heist room. Several interesting and clever puzzles that were different and unique - a good mix of tasks that required logic/math, words, physical dexterity, and observation. The set and production value was pretty good with some tech, but most of the locks were 1st gen and required physical keys. Our family of four likes rooms that are non-linear so that we can all work on several puzzles at once - this room was good for that except there just weren’t enough puzzles to keep us all busy. We escaped with over 25 minutes left so I’d rate this a room on the easier side, and I wouldn’t bring more than four people because of space and not enough to do. This would have been a better room if there were only two of us. I’m rating this 3-stars for the room, but an extra star for the great service when we checked in and from our GM Jax, who was friendly and helpful though we didn’t need any hints. She gave us a bounce back coupon for getting out with over 20 min left, which we always think is a nice way to encourage repeat business.

My family of four enjoyed this room because of the immersive set and familiar storyline. The best escape rooms have multi-step puzzles, which increases the difficulty and extends the play. This room has several puzzles like that, and we thought the flow of the game progressed nicely, but were surprised to get to the end rather quickly. Finishing the room in 26 minutes left us a bit unsatisfied overall even though we liked the room as we played it. That being said, there were several clever and well-thought-out puzzles that we enjoyed and will remember as highlights. Use the Morty weekday coupon to get a great discount on an already well-priced room. I’d say this is worth doing for beginners or a smaller group of 2.
