Was our first room of the day as a team, communication goes a long way. We managed to escape in the nick of time!! Despite being a bigger group, we weren’t too observant, there was a few things we got stuck on because we didnt check all of our surroundings, when asking for a clue it was mostly pointing out something we missed haha. Overall, it was really immersive and it was one of my favourites of the day!!

We went back to Fox in a Box to tackle ‘Bunker’, a challenging Cold War experience. Theming was great, as is the case with all Fox in a Box rooms, and the puzzles were diverse and tricky! Loved the props and flow of the game throughout. They say it’s their toughest room — it’s worth taking the challenge.
Gameplay
Puzzles flowed well through the room — only a few minor prop/puzzle pieces slightly disrupted the immersion, but nothing major. Puzzles varied in difficulty and were fun!
Atmosphere
Great rooms, more of a minimal design as compared to their other rooms but it makes sense based on the theming.
Customer service
GM was great — Jupiter asked how we wanted to play the room, and whether we would like prompts if falling behind time.

At the time of this review, I’ve done 20 escape rooms. Bunker was the most unforgiving & difficult room I’ve done so far. The first room has so much information available to you when you start that it took the two of us our first 10 minutes to discover a starting point. So many things are also arguably very well hidden that it’s also very easy to miss things. One puzzle in the room also includes arguably breaking usual escape room conventions by disassembling something, and I thought it was unfair, if this was implemented differently (and was doable by someone with nails), and/or had a ‘open me’ or something like that instead would be a whole lot better.
Gameplay
So much information all at once, quite difficult and unforgiving about where to start, very tricky with only 2 players.
Atmosphere
Atmosphere was good! Good vibes, some props felt dated, but they worked for the time period of the room. I loved the ceiling mesh.

One of the first rooms we didn’t make it out of, had a great theme, found some puzzles hard to link together!

Bit of a let down once you have done the other fox in the box rooms.

Enjoyed it but definitely harder than I first thought! Only got out with 15 seconds remaining but we did it!
