This room really makes you feel like youβre in a heist movie! Some very unique elements and loved the incorporation of art and puzzles. Several cool surprise moments. Would definitely recommend for all.

Excellent props and build quality, great sequence with a novel first act. Beginner friendly while still having plenty to chew on for more experienced puzzlers, along with a great variety of puzzles testing different skills.

The final prop allowing the "win condition" didn't activate, but that may have been user error on our part. One puzzle was slightly misaligned which led to a wrong answer, but GM promptly corrected it and put us on the right track.

This was a lot of fun, though out of their three current rooms is the most standard/typical of all of them. Heists (and bunkers) are kind of staples of escape rooms and this one fits the mold. Some of the puzzles are more unique than a standard Heist room which made it more interesting. Some required more of an artistic eye than a logical one to solve. There were a few times we felt stuck in this room, not because we didn't know what to do but just weren't sure how to do it. A couple members of our team saved us on those puzzles. The benefits of having a team with diverse skill sets.

This was my favorite game at this location. The flow was fantastic and the puzzles were all my favorite types of puzzles. This room felt like it was designed with me in mind!

What a fun layout and experience. Always something to work on and very cleverly done all around.

A very fun and well put together heist room. I loved how the gameplay (puzzles) flowed with having many βchoose you own adventureβ part and some linear parts. The set, while simplistic in some places was well dressed and lit providing a believable museum/art gallery Where I think this game suffers is in a logistical story narrative. My least favorite thing in escape rooms is when the reason for a puzzle existing is βbecause escape roomβ. For example, at the start of the game you are told you must prepare for the heist by gathering tools in your hideout. An interesting premise but after some thought I immediately asked myself, βwhy canβt we (the thieves) access our own tools from the get-go.β Feeling as though the puzzles in place to get these tools were placed to add bulk in the puzzle department. This was not the sole example, later I thought the same thing in regard to (almost ) every art instillation in the museum having a dedicated safe/lock. Overall βThe Heistβ is a great heist room with great puzzles, though if you come for the story (which few do) you may leave asking for more. I cant wait to come back to try their other rooms!

Our team of five had a lot of fun with this room that was clearly designed with thought and crafted with care. It hit all the right dramatic beats for a βheistβ and contained very nice wow moments that could be shared by most or all of the players. Enough to do for five, with intuitive flow for what to do. Our team struggled with two puzzles, one a bit process-y and a cekestial one where the GM (not one of the owners) seemed to not be responsive for a few minutes despite us asking for a nudge multiple times. These lower notes did not mar the experience and the fun final act - I would definitely take another group here!

Never been more tricked by a room. Multiple times. But in the best way possible. I consider this to be Red Foxβs hidden gem. Obviously the Body Shop is their standout, and the U Boat has a lot of popularity, but this one seems to go more unnoticed and I think it sits right behind Body Shop in quality. Multiple well themed rooms with some really clever elements. This game is a blast.
Thereβs actual art in the museum.

Objective was always clear, even if not super integrated in the puzzles.

Solid room but they gave way too many unprompted hints, even though we were flying through it

βWe loved Red Foxβs The Heist. It was quirky, unique, and loaded with great puzzles. β
