What is an escape room?

Escape rooms are a theatrical experience in which you and your party will be locked in a room. You'll have to use various elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles, find clues, and escape the room within 60 minutes. All of our rooms have different themes and difficulties: to find your favorite, just click "Our Rooms".

At Fox in a Box, we offer a private escape room experience. This means that your room is reserved for your party and your party alone, no matter how many people are in your group. Not looking for new friends? We understand: we'll never pair you up with strangers.

How many rooms do you have?

We have 3 action-packed rooms:
- Mission Bunker (2-6 participants)
- Prison Break (2-8 participants)
- Zodiac Killer [18+] (2-6 participants)

We can host up to 20-22 participants in one time slot.

How do I make a reservation?

You're just a few clicks away from making your reservation! On our website, you'll find all the information you'll need about our rooms. Once you're ready, head on over to our "BOOK NOW" tab to make your reservation. If you have any questions about reservations, please feel free to contact us at info@foxinaboxseattle.com, or call us at (206) 495-3081 during our open hours.

After you make a booking, you'll receive an email confirmation and receipt. If you do not receive these two emails, please make sure to contact us, as you may have not fully reserved the room. Remember, a game is not guaranteed until you receive the confirmation email and the receipt.

For same-day bookings: You will need to call us at (206) 495-3081 to check availability and make your reservation.

How much does it cost?

Price varies based on the number of participants. To check the price for your party, go to "BOOK NOW", choose your room, date, and time, and input the number of players in your party. Without submitting any personal information, you'll be able to see the price for the selected time. Please be aware that our rooms are live events, and once your booking is confirmed, refunds and cancellations are not accepted.

Keep an eye out on our social media for discounts and offers during holidays and special events. Can't get enough of us? Drop a follow on our "social media!"

Are you a student or military member? Give us a call before you make your booking: we've got a special 10% discount just for you. Don't forget your student or military ID!

Team Sizes

The minimum group size is 2 people per room. Many of our puzzles in each room require a minimum of 2 people in order to solve them.

The maximum group size is based on the room:
- Nuclear Missile Bunker (6 participants)
- Prison Break (8 participants)
- Zodiac Killer[18+] (6 participants)

Due to safety reasons, these are hard limits. If you need to make a reservation for more participants than one room can hold, you can use the "MULTIPLE BOOKING" option and reserve multiple rooms. This allows you to select more than one room at a time, and also allows you to enter in your reservation information only once. This makes the reservation process for more than one room easier and faster.

Canceling, rescheduling, & refunds

Our escape rooms are all live events, so please note that all sales are FINAL. If you're not certain how many people will be joining your party, we suggest that you book for the minimum number of participants. Our game supervisors can easily add any additional adventurers once your team arrives - just make sure your party doesn't exceed our limit (6 players for Mission Bunker and Zodiac Killer[18+], 8 for Prison Break).

Need to reschedule? Just shoot us an email (info@foxinaboxseattle.com) or call us at (206) 495-3081- we don't bite. Please make sure to give us a minimum of 48 hours notice before your game. For changes within 48 hours of you booking, we charge a $25 fee that is either taken off the top of refunds or charged upon the rescheduled time.

Will I need to sign a release of liability before my experience?

Yes. Each person needs to sign a release of liability before participating an experience in store. For any minor younger than 18 years old, an adult needs to be present to sign a release of liability.

What is the age limit?

Due to the complexity of the missions, the minimum required age of a team member for Nuclear Missile Bunker and Prison Break is 13, and the minimum age for Zodiac Killer is 18 because you start out restrained and blind folded, both the blindfold and the restraints are optional but everyone must be 18 or older to participate in the Zodiac Killer room. Please talk to your game supervisor if you are prone to panic attacks or are uncomfortable in any way.

Children that are 13-15 years old can play Prison Break and Nuclear Missile Bunker, however they are required to have at least 1 adult in the room with them.

We cannot accommodate children younger than 18 at our facility without parental supervision.

Accessibility and Special Requirements

For accessibility, please give us a call and we will explain in detail how we can accommodate you. If you're pregnant, sensitive to flashing lights, or have other health conditions, just let us know of any concerns over the phone before you play and we'll help you out. Our rooms contain stairs and ledges, so we are not wheelchair or stroller accessible. We do not allow filming or recording of any kind in our rooms. We want everyone who visits to enjoy the experience without the risk of spoilers of any kind!

Zodiac Killer(18+) is best for players who are feeling brave, as there may be jump-scares during your game. If you're feeling jumpy, that's okay: let your game supervisor know before you play that you'd like to tone down the scares for your party. Our Mission Bunker and Prison Break rooms are horror-free, so you can play without any gruesome surprises.
