Having done numerous escape rooms, the experience in every room at Red Fox Escapes is top tier - I highly recommend them! The puzzles are some of the best I've ever encountered - logical, immersive, and incredibly fun for the whole group. The Game Masters are wonderful, and the owners truly care about their guests - Marie even went out of her way to help accommodate our group's scheduling needs. Don't miss out on this place! read more

I love red fox!! The puzzles are clever and fun but not impossible to figure out. The rooms are so well designed with so much attention to detail and decoration, you really feel like you are immersed in the story. I've done The Body Shop with 2 people and the U-Boat with 8, and both times there was plenty for everyone to do. read more

This is place is the best! My partner and I did "The Body Shop" and the puzzles were laid out nicely for a smooth game. Very interactive and nicely challenging. We will be coming back for more!! Thank you Zander, our game master, for such a wonderful time! read more

What a great room! We did The Body Shop room. Storytelling was top tier and the puzzles were great. A must-try!

We had a fun time as a group of 5 completing "The Heist" -- it was definitely a bit of a challenge and they were gracious with their hints, such that we finished with a few minutes to spare. For this particular room, prior to starting, they advised us that we should work separately on puzzles so that we could complete the room in time. While this allowed for a high density of puzzles, it did make for more fragmented play. read more

This place was great. We did the U - Boat. The staff did a good job explaining everything in the room. The room felt like being in a Submarine. Every clue lead to another great surprise. There was like 4 rooms total which made it more fun because we had to go back and forward to solve the codes. Overall, a great time read more

David is an exceptional game master!!! So kind and on our side, totally made it enjoyable. We did NOT expect how dynamic and interactive the rooms would be, especially because some of the photos weren't the clearest compared to other escape rooms in MA. But you won't be disappointed if you come here! I love that the owners and team are so invested in everything, it shows through. read more

Been to about six escape rooms. This was the best ever. Good variety of puzzles with no "unfair" ones. Multiple stages. Worked well with a group of four adults and two teens. read more

Booked last minute on a Saturday night for the only a lot available - the body shop. The team was super helpful in making my reservations. When you show up, they have a waiting room with trivia and games to play. We did the body shop which was pretty good, we won but only with the help of our great host. Would highly recommend! read more

My sons and I had an amazing time at Red Fox Escapes! We are visiting from Dallas Texas for the Red Sox Game and it was rained out! They and our time here so amazing! Thank you David for putting up with the kids!!! read more

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!! My first ever escape room, we did the heist with 8 people and Rebecca was our guide. We had SO MUCH FUN!!! It is incredibly satisfying to be stuck on a puzzle and then figure it out. We made it through with 15 minutes to spare! 1000/10 would recommend. read more

Good times! Cured my 8yo child of his vacation malaise. I appreciated that the puzzles are of different natures, so that people with different experience levels, skills, and age could all participate and have a great time. We played the 'heist' game and had Tess as our game master--she was lovely. read more

David D was such an excellent game master. Thanks for providing such a fun time for our team to bond!

This was our favorite escape room experience. Clean and professional staff and facility. I was a little hesitant about only being a group of 3 in their most challenging room. But the clues are not hidden in ridiculous places. They are a bit obscure but we were definitely challenged. There's a hint screen in every section of each room. Staff are attentive and the hints were just enough of a push in the right direction. Well put together. Highly recommended!! Competitively priced too. read more

Red Fox had been my absolute favorite escape/puzzle room experience to date. I've done all 3 rooms and each of them are unique in the ways they challenge, with the puzzle types varying from room to room while keeping themes to tie them all together. The GM's here are EXCELLENT at their roles, and I want to particularly shout out Xander and David. They are on another level of fun & bonding with their groups- my friend & I are the "passenger princesses" of the escape rooms and Xander was so kindly chatting with us thru the screen while we were a bit useless to the UBoat mission. David was incredibly helpful while also letting my boyfriend and I get to conclusions ourselves. He was also super fun with joking with us through the screen & really made our time special! My boyfriend loved our experience & said it was his favorite he's ever done. I adore RF and if you're looking for somewhere that puts their heart & soul into their craft, look no further! read more

I'm obsessed with this place! My friends and I have completed all three rooms and are patiently waiting for them to finish their next construction! If you like to do escape room for a challenge, select the UBOAT. If you're looking to do one that has a lot of puzzles for big groups or just to split up and not work on the same thing select The Heist. If you're looking for a really interesting story, select The Body Shop. Every room is super fun and interactive! Each has unique twists and surprises that Id hate to spoil here I've been to so many escape rooms and this one is definitely a place I'd recommend! read more

This was my 12th escape room location that I've been to, and it makes the podium for sure. Well thought out (and unique!) puzzles, really cool rooms, fun effects, and an amazing staff (game master Xander was great!) Definitely recommend this place and hope to come back soon. read more

Came back to do another room, The Heist! And it certainly did not disappoint! In fact, I liked it even better than The U-Boat! Initially, I had been wary since heist concept rooms can be a little overdone. And the premise was similar, a band of robbers looking to pilfer a precious diamond from an art museum. Without revealing any spoilers, I'll say that their version felt like a fresh take on a common theme! We completed the room as a group of 4, with 2 clues, and 7 minutes to spare. If we had been a larger group, I think we could accomplished the room without any hints. It was cool to learn that they are able to toggle the room difficulty based on your in-game performance. This made it just the right level of challenging. I'll certainly be back to try their 3rd room, The Body Shop (with horror themes) in the future! read more

I've been three times now and every time it's a blast! When we did the UBoat, we had a great time, Rebecca was so great leading us through! So kind and helpful. This time we did the Body Shop and what a wild ride!!! So many thoughtful props and twists and turns! It was a real adventure! Everything was just so well thought out and perfectly balanced. Maddy was so passionate about her work and took the time to chat with us about everything happening at red fox. We're so excited to hear about the possible expansion. What an awesome time! Highly recommend! read more

Lots of fun puzzles for everyone to solve! Kids and adults could all help. Great clue timing from Nico.

The Heist was my first escape room experience, and I had a blast! The set dressing was immersive and the puzzle design was fun and well-geared for collaboration with my friends. (There were six of us playing.) Without getting into spoilers, the way some elements came together was so clever and satisfying. I'd especially like to note what a pleasure it was working with Tess as our gamemaster. She did a terrific job drawing us in, guiding us, and bringing a friendly high energy to the game. read more

We have played Red Fox Escapes twice now. We had a blast! I do think it is more sophisticated than other escape rooms I have visited, and the tasks connect better and don't seem as random. They're always punctual and provide as much help as you want or don't want. Highly recommend. read more

This is our third Boston area escape room experience and Red Red Fox's "U Boat" was far and away the best! The puzzles are challenging without being impossible, and Rebecca, our game master, was positively outstanding! She found the perfect balance between letting us puzzle things out and providing high value but not too obvious hints to help us along and maximize our enjoyment of this rich, gorgeously crafted experience! I can't say enough good things about these folks and their amazing craft. The detail and depth of the room created an incredibly immersive experience we won't soon forget! read more

I am an avid escape room player and we had so much fun playing at Red Fox Escapes. The room was so well done and so much fun! I can't wait to come back. Our gamemaster Maddie was on top of things. I highly recommend Red Fox Escapes. read more

The purchase and arrival process was clear and easy, the game was very fun and engaging. We did The Heist and would recommend it as a great all ages family game. A shout out to our game master, Lili! Thank you for helping us out when it was clear we were just stuck and weren't going to ask for help! read more

My son and I had such a great experience at Red Fox this evening! The room we did was amazing and our guide Xander was so helpful and kind! Look forward to going back! read more

The best in the Boston area! Great puzzles (not too hard, not too easy), fantastic stories and set design. We had a great time. We loved our game runner, Senna. read more

Tons of creative puzzles, good decor, and shocking environments. We played the U Boat room as a team of 4 and were not disappointed. There were so many puzzles to solve that we barely made it out. There were some shocking environment changes that happened over the course of the challenge which none of us expected. Definitely a place to check out! read more

Absolutely amazing time tonight, the best escape room I've done. It's thorough, highly detailed, and the facilitating team are there to make sure you're challenged but not so frustrated that it takes the fun out of it. I was very impressed by the level of detail. If you love a horror twist, do the Body Shop!!! We will be coming back often, I can't wait to show the rest of my friends. Thanks, Marie! read more

We had an incredibly fun family adventure doing the Body Shop Escape. With a bit of help we made it out with seconds to spare.

It's always a blast coming here! I'm getting my friends addicted, too. I'm an avid escape room fan, and red Fox is definitely unique in its puzzles , different in a cool way, and tons of fun. Can't wait for the next room to open, because so far I've done them all! PS the founder Nico is such a nice guy! Such a pleasure to meet him and hear his back story of its founding! read more

This was my first time doing an escape room. The space is well situated and designed. It's welcoming before you even start the room. Our host was a young man, whose name I did not properly catch, who was warm and friendly. He walked us through what to expect (our group was a mix of old hats and novices) and was very encouraging. The room itself, the U-Boat, was well constructed and designed. Red herrings were minimized and our host was helpful with hints when needed. It was difficult without being impossible, intuitive without being obvious. Highly recommend this location, just for the staff, but the rooms really elevate it. read more

my group did the heist. Challenging, fair and very fun. Nico was a wonderful host. We are looking forward to the next time!

Lots of creative and challenging puzzles, and cool themed rooms. Great for team building!

My group and I did the U-Boat and we all had a blast. The difficulty was well fair but still tough, you get unlimited hints (which I appreciated), and they did some pretty unique stuff that I've never seen before in previous escape rooms. Red Fox was also super accommodating for my group as well, we ran late and they didn't have any issues adjusting our start time. They only have 2 rooms right now with more to come but I'm optimistic if they designed it like they did the U-Boat, it'll be spectacular. read more

Such an amazing escape room experience - the sets were detailed and the puzzles were both immersive and challenging. We have done a lot of escape rooms all over - and this was definitely the best! read more

Had a great escape room experience. Friends and I did the U-Boat one. The effects of this one were very cool. The game master was the owner himself. He explained things very well and was helpful and generous. The entire place outside the game room was clean and well-designed. The waiting room was comfortable and had games to play. FYI this place is in the basement. read more

This escape room was so fun and the staff was lovely! I did the Body Shop game room with one person so whenever we were truly stumped and standing around looking at each other the game room master would drop a hint on the timer screen to give us the momentum to keep going (which I appreciated because it kept the game moving and motivated us). The theme of the room was so unique and fun and it was interesting to see the story unfold as we worked our way through the clues. The one hour flew by so quickly! It's definitely an experience worth your time and money. Will be going back to try the other games! read more

We did the Body Shop room and had an amazing time! Really well designed room with smart and engaging puzzles!

The Heist is my fourth escape room and the only one I managed to crack. We only have two people but the owner adjusted the level of difficulty so it fits a team of two, which makes me really want to go back and try other rooms at red fox. We were also allowed to ask for clues when we feel lost. As a beginner, the sense of achievement is the one true key to remain interest. However, we were never privileged to receive as much consideration and customization in any other escape rooms in greater Boston. The owner of red fox actually cares about our experience and wants us to succeed. I sincerely appreciate that. The Heist is also full of fun with diverse types of puzzles. You will enjoy a full "brain massage" no matter what intellectual challenges you are looking for, even maths! Give it a try, you won't regret it! read more
