My first ever experience at any Fox in a Box venue and I was really impressed overall! Prison Break was a really challenging room that managed to take a small space and hide a really decent amount of tricky puzzles in a clever way. A really good heads up given to us beforehand was the breaking of traditional βescape room rulesβ which made for much more interesting solves throughout and helped us move forward without too much hesitation. The real standout was our Gamemaster Aidan who committed fully to his character and set the scene perfectly. I want every room to be introduced by him as it was awesome. 10/10 performance.

Our family loved every bit of this escape room. The set up and puzzles all made sense and it felt like we were really escaping prison! Highly recommend for everyone!!! One of the best we've done!

Excellent room! Challenging puzzles and requires good teamwork. Loved this room, can't wait to be back to try Fox in a Box's other rooms.

It remains to this day as my favourite prison-themed escape room. Wonderful props, immersive theming and subtle nods to film classics can be found throughout!
Gameplay
Puzzles flow beautifully, and it logically makes sense how the game plays through as a prison escape β the closest to a movie prison escape out of the prison games Iβve played so far.
Atmosphere
Great theming and atmosphere. Subtle nods to some Hollywood greats and cinema classics.

Good room, if you are experienced in escape rooms, youβll find it quite easy! Good combination of electronic and analog puzzles and locks, but is quite linear in the first half. 2nd half was a lot of fun & the wardenβs role playing by the GM was really well done! Also, requires a bit of math, watch out!

One prop got stuck, didnβt affect gameplay experience, but we could not continue without game master stepping in to assist.
