Zodiac Killer

This room was enjoyable. Jump scare in the middle so it may freak out those who are jumpy with loud noises. Good atmosphere and puzzles.

This escape room had solid props and puzzles, with a few tricky ones along the way. However, it lacked immersion and atmosphere and is one of the downsides of this room.

An interesting and creepy room that imagines what it's like being captured by the infamous Zodiac Killer. Solid vintage aesthetics with a few cool mechanics thrown in, bolstered by excellent sound effects. The puzzles were fine for the most part, though we did get tripped up a couple of times, once because we missed something due to the dim lighting. We also wasted a lot of time on one puzzle that didn't activate properly despite multiple tries, and mistakenly overcomplicating things trying to figure out stuff that ended up being completely irrelevant. On the whole, still a fun room that we enjoyed.

The Zodiac Killer overall was such a solid experience from start to finish, great variety of puzzles, fun storyline, effective scares and a clever use of space. While there’s nothing inherently flashy about this room, the content and layout itself really carries the load as each solve was unique in its own right while still relating to the subject matter of that Zodiac baddie. A couple cool transitional spaces were a highlight as well as the commitment from the staff to get the scares right, plain and simple I really just enjoyed working my way through this one. A well rounded, classic escape room! Fox in a Box make some good stuff. 7.4/10 🔏🧩

Absolutely LOVED this room!! The staff are so into their jobs, getting involved in their roles as they introduce you to the room and have such great customer service! Definitely got multiple jump scares in this room plus a section where the team gets split up so makes it even scarier! Would recommend to anyone!!

This room had the perfect balance of creepy atmosphere, engaging puzzles and set design. All the puzzles were logical was satisfying to solve.

Having played all but one experience across the Australian franchises, ‘Zodiac Killer’ stands as one of my favourite Fox in a Box rooms. This spooky game delivers charming ‘70s aesthetics tinted with hints of gore. The reason this game shines is due to its wide puzzle pool. It’s their most diverse collection of experiences, with some scarcely found — yet very enjoyable — puzzle types appearing within the ‘Zodiac Killer’ game flow. While this is the room’s strength, the way some puzzles are delivered is its downfall. Red herrings are readily offered at a few points in the experience’s 60-minute runtime. This can cause frustration and confusion, particularly for inexperienced teams and first-timers. On the scariness of the room: despite being the latest potential victims of the supposed Zodiac Killer, no live actors can be found within this room. There is one manually created jump scare, however, and this can be opted out of by discussing with the host upon your arrival. There is one other loud jump scare that may be unavoidable, but, apart from that, this room isn’t by any means the scariest room. Just be prepared for a touch of blood-splatter on a room’s decor. With all of this being said, it’s a great room and arguably their strongest design. Be brave — can you escape in time?

Such a cool room! One part which really blew us away.
