Epic Escapes - Escape Room in A Box
Disclosure - We were sent Escape Room In A Box for the purpose of this post. All thoughts, opinions and photographs are our own. This post contains affiliate links.
We have mentioned it before but one of our favourite nights out as a couple is visiting an Escape Room. We have quite a few different venues close to where we live so we have completed so many over the years and very proud of ourselves that we hold a 100% escape rate. We have also hosted Escape Rooms at home too which are extremely fun and we have just completed the first escape from our Escape Room in a Box.
Escape Room in A Box
If like us you love a games night at home with friends or family then Escape Room in a Box is ideal. The box contains 3 epic escape rooms ranging in difficulty from easy to hard. Each escape room has its own back story and is fully interactive. You will have to search the room for clues and solve puzzles in order to escape. We all need a little help at times so the self help cards will give you little hints along the way if needed.
Inside The Box
CRIME - Easy
You’re house-sitting for a friend who has gone away to Italy. All was going well, until some people started angrily banging on the door in the middle of the night. It turns out your friend is part of some kind of crime syndicate and owes these people money.
Fortunately, you’ve found your way into your friend’s panic room. However, you’ve now locked yourself in and cannot get out or make contact with the police. The gangsters have left, but you only have one hour of oxygen left in the secured panic room. You need to figure out how to escape the room and get help!
You must work out what’s going on and why your friend has a panic room in order to figure out how to escape the room to save yourselves…
PIRACY - Intermediate
You’re working in the merchant navy on an oil tanker. Your usual captain of 10 years mysteriously went missing on your last voyage. You have been appointed a new captain temporarily to bring the ship back from Hong Kong to its home port of Bremen.
You are in the Indian Ocean headed for the Suez canal, part way through your voyage. Your new captain has called the crew into his quarters for a meeting. Upon your arrival in his quarters, the captain has locked you all in and diverted the ship’s course!
You remember that the former captain, a hardy old sea dog, had built an emergency escape mechanism into his quarters. However, you don’t know exactly how it works and must figure out his clues in order to open the special locking mechanism.
You and the rest of the crew suspect that something fishy is afoot! You have one hour until you reach port. You must figure out the captain’s plan and figure out how to escape the room in order to save the ship and yourselves…
HIJACK - Hard
Somewhere in the world, a plane is going to be hijacked. No one knows that it’s happening or which plane is the target.
You’ve broken into the hijacker’s house, but accidentally triggered the security system. You’re now trapped in the room where the hijacker has secretly stashed the details of their plan.
The specifics of the plan are hidden within this room. However, it is all encoded to stop the authorities from thwarting the hijacking. You need to find out which plane has been hijacked in order to save the passengers and yourselves.
Certain pieces of information will be needed in order to identify the targeted plane, save the passengers, and escape the room.
Each game is designed for 3-6 players however the escape rooms need to be set up so you will have to choose someone to set the game up for you. Unfortunately that person can not take part in the escape room as they will know where and what the clues are. They can however help you along the way by giving out hints and tips or they can just leave you to it. Big J set ours up and just left us as we tried to escape before our 60 minutes was up!
Each Escape Room is neatly packaged and the attention to detail is amazing. We actually felt like we were in a real Escape Room.
Now that we have completed Crime (easy), we have found out that it is reusable. Obviously we wouldn't be able to do it again as we would know the answers but it can be passed to family or friends. It also makes it ideal for team building sessions as you can host it for many groups.

Looking forward to trying Piracy over the next few weeks. Wish us luck at maintaining our 100% escape rate!
