From inside our escape game The Bank…


At Fox in a Box Chicago, we pride ourselves on creating escape room experiences that cater to all age groups, especially the young and the young at heart. 

Our rooms are not just puzzles; they are stories waiting to be unraveled, adventures waiting to be embarked upon.

Our escape room missions

  • Uncover the secrets of a hidden underground bunker and prevent a global catastrophe in The Bunker.

  • Find your way out of a high-security prison before time runs out in The Prison. (For ages 15+ only)

  • Execute the perfect heist and escape with the loot without getting caught in The Bank. (For ages 15+ only)

We offer a kid-friendly version of The Bunker

Understanding that younger minds might need a different kind of challenge, we can adapt this escape room mission for our young adventurers. 

We add extra hints and clues that are age-appropriate. 

Each room comes with a dedicated Game Master, always on the lookout, ensuring that the young players are on the right track. 

While we encourage the kids to explore clues and collaborate as a team, our Game Master is always ready to provide hints to ensure the game remains engaging and progresses smoothly.

While the adult does not have to be inside the room with the kids, they are required to stay in our lobby space for the duration of the escape room should any issues arise.

Age requirements for Child-Friendly rooms

Our escape rooms are crafted to be enjoyable for those aged 10 and above. 

However, we've noticed that 12-year-olds often have the most exhilarating experience.

 

For kids ages 10-14, while they can enjoy the game independently, a parent or guardian must stay nearby in our lobby during the entirety of their game

For groups with participants under 10, we mandate the presence of at least one adult inside the room with them.


If you're uncertain about which game to pick or have questions about age suitability, give us a call!

On team size

Each of our rooms can accommodate 2 to 6 participants. If you're planning an event for a larger group, consider booking 2 rooms in the same time slot. 

We only have one child-friendly room, so please ensure one adult will be joining the other adventurers in 2nd room you book with us (The Prison or The Bank).

Booking checklist & tips

article-image-4


Do you need the child-friendly option? If your group consists of participants aged 15+ or includes multiple adults, you might prefer the regular version. The child-friendly version is tailored for groups between the ages of 10-14 playing without an adult inside the escape room. The adult must remain in our lobby if any issues arise inside the room.


Adult supervision: Is there a guest aged 9 or younger in your group? If so, we require at least one paid adult to participate in the room. Children age 10-14 years old are able to play the room on their own without the adult inside the room, but the adult must remain in our lobby if any issues should arise.


Group size: Count the total number of guests, including any required adults. For 6 or fewer participants, book just one room. For 7-12 participants, ensure you book two rooms that work for the ages in your group. If unsure about group size or if you have more than 12 participants, please reach out to us at (312.878.7899) for guidance.


Booking process: Reserve the rooms on our website as you would for our standard escape rooms. Be sure to notify us if your room will need to be made child-friendly. If you are unsure what rooms would work best for your group, please don't hesitate to reach out with questions via text/call at (312) 878-7899.


Specify your preference: After booking, contact us at info@foxinaboxchicago.com or call/text +1 312 878 7899 to request a "child-friendly bunker" along with your booking date & time. Please give us at least 24 hours' notice to prepare the child-friendly version. For any queries, don't hesitate to ask!


Nearby dining options: If you're considering dining out post-game, there are several nearby restaurants to choose from. Your group should be ready approximately 90 minutes after your escape room booking. Popular options within walking distance include Roots Pizza, Half Sour, Bar Louie, Lou Malnati's, and more. Make sure to contact your chosen restaurant directly for reservations.
