Have you ever heard about Escape Rooms? An Escape Room is a themed real-life game where players use the elements of a room to solve a series of puzzles, find clues and achieve a mission within the time given. Normally it can be played in teams made up of 2 to 7 people, but every room has its own recommendations in terms of the ideal number of players. And Madrid offers a lot of them! Check them out!
Fox in a Box
Fox in the Box is maybe the best Escape Room in Madrid. It offers 8 rooms divided into two different locations. 2 of them are in Calle de las Infantas 25 (Bunker and The Zombie Lab); the other 6 are in Calle Ancora 12, local (Life Sentence x2, Zodiac Killer x2, Mastermind and Golden Nugget Saloon.)
They’re prepared to welcome international people, so don’t be afraid to speak English! Obviously, at least one person in the group should be able to speak Spanish in order to allow everyone to understand the riddles you’ll need to solve!
The price is usually €20 per person, but it can vary based on the number of people on the team.
