Escape Room Options Across Adelaide CBD

How Escape Rooms Actually Work

Puzzle venues in the CBD split into two styles. Fox in a Box Adelaide and Escape Hunt Adelaide run classic 60-minute missions with a game master offering hints, while Hijinx Hotel Rundle Place hands teams a set of five quick challenge rooms to score points in.

Choosing between the three:

  • Fox in a Box Adelaide has 11 rooms in an old cinema building on Hindley Street, from first-timer games to horror themes such as Zodiac Killer, from $40 per person
  • Escape Hunt Adelaide runs five rooms on the third floor above Rundle Mall, with nothing scary in them and doors that are never actually locked, also from $40 per person
  • Hijinx Hotel Rundle Place has ten playful rooms, from oversized Scrabble to a ball pit, with teams of two to six, from $26 per person
  • For big groups, Fox in a Box Adelaide hosts 66 players at once, while the two Rundle Mall venues each take up to 30
  • Each has drinks on site: licensed lounges on Hindley Street and above the mall, and a cocktail bar and pizza kitchen at Hijinx

Escape Rooms, Explained

Which CBD escape room is least scary for nervous players?

Escape Hunt Adelaide says there is nothing scary in its rooms and the doors are never actually locked. Hijinx Hotel Rundle Place is playful challenge rooms rather than a single locked mission.

How many people can play escape rooms at once on Hindley Street?

Fox in a Box Adelaide hosts 66 players across all 11 rooms, and its lounge seats 66.

Can we eat at a CBD escape room venue?

Hijinx Hotel Rundle Place has a kitchen serving woodfire-style pizza, burgers and tacos. Fox in a Box Adelaide arranges catering platters for groups of 13 or more on weekdays, and Escape Hunt Adelaide takes pre-orders on party packages.

Do the Hijinx rooms work like a normal escape room?

Not quite. Teams get five challenge rooms and try to rack up points in each within its time limit, with an option to play a second set.
