This was out favourite from the Trapped series. It's a light puzzling experience, but the meta-puzzle made complete sense, and the puzzles leading to the endgame were also fun.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Trapped have raised the bar for my expectations from an escape room in a box. The Art Heist is possibly on the easier side for hard-core escape enthusiasts but would be perfect for a family get-together.

What Trapped does quite differently from most other ‘boxed escape room’ companies on the market is turn your space into an actual escape room. Ordinary items can become extraordinary within the context of the game and even the host can play too. Just pick a door, set the scene, and try to escape! It’s pretty cool, really.

Trapped: The Art Heist is a fun and innovative take on the play-at-home escape game set up. It’s a great and inexpensive way to bring the escape experience home.

I’d recommend this for families or those fairly new to escape rooms. For experienced players you’d probably do better with their more difficult game – The Bank Job.

The first Trapped! game we played and we enjoyed it. 

It is better than a lot of their other games.

It’s always a pleasure to see a straight-up toy or game company take on the escape room format. Trapped succeeds at creating a high-energy, family-friendly option that’s perfect for getting kids of all ages (grown-up ones included) into escaping.
