For years there have been rumors of a shadow girl scout troop operating in the Boston and Cambridge area. Over the last week, you’ve been earning your Automotive Engineering badges in the local auto body shop. Little did you know that the auto garage is owned by the high council of this shadow troop, and they have been covertly watching you. They have hand-picked you and your team to have the chance to join their secret society, and last night, each of you received a rare invitation to meet there today.
You will have one hour to prove to them you have what it takes to earn the ultimate girl scout badge, and a coveted place in their troop.

Really fun room. Starts with you looking to earn some Girl Scout badges in an automotive shop but you discover a shadow Girl Scout society while you do, undertaking some nefarious behaviour (second half they class as horror, no live actors and would describe as mildly creepy only). Plenty of puzzles with some unusual and quite cool props.
Red Fox describe themselves as using adaptive difficulty for their rooms so a good place as an enthusiast to play, and we really enjoyed all 3 of their games and would recommend.
This game is brilliant. Wonderful set design, an unexpected wow moment, some very cool puzzles as you move through the sub.
Played as a public room with 7 people and would have preferred a slightly smaller group as ended up missing out on a couple of puzzles - but agree 4+ is preferable for this room in terms of getting it finished.
You (and your gang) assemble to steal a diamond, sat within a local art gallery. This is an incredibly well themed game in terms of flow - you really move from hideout to feeling that you are genuinely breaking in, stopping the alarm etc. Lots of puzzles in the main body of the game based around the art works which are well thought out and original.
The venue offers mostly private games but some public room options - we opted to play in a public booking as this game is recommended 4 people plus. They will allow you to play as fewer if you pay for 4 spots - however, there is a lot to do with reasonable difficulty, and actually I think we had a better experience despite playing with a group of strangers.
