Boxaroo

Boxaroo is an immersive adventure company in Downtown Boston that designs, builds, and runs interactive puzzle room experiences. Its rooms are built around stories, such as visiting the cabin of a bestselling adventure novelist or entering the worlds of a renowned magician and an eccentric art collector. The company encourages players to try something different, and its rooms include surprises meant to set them apart from typical escape rooms.

Beyond its permanent rooms, Boxaroo stages large events, including scavenger hunts, ballroom-sized escape games, and murder mysteries. Businesses and organizations use it for team bonding, with custom accommodations for small teams, multi-package deals, and events for anywhere from 2 to 400 people. Because the company designs and builds its own experiences, it can adapt events to the size of a group.
