Boda Borg Boston

Boda Borg Boston in Malden is an entertainment center built around Quests, themed series of real-life challenge rooms that test a team’s ability to work together. There are 24 Quests spread across more than 70 rooms, with scenarios such as breaking out of prison, investigating Area 51, exploring a jungle, deciding the fate of nations or competing on a game show. It is not a video game or virtual reality; every challenge happens in physical space and is time-based.

One ticket gives access to all the Quests, so teams decide how many to try, in what order and how many attempts to make. Some Quests are physically demanding, some are mental puzzles and some combine both, so groups can tailor the visit to their energy level. Since opening in 2015, the center has welcomed about one and a half million guests, from small groups of friends to large organized outings and corporate team-building events.
