About this venue
Fox in a Box Veenendaal is a location of the international Fox in a Box franchise, located on the Markt in central Veenendaal. Here you play three indoor franchise rooms — a prison break (Prison Break/Mastermind), a bank heist (The Bank Job/Life Sentence), and the trickier Tesla's Mystery set in 1943 New York — plus two outdoor AR city games (Operation Mindfall and Magic Portal). The rooms are solid mid-market work: linear, with padlocks and some electronics. Visitors especially praise the prison cell atmosphere of Prison Break and the friendly, helpful staff; enthusiasts give average scores (6.5-7.5 on Escapetalk) and complain about unclear cause-and-effect with electronic triggers and poor lighting.

What visitors say
- Convincing prison block ambiance: 'the feeling of really being in a cell' (atmosphere 9 for Prison Break)
- Friendly staff and helpful hint guidance
- Prison Break has fun, reasonably logical puzzles that maintain the thread
- Cause and effect sometimes poorly readable: things open without it being clear why
- Poor lighting; the forced cell split is hard on teams of two
