Review: Very Good at Home Escape Game - As escape room enthusiasts, my husband and I are always looking for fun at home versions. We have done all of the available Unlock and Exit games, which are great, but this one has a different quality too it, mostly being there is a lot more "stuff". We enjoy having more physical puzzles and trinkets to play with, so that was a great feature in our eyes. The puzzles were clever, fun, and for the most part well designed with a few minor exceptions. We found the wording occasionally odd, and there was one puzzle that was almost irrelevant, however overall it was money well spent and well worth the $22. It was really nice to have physical locks to undo, but, of course at such a low price point, they weren't high quality. With all that said, this is still a 5-star product and well worth the money spent. We played with 2 adults which was so fun because we got to be involved in almost every puzzle. It took us 49 minutes to escape and we used just one hint. Review: Fun, engaging and exciting family experience! - My husband and I had never participated in an escape room before. Our sons, in their 20s, had been to some escape rooms. We played this game last night, and all four of us had a great time. The puzzles had a nice mix: lots of variety, some easy, some very challenging. Most of the puzzles truly required collaboration to solve. We did have a few frustrating moments, where it seemed like we were not making any progress, but then there would finally be that "a-ha" moment, followed by actual cheering and clapping, when we solved a puzzle or cracked open a lock. It took us 1.5 hours to solve the puzzle and "escape" (and that was without using any of the hints - I really wanted to look at some hints, but my sons wouldn't have it!) My sons gave me credit for purchasing a great game, how cool is that? Our only quibble is that a couple of the puzzles could use some tweaking, in that the clues were really a bit too vague. But despite that, this made for a wonderful evening of family fun for the day after Thanksgiving. Highly recommended. ## Features - Exciting cooperation game—everyone in the game is after the same goal: to escape. - You have to solve 19 mental and physical puzzles before a mad scientist turns you into werewolves—and you have only an hour to do it. - To enhance gameplay, players can connect to the desertcart Alexa. - A great immersion experience. - Includes 19 puzzles and three locks. You can do it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0752PGG2K | | Age Range Description | 13Y+ | | Are Batteries Required | Yes | | Best Sellers Rank | #95,341 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #2,221 in Board Games (Toys & Games) | | Brand Name | Mattel Games | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | No Warning Applicable | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 3,087 Reviews | | Edition | Standard Edition | | Educational Objective | To improve problem-solving skills and teamwork | | Estimated Playing Time | 60 Minutes | | Game Mechanics | cooperative | | Genre | Mystery | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00887961541373 | | Included Components | Lock, Book, Accessories | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 3 x 7.87 x 10.5 inches | | Item Part Number | 900 FJR43 | | Item Type Name | Party Puzzle Game | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Mattel | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 1188 | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 156 | | Manufacturer Part Number | FJR43 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | No Warranty | | Material Type | Paper | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 13 | | Model Number | FJR43 | | Number of Batteries | 3 LR44 batteries required.

No setup required. The game leads you through what you will need beforehand. Lots of fun! **Q: Does this game have replay ability?** A: Yes. They include a link where you can download fresh pages of materials that you need to write on in order to solve the puzzles. So you're not going to replay the game yourself, but others who have not played it before will be able to do so. **Q: What if you don't have an Alexa device?** A: You don't need Alexa to play the game, it is just a fun addition. **Q: Would it be required or helpful to have supplies like pencils, paper, scissors, or tape for this game?** A: You’ll need pencils, and paper is helpful, but you can write on the actual materials if you don’t plan on repacking it for a second play. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good at Home Escape Game *by A***N on June 20, 2019* As escape room enthusiasts, my husband and I are always looking for fun at home versions.

First and foremost I will say that over all we all had a wonderful time! I purchased this “Werewolf Experiment” Escape the Room in a Box for myself and my 2 children for a Halloween family night ‘stay-cation’. I was not sure if it would be too difficult as my oldest is only 14 years old and my younger child is only 10 but it looked like fun and the price is less than a haunted hayride (we did that 2 weeks ago) or even dinner at a goodChinese restaurant! It was NOT TOO DIFFICULT FOR THE THREE OF US ( ages= adult, 14years old & 10 years old ) HOWEVER IT DID TAKE US MORE THAN 1 HOUR! This is due in part to the fact that the box was missing a piece that was a vital part of the final combination! I know this sounds bad but it really isn’t a reason not to purchase the box or to miss out on the experience.... it means that for one puzzle you may have to use the answers (not the hint which was only good for confirming our suspicion that we were missing a piece of that particular puzzle) to ‘escape’! So some of the reasons I still think this is a great box are as follows: The items in the box and puzzles are quite cool! Trying not to spoil it for anyone I will say that the box is all you need, you do not need to add any props or objects if you don’t want to! The puzzles were fun and there is a good variety of different types of puzzles! Part of the fun was figuring out how to do each puzzle and there are puzzles for all different skill (or age) levels! My 10 year old was just as important to our groups success as my 14 year old and had a blast solving some of the puzzles! If you want the background music it is available online at escaperoominabox.com and ready to play (there are also repack instructions but we chose to enjoy it fully and write the answers right on the materials...) the music was a lovely addition at the beginning (it even suggests a bathroom break if you aren’t worried about the timer which was nice for a family event, Lol!) however it plays in 15 minute increments and we forgot to continue playing the music pieces after the first 30 minutes... I was also delightfully surprised with the 3D puzzles! For the price it was a really great experience! A few things I did not like were that the piece was missing so we basically missed the opportunity to work one of the main puzzles! It felt a little like cheating to have to look up the answer ( the hint did not help except that we stopped wasting time to look for the missing piece ) and that was very disappointing when you are working so hard not to take any clues! I thought the music would have been more enjoyable if it simply played for the full amount of time without having to manually go back to the page and cue up the next track to play but it isn’t essential and apparently can be played somehow with Alexa?!? The final lock must not have been closed tightly from the manufacturer or was somehow defective (it was quite hard to lock again?) because my son picked it up to move it out of his way and it popped open! The jar didn’t open up however (if it was one of the square boxes it probably would have opened ruining a part of the experience) so we just locked it back up and kept playing! Even though a couple things were a bit ‘wrong’ the experience as a whole was definitely worth it and one that I would wholeheartedly recommend to others! A great evening at a great price!!! ## Frequently Bought Together - Mattel Games Escape Room in a Box The Werewolf Experiment, Room Escape Group Game for Teens and Adults, with 19 2D and 3D Puzzles, Makes a Great Game for 13 Year Olds and Up - Exit: The Abandoned Cabin - Kennerspiel Des Jahres Winner, Card-Based Family Escape Room Game for 1-4 Players, Ages 12+, Blue - Escape Room The Game, Version 2 - with 4 Thrilling Escape Rooms | Solve The Mystery Board Game for Adults and Teens (English Version) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/81911608-escape-room-in-a-box-the-werewolf-experiment-room-escape](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/81911608-escape-room-in-a-box-the-werewolf-experiment-room-escape) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
