About
Each room tells its own story, and players have 60 minutes to follow the clues, uncover secrets and solve the puzzles that move the plot forward. With three rooms running side by side, up to 18 people can play at the same time, making the venue a practical choice for kick-offs and team building, where companies can pick one or two games per person or rent the entire venue with a host, snacks and soft drinks. Gävle is part of the international Fox in a Box network, which also runs a large venue in central Stockholm, and the doors open every day from the morning into the evening.
The games
3 games to choose from
Fox in a Box Gävle reopened in 2026 under new owners with three one-hour rooms for two to six players, sending you to break out of a prison, solve a mysterious case or stop a bomb before time runs out. Games work in both Swedish and English, and groups larger than six can book several rooms at the same start time.
