A fox has snatched a hen and hidden in his den, built inside the game box with sixteen doors. You lower a key on a chain into a keyhole and lift, and behind each door waits a suspect plus either a helpful clue or a trap.

Who it's for

Families with kids from five who like a fine-motor challenge with a small mystery attached.

Not for you if…

Fumbling with fiddly components frustrates you or the youngest player: the key takes patience, and the deduction is thin enough that adults will solve it long before the doors run out.

Vibe's take

Fidgety and giggly: the key swings, everyone leans in, and the deduction quietly builds while the kids concentrate on their hands.
