Most people spend Friday night scrolling through streaming services for 40 minutes, then watching nothing. Some people lock a bottle of wine inside a wooden puzzle and spend two hours trying to break in…
The Boxer Gifts Wine Escape Room is exactly what it sounds like: a physical puzzle that holds your wine hostage until you solve it. It uses an ancient brainteaser mechanism that requires only 4 moves to unlock. Simple, right..?
Wrong.
The makers claim this thing can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 2 hours to crack depending on user skill, obviously. One Amazon reviewer we came across wrote they genuinely debated whether to buy wire cutters to retrieve the expensive bottle trapped inside when the included code didn’t work…!
The Story: Poison, Inheritance And A Dusty Manor
A dark tale of inherited fortunes, bitter relatives… and poison. You’ve been poisoned and the wine is the antidote – but it’s locked in a cage.
The game has four historic “rooms” to escape: the library, study, atrium, and servant’s quarters. Answer the questions and puzzles correctly, fill in the score sheet and decipher the 4-digit combination lock code. The game comes complete with a metal wine cage, 4-digit combination lock, 54 escape room cards and a score sheet which you use to navigate through an abandoned manor, solving riddles to unlock your survival!
What People Actually Say
The Amazon reviews for this game are just as interesting as the challenge itself…
One customer lost the code sticker months before the gift exchange. “It took us 4 hours, a snack break, a smoke break and 2.5 glasses of alcohol to finish this game!!”
Another wrote, less flatteringly: “The lock is temperamental. The puzzles are challenging. Some questions might have two right answers. You might need Google. You might need wire cutters…”
But, hey, you’ll remember the evening. Grab the wine escape room, lock a bottle inside and see what happens when the wine fights back for yourself…
