Outfoxed! - A Family Review

One challenge we find gaming in our house? The age range of players. With kids ranging from five to almost twelve, any game we find that engages the whole family is an instant gem, and we were so excited to discover Outfoxed!

This adorable fox mystery game was simple enough for our five-year-old to play but was still fun for the older kids, too.

Outfoxed! is a mix of games like Clue, Guess Who, and Yahtzee mashed together with the plot of a dastardly, pie stealing fox. The suspects are a charming collection of adorned foxes, and clues must be uncovered with an incredibly cleverly designed decoder! Who doesn’t love a decoder tool?!

11yo: “Someone really creative created this game and it is so cute.”

Because Outfoxed! uses a number of common boardgame mechanics, like rolling dice and moving tokens, it’s a great introduction to hobby board gaming for young players. It also had our five-year-old practicing her counting and pattern recognition skills. We highly recommend this game for pre-school players!

Although our older kids may not be pulling this out to play on their own, they loved helping the younger kids play, and it’s simple enough that they can all play together without adult support. Four kids all of different ages able to play and enjoy one game? Incredible.

9yo: “I would steal that pie too!”

We loved this cooperative family game and look forward to foiling more pie stealing foxes with our five-year-old!

Helpful hints

  • Practice counting and pattern recognition with your pre-school kids by having them tell you about their dice rolls.

Description

A Cooperative Whodunit Game

Mrs. Plumpert’s prized pot pie has gone missing and it’s now a chicken chase to crack the case! Move around the board to gather clues and then use the special evidence scanner to rule out suspects. You’ll have to work together quickly because the guilty fox is high-tailing it towards the exit! Will you halt the hungry hooligan before it flies the coop… or will you be Outfoxed

About the Game

We’ve always been a fan of both cooperative games and deduction games, so it was little surprise that we fell for Outfoxed! The team at Department Recreation created a game that deftly combines both elements into a wonderful venue for honing deductive reasoning in a non-competitive environment. As you work together to try and nab the guilty fox, you’ll learn some valuable skills such as estimating probability and paying attention to details, as well as the important role that collaboration plays towards problem-solving. Happy sleuthing!
