- Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseOutfoxed has quickly become our favorite game to play together. I first introduced it to my son when he was around 3¼, and now at nearly 3¾, I’ve seen a huge leap in how he interacts with it. What started as a fun, collaborative mystery has become a fantastic way to watch his deductive reasoning skills blossom. He’s beginning to grasp process of elimination, make intentional guesses, and even explain his thinking out loud—it’s truly amazing to witness.
The artwork is incredibly engaging—my son loves looking at all the different places the fox might visit, and the visual clues keep him invested from start to finish. The game pieces themselves are excellent quality, with a really nice feel in the hand. As a parent, I genuinely enjoy playing this game too.
One of the best parts is how flexible the pacing is. Sometimes a game goes quickly if your deduction clicks early; other times, it stretches out depending on how much you explore and how strictly you follow the rules. I’ve been relaxed about some mechanics, like movement and turn-taking, so my son could focus on reasoning and exploration—but it’s a game that can grow with him, and I know I’ll be able to gradually introduce more structure as he’s ready.
Overall, Outfoxed is a gem: thoughtfully designed, easy to adjust for younger players, visually rich, and fun for adults too. Highly recommend!

- Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseOutfoxed is a fun, cooperative mystery game that's perfect for preschoolers. It encourages problem-solving and teamwork, has engaging artwork, and keeps kids entertained without screens. A great pick for family game night!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseOur favorite family game!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchasePhenomenal game. Similar to cooperative cluedo but does a great job of being accessible to the whole family and allowing kids to contribute too.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseAdorable game! Its like the game Clue for littler kids. It keeps my 5 and 8 year old both engaged. I appreciate that the concept includes working together vs. 1 winner. I round can be played fairly quickly for those of us that don't enjoy being sucked into a long board game. I would for sure recommend to the friend!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseOutfoxed! is like Clue for kids—except instead of a murder mystery, you're solving the case of a missing pie. And honestly, that’s a crime worth investigating.
The game is simple but engaging: roll the dice, gather clues, and track down the sneaky fox before they escape. The clue decoder is pure magic to little minds, making them feel like real detectives (tiny Sherlock Holmes in pajamas). Plus, it teaches problem-solving and teamwork—because let’s be real, preschoolers need all the teamwork skills they can get.
The only downside? If your kid gets too into it, expect them to start accusing you of stealing random household objects. But hey, that just means they’re invested.
A great game for family fun and future detectives in training!

- Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2025Style: SingleVerified PurchaseI bought this used, like new, but when it came the game board was ripped and the fox token and instructions were missing. Not to be "outfoxed" by this, and having certain family nembers who had waited some weeks to earn the money to buy this game. I got a copy of the instructions online, stuck the board back together, and an available Llama figurine took the place of the fox token on the game board. My littles think it's hilarious that the fox dresses up as a "llama" in our version as it's trying to escape. Really love the game, but do expect all the pieces to come with even when buying used. My littles were so excited to play that I couldn't disappoint them, by sending it back just to get a new one. They really like this game
- Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2020Style: SingleVerified PurchaseWe were desperately looking for games to play as a family while we have been staying at home during the pandemic. Emotions are running a bit high and competitive games are sometimes ending in tears. Unfortunately, a lot of cooperative games are not challenging enough to entertain kids older than pre-school age. This game turned out to be a big win for us. There is definitely some luck but it requires some basic deductive reasoning to beat the fox.
In this game, all players are competing against the fox to figure out 'who done it.' There are 16 different possible fox thieves and each has a matching suspect card. You pick one thief card without looking and put the card in a special plastic holder. (Other thief cards are not used during the game and are returned to the box.) Suspect cards are placed face down around the board, four per side. On the board, each player gets a game piece and there is a fox. There are also 'clues' that are either stacked or placed face down nearby. Each 'clue' is a small card that fits into the special plastic holder.
Players then take turns rolling three special dice that have eyes and paw prints on the six sides. You must declare prior to rolling if you want to "reveal suspects" or "search for clues." Then you have three rolls to match the dice with your declaration--eyes to reveal suspects or paws to search for clues. You get to hold the 'correct' dice on a roll and only re-roll the 'wrong' dice. If you get all three dice to match what you declared by the third roll, you get to take that action.
Revealing suspects: The player gets to turn over two suspect cards. Each suspect is dressed a certain way and may or may not be wearing things such as a scarf, pearls, white gloves, umbrella, flower, etc.
Searching for clues: The player moves their game piece on the board the number of paw prints shown on the dice (ranges from 3-6). The goal for moving your game piece is to make it to open spots on the board that allow you to search for clues. You can typically reach a spot in one or two turns. Once on a spot, the player takes a 'clue', which is an item that the thief may or may not be wearing (scarf, pearls, white gloves, etc.) and places that card into the special holder. A window slides open to reveal if the thief is or isn't wearing that item. Using deductive reasoning, the team can then look at the suspect cards that are revealed to determine whether or not the suspects are innocent. Innocent suspect cards are returned to the box.
Didn't match all three dice in three rolls? The fox moves forward 3 spaces toward its fox hole.
Play continues like that, eliminating innocent suspects by revealing suspects or clues. The goal is to get down to one final suspect--who is the guilty fox--before the fox gets away by reaching his fox hole.
There are some variations explained in the instructions, but those are the basics.
I would highly recommend this game for kids over age 6. Kids under 5 would need help with the reasoning part, but could participate. It might be a bit too simplistic for kids over around age 8.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and creative game!
Style: SingleVerified PurchaseI love this game! This is a very creative and engaging game, the kids love it!
The concept of the game is that the players do not compete against each other - it is a group effort to win, this is so refreshing, especially for young children.
Also, the illustrations in this game are beautiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for kids
Style: SingleVerified PurchaseMy kids (ages 6-12) all love to play this together. They get so excited to look at the new clues, and there's real tension when they're deciding what to do next.
Plus, it's nice to have a cooperative board game, instead of one where everyone is "versus" each other. Recommended for anyone with kids in the house.
