Escape The City - Indianapolis [Outdoor]Escapely - IndianapolisEscape roomOther We played this on Labor Day and followed the recommended start place. This is in downtown Indy, so street parking is limited. We found a spot a couple blocks down that was free due to the holiday. There are also, of course, always parking garages nearby. This required more walking that I think the box tells you. It said it’d be 1.5-2 miles but my health tracker showed closer to 2.5 miles and my partner and I bowed out of the walking portion with one stop remaining. This box has clues that need to be solved, but I found we spent more time walking to places than we spent actually playing the puzzle. I also, personally, don’t think the puzzles highlighted much of Indianapolis in particular, as a resident of the city. It used clues from around the city but it didn’t teach me anything about the city or its history. The story itself was pretty interesting though. I think I would have enjoyed it more if we sat in a dining room or bar establishment with pictures needed to answer the clues and did this over a glass of wine. Some of the puzzles were really interesting; I liked the first puzzle a lot and I liked how there were different “paths” for two of the puzzles which both took you through the same story ending. Overall, this was a fun holiday weekend adventure but I don’t think the “explore the city” aspect is necessary or done well.
