9. Outdoor clue-solving adventure in downtown Columbus

Approximately two hours — a scavenger hunt-style escape room with real-world clues and puzzles across the downtown area.

“I received this as a gift from my wife, and we did it together. As fans of traditional escape rooms, we found this to be an enjoyable twist. The weather was lovely, allowing us to stroll through downtown, tackle puzzles, and pop into local shops at our own pace, without the stress of a ticking clock. The puzzle difficulty felt just right for this activity. As experienced escape room players, we managed to complete everything without needing hints, but each puzzle still required a satisfying amount of effort. There was never a sense that it was overly easy. Walking around and enjoying the city made this perfect in terms of challenge—you get that thrill of solving something without the frustration of an impossible riddle. Overall, we spent about 2.5 hours completing the experience, including our walk and a snack break at the Planter's store.”— chrissC3232IN
