This game was a lot of fun. It was really cool to work on puzzles that needed you to take a look around in the real world instead of inside of a room. (Why we also love Geocaching!) We didn't have much trouble and only needed one hint, which was more of a nudge since we were on the right track. I will say that we're a little out of shape and there are hills to climb, so doing this on a hot summer day probably wasn't the most ideal time to do it. We 'escaped' with 15 minutes left on our 2 hour timer and we look forward to completing the other outdoor adventure by Escape Rhode Island on a cooler day!
Staff at this location are always super nice and great to chat with!

This was the first outdoor escape room I have ever played, and I am happy to say that it was a genuinely compelling game, even without a set. Not only did the puzzles flow brilliantly, the game required the use of local landmarks and buildings in a way that would be impossible to replicate in an indoor room. There was a good amount of walking, so that would be a deterrent if you are not able to stay on your feet for long periods of time. You have about 2hrs to complete the game, which should be doable for an experienced group of 2-4. Any more than 4 and it may be difficult to share props. I’m excited to try to play their other outdoor room whenever I can!
