You get to search for clues hidden in the real world and then use them to solve escape room puzzles. When you solve for a code, the app will tell you where to go look for your next clue!

This real world escape room is the most unique escape room in Boston's Beacon Hill. It takes you on a clue-solving adventure to find clues, solve puzzles, and follow an immersive storyline. If you want to keep the experience a surprise, don't read this next bit - it contains some spoilers about where you'll go on Escapely's Boston outdoor escape room adventure and what you'll see along the way.

In Escapely's Beacon Hill escape room, you'll start off in the heart of historic Beacon Hill on Charles St. As you walk around the cobblestoned streets, keep your eyes peeled for clues! One clue will take you to Congressional House, the state congress building famous for its golden dome. Then you'll head to the 54th Regiment Memorial which commemorates one of the first African American regiments in the Civil War.

Next, you'll head to a beautiful public park on the south edge of Beacon Hill called Boston Common. Enjoy the greenery amidst the walkers and joggers while you search for the Embrace statue - your next clue. If it's a weekend, there might even be a festival or event in the park! When you finish, we'll send you to a local bakery and cafe to solve the final puzzles and escape. Beacon Hill is picturesque with narrow streets, gas lamps, and brick architecture, so we highly recommend sticking around to explore and take some pictures after you find all of the clues.

During this adventure, you (and your team) can work together to crack codes, solve puzzles, and complete challenges in order to win and “escape.” Outdoor escape rooms are immersive puzzle adventures that get you exploring the great outdoors. It blends the aspects of traditional escape rooms with a scavenger hunt-style exploration through the gorgeous Beacon Hill neighborhood in Boston.

Yes, but it is not generally recommended unless you are a serious escape room enthusiast. It would be like playing an escape room that has the same storyline and similar puzzles, but with different clues available. Because the clues are integrated throughout Boston (specifically Beacon Hill), the clues are different than all other Whodunnit games. But the puzzles will feel familiar.

Beacon Hill is a gorgeous, cobblestoned, gas lamp-lined, walkable neighborhood in Boston. It's picturesque, offering many photo ops along the way and the historical buildings and monuments are perfect for clues. While there you will certainly want to cruise by Acorn St, one of the most photographed areas in Boston! There are also many boutiques, antique shops, restaurants, and bars in the area for those wishing to make a day of it.

It's both! In a traditional escape room you must solve puzzles that lead from one to the next to escape the room (or a series of rooms). In Escape the City you must solve puzzles that lead from one to the next, with clues in the real world. It's one of the best things to do in Boston, particularly Beacon Hill.

To be near the start of the game, park near Charles St and Pinckney St. There are also paid parking garages near Boston Common (which is part of the game). There is limited metered parking in the area, but you can try your luck and hope for a spot!

You will not need to enter any businesses to play this Boston escape room. All clues around Beacon Hill are publicly accessible.
