The best Columbus escape room experience
About the escape room game
This escape room adventure around downtown Columbus takes the best parts of an escape room and the best parts of a scavenger hunt and merges them into the most fun thing to do in Columbus. 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! Instead of trying to escape the room, this Escapely adventure takes you around downtown Columbus to track down ghosts and reunite two star-crossed lovers!
This real world escape room is the most unique escape room in Columbus. 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 our Columbus escape room adventure and what you'll see along the way. Escapely's Columbus escape room starts off at the Columbus Commons garage to take a closer look at a plaque posted on the outside. You'll need the plaque to solve the puzzles! Next, you'll visit the historic Ohio Theatre, which was designed to bring opulence and beauty to the everyday moviegoer - not just the elite. You'll get to take a beautiful walk around Capitol Square, which houses the Ohio Statehouse (in addition to Escapely clues!). Another fun fact is that Abe Lincoln was right here in Columbus when he received the news that he had been elected president. To close out your Columbus escape room experience, you'll spend some time in Battelle Riverfront Park, which is one of the most beautiful and walkable areas of downtown Columbus. It contains many memorials and monuments honoring historical figures, first responders, and many more. It's also a stunning place to spend an afternoon. Finally, check out the Ohio Supreme Court building before celebrating your escape room victory at a beer garden or restaurant in downtown Columbus.

Fun way to spend a couple of hours!
My friends got me this as a birthday present. We all completed the outdoor escape room together and had a blast!! It’s a great way to spend a couple of hours and incorporated some of Columbus’s must see downtown landmarks. In total we probably walked a mile or so. The end point is right by a bunch of great restaurants so we completed the final clue while enjoying some drinks and apps! I highly recommend this for anyone who likes games and escape rooms and wants to spend the afternoon out and about.

FUN and unique adventure
We received this outdoor escape room adventure as a gift and we had an absolute blast doing it! I would highly recommend if you like puzzle solving. It’s challenging, but doable. There are degrees of hints you can get if you’re struggling, and we really liked that. Sometimes just a little hint is enough to get you on the right track. We were proud of ourselves whenever we didn’t use any hints for a stop. We’re already thinking of other people we know who would like it too — Christmas gift idea! It’s a really fun way to spend a few hours!

A fun experience exploring the downtown Columbus area!
Received this as a gift from my wife and we completed it together. We are big fans of traditional escape rooms, but this was a fun offshoot of that. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed getting to leisurely walk around the downtown area, solving the puzzles and taking breaks to pop into local shops without the pressure of a ticking clock. We felt the difficulty level of the puzzles was perfect for this type of experience. As escape room puzzle veterans we were able to get through everything without needing the hints, but there was still a satisfying amount of effort that went into completing each one. There was never a feeling that it was TOO easy. And when you’re walking around, enjoying the city, that’s kind of the sweet spot of difficulty you want. You still get that little rush of figuring it out, but aren’t stuck beating your head against some monument trying to figure out an impossible riddle. The whole thing took us about 2.5 hours to complete including all the walking and a pit stop for treats at the Planter’s store.

Fun and creative game
it was a great experience for my family and got us out of the house and off our phones! The puzzles weren’t too difficult and made everyone use their heads. We received the game as a Christmas gift, and considering looking into purchasing other games.

Great experience
We loved traveling around Columbus solving puzzles. The locations were spaced not too close but not too far either. The puzzles were challenging and clever. It was great to take our time and grab some food and enjoy it at our own pace. Very well done.
