About this Event

Can you solve the riddles and escape from Chicago? The best outdoor escape game awaits you!


In Chicago, you'll immerse yourself in the city’s iconic skyline and lively atmosphere as you venture through its bustling streets. You can explore near the famous Millennium Park!

An ideal outdoor activity for first time visitors, couples, groups, families, and children. Can be used as a great team-building activity.

Once you're in Navy Pier download the app and use the maps integration to reach the attractions. (An internet connection is required)

The mobile app provides:

  • Navigation and automatic help system with 3 levels of hints.
  • Total points and leaderboard.
  • Time is with you and not against you. Solve the riddles at your own pace.
  • You can pause your game any time and continue later or another day.

At each stop, learn about the attraction and solve a location-based riddle that can only be solved if you reach the specific location. Use logic, imagination, observation and team spirit to unlock the correct code and reveal the next destination of the city sightseeing game.

Once you put in the correct code, the app will reveal the next destination and riddle to you. The puzzles are independent and not connected to each other through a story, so interact with the attractions and their exteriors to work out the answers.

Take the opportunity to snap some photos as you walk between locations, and pause the game whenever you want. Have a coffee, visit a museum, go for lunch, or even wait until another day — the game will be waiting for you.
