This was a good alternate to the typical outing of dinner and a movie. For reference, there were 18 puzzles/riddles to solve and we logged nearly 7,000 steps walking so be prepared for the energy needed to complete this. I would recommend bringing water to drink along the way or stop in at JUMP to use their water fountain (it is about halfway through the experience). Having said that, it took us just under 2 hours to finish everything and we weren’t rushing through any of it.

It was a blast. I learned a bunch of stuff I never knew before.
