As you’ve probably gathered, our escape room games in Brisbane aren’t like conventional escape rooms. They’re “built” to take you beyond the typical escape room experience.
Here’s how…

It's the perfect blend of fun, challenge, and collaboration.
Fun Under the Sun
People of Brisbane, you know you’re blessed with some of the best weather this planet has to offer. Make the most of it by stepping outside the conventional indoor escape room and embrace the excitement of exploring Brisbane’s nooks and crannies. Feel the sun on your face and the wind in your hair as you navigate through the game - there’s nothing like Vit D to give you a boost.
CityDays’ Outdoor Brisbane Escape Rooms: A Live-Action Game in Brisbane

So what can you expect our Brisbane escape room games to be like?
Picture this. You and your team become the main characters in a dynamic, live-action game set in Brisbane CBD. Starting from a designated location sent to you via WhatsApp, you'll embark on a journey, solving puzzles, overcoming challenges, and deciphering riddles until you reach your final destination.
But there's much more to it than just that.
You'll uncover Brisbane's urban mysteries, delve into its history, and engage with its vibrant culture. You'll collaborate with your team to tackle puzzles, riddles, and challenges that strengthen your bonds. You'll face puzzles that demand input from the entire team to solve. You'll interact with Brisbane's laneways and immerse yourself in the city's atmosphere.
And the best part? You'll have a fantastic time discovering Brisbane's hidden secrets and uncovering some of its treasures with your favourite people.
Our games are designed to encourage more people to venture outdoors, explore their environment, and, most importantly, have fun.

Your goal is to unravel the puzzles, challenges, and cryptic clues we've laid out for you.
How Our Outdoor Escape Rooms Brisbane Work

Our outdoor Brisbane escape "rooms" offer a fresh twist on the classic escape room concept, focusing on exploration and teamwork in the open air rather than confinement.
Here's a quick guide to how it works:
Preparation: Our games are outdoor adventures, so dress accordingly and be ready for some walking. We've selected spots for optional breaks at cosy cafes and bars along the way which are totally optional, but handy if you need a time out.
Getting Started: Choose your adventure, and we'll send the starting location via WhatsApp. You can begin the game at your convenience (as long as it’s daylight, you can play whenever it suits you!).
The Game: You'll receive tasks, puzzles, and riddles through WhatsApp, each pointing to the next clue hidden in the city's landscape—from street art to plaques, road signs and much, much more! Success hinges on teamwork; every clue solved unlocks the next step in your journey.
Progressing Through the Game: Only correct answers allow you to advance. Each puzzle solved leads you closer to your next destination, with each spot a short walk away. Stay alert for additional clues along the way…you never know what might be hiding in plain sight!
Finishing Up: Complete all tasks and reach the end of the trail, we'll calculate your score based on accuracy, time penalties, and hints used. We’ll let you know how your team did, and you can let us know how much fun you had! And if you reach the top of our leaderboard, you could win a prize…
Any questions? Here’s how it works.
