It was super fun, from puzzles and solutions varying from small and large with lateral thinking and a great way to explore a suburb, it was very worth the money. However, we wished parking would have been more convenient for the St Kilda one as where you start will end you up with a bit of a walk from the original spot you parked, definitely underestimated how much walking was needed and involved so just be wary of spending an extra 2km to get back.
A fun day in the sunshine. Great way to explore and get to know the area
