Traveler reviews
7 verified traveler reviews for Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game. Ratings and reviews provided by Viator and Tripadvisor.
Nice way to walk around Mass Ave
A fun way to explore the Mass Ave area. As my daughter said (she and I did the puzzles together), it was a good way to get our steps in for the day. It was over 90 degrees when we did the tour, so we were always looking for shade. Stopped at Needlers across from St Mary’s church for refreshments. You can park on the Street next to the fireman’s museum for $1.25/hour. Lots of places to eat and drink in the vicinity.
Response from the operator: Thanks for exploring Mass Ave with us! I'm so glad to hear it was a fun way to get your steps in together, even in that 90-degree heat. Stopping for refreshments at Needler's was definitely a smart move. Hope you and your daughter will tackle another mystery in a new city with us soon! – Founder of Questo

Difficult
I found this very difficult to understand between finding a start button for the clues and the lack of information leading up to the next quest. Gave up after 4 puzzles
Response from the operator: I am truly sorry that the app was difficult to navigate and that the lack of information led you to give up. We want to understand exactly where the confusion started so we can improve the experience for everyone. Please email us at explore@questoapp.com so we can look into this and offer you a free quest to try us again!

Why this scores 47
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Indianapolis.
How much does Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game cost?
+
Prices start at $6 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Indianapolis usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Indianapolis is not rushed.
Is Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Indianapolis, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Indianapolis can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Indianapolis and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Indianapolis Murder Mystery Quest Outdoor Detective Escape Game start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Indianapolis within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Indianapolis?
+
Indianapolis, IN packs its best experiences into walkable neighborhoods, local food, and day trips nearby. Outty ranks every bookable tour and activity in Indianapolis by rating quality, review depth, booking demand and value, so you can see the standouts before you book. On Outty we rank every Indianapolis experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Indianapolis Mobile Pub Tour and Experience, Indy Walking Tours, Wicked Wraiths of White River: Indianapolis Ghost Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Indianapolis?
+
Spring and fall bring the best weather and lighter crowds in Indianapolis, while summer has the widest choice of tours and evening activities. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Indianapolis?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
