Definitely Do This!
The adventure was so much fun! I was with 2 16 yr old - it's hard to find family activities that hold their attention. It took hours to complete this and they stayed involved throughout the whole thing. I will say though - they suggest a few hours to complete, it took us 2 trips and about 4 hours, including using several "hints" along the way. Maybe we aren't average but I wanted to mention it.

Challenging fun
This was a great way to see parts of Saint Louis that I wouldn’t have thought to visit. We were prepared for a LOT of walking and we were not disappointed. We covered a lot of ground! We chose the more challenging version of the game - we had to use a few hints but by and large we were able to get through it on wits alone. That’s not to say it was easy - many of the puzzles had us stumped but we eventually got them in the end. I’m giving only 4 stars — inside the game kit was a small box that held the answer to the whole thing and it was SUPPOSED to be locked with a 3 digit padlock. Unfortunately, the lock was open and rattling around it the cardboard box everything came in. Luckily enough, my husband and I are very methodical and only open envelopes and things when told to do so. Had we not done that, we would’ve seen the big reveal at the very start.

A Challenging Experience Worth Every Penny
My daughter and son-in-law found this adventure with an online search and gave it to me as a Christmas gift. We found the scenario well thought out and challenging; especially since 4 of our 5 participants did not have much knowledge about St. Louis City or Cardinal baseball player history. We did not use many of the hints and explanations, but when we did use them, they were very useful. Although I have lived in the St. Louis area for about 40 years, my family and I enjoyed learning more about St. Louis city and Cardinal baseball history and walking through less familiar parts of St. Louis. Finally, we recognize creating this adventure required a major level of effort from some very creative people and found the price very reasonable; especially when compared to a standard escape room event for 5 players. We recommended this adventure to friends and hope they, and perhaps others, will invest in an Escapely adventure and enjoy it as much as we did. Thank you Rachel, and team, for creating a challenging experience that was certainly worth every penny.

Super fun, unique way to explore St Louis
We had a lot of fun exploring St Louis whilst simultaneously solving riddles. It was a cool twist to a classic escape room and all puzzles and story were thoroughly thought out well! We had an absolute blast!

Fun challenge
This was a lot of fun! Very challenging but great. I think 2 is ideal for this. Its not big enough to share too much. Walking around was a fun addition.

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for St Louis.
How much does Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown cost?
+
Prices start at $75 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in St Louis usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 St Louis is not rushed.
Is Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in St Louis, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown?
+
Around 5 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 St Louis 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 St Louis and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Outdoor Escape Room in St. Louis - Downtown 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 St Louis 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 St Louis?
+
St Louis leads with Gateway Arch tram rides and riverboat cruises, then brewery tours, Forest Park museums, City Museum visits and Route 66 history runs. Arch tram tickets are timed entry, so we weight tours that secure them. On Outty we rank every St Louis experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lemp Haunted Neighborhood Walking Tour, St. Louis True Crime Tour: Soulard’s Murders, Mafia & Mayhem, Private Tour of St. Louis's Iconic BBQ Joints & Breweries. 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 St Louis?
+
April to June and September to October. 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 St Louis?
+
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.
