The Cleveland Quest Scavenger Hunt

See the best of downtown Cleveland…

…on a whirlwind scavenger hunt in and around Public Square. But if you think this is going to be like an ordinary scavenger hunt, think again. To win this game, you’ll have to follow clues to fascinating places in the city and collaborate with your team to answer tricky, humorous questions about the cool stuff you discover. You’ll also need to find and create unusual items, take creative photos, and locate the Hunt Host to complete a bonus challenge.

You might answer such questions as…

  • On Superior Avenue, near East 3rd Street, find a scantily clad man resting on a rail. You could say he’s particularly hot. What does he represent? Answer: In the statue of Commerce, the naked man represents Steam.
  • Inside the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument, find a group of 3D women who help a man take it lying down. Below stores, what two words sound like a website address? Answer: “Sanitary Com.,” written on a box in a large, dramatic war scene.

The questions are designed to be answered only when you’re standing in the right place, looking at the right thing. Follow our clever clues—and use your wits—and you’ll be all set. The game brings out the best in each team member, as well as the city, with challenges that will tickle your brain and your funny bone.

The Murder Mystery Mayhem Scavenger Hunt

Beware: there’s a killer in your midst

Someone playing this game with you is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. His or her good side knows nothing about the evil side—and the evil side has challenged you to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To reveal the killer’s identity, you’ll have to complete a series of photo challenges, solve interlocking puzzles, decipher coded text messages, and more. If you succeed, you get the antidote. If you fail…well, you know.

If you love escape-room games, you’ll love this scavenger hunt. But even better, you won’t be locked in a room for an hour: this game can be played almost anywhere. 

An in-person murder mystery for any location!

We have a variety of versions, depending on where you want to play. Such as…

  • A city, town, or neighborhood
  • A science or history museum
  • A zoo or aquarium
  • An office building
  • A school or campus
