Are you ready to save the world?

How does the Outdoor Escape Room in Joensuu work?

Wondering how an Outdoor Escape Room in Joensuu even works? It's simple – yet ingeniously thought out! All you need is your smartphone and the free myCityQuest App. No special equipment, no complicated preparations. Here's how your adventure starts:

  1. Book tickets: One player books the tickets via the myCityQuest website and loads them into their wallet in the app.
  2. Configure the tour: The ticket holder sets the number of players, team division, desired tour, and language.
  3. Join the lobby: A Lobby QR code appears in the app. All other participants scan this code to join the lobby – quick, easy, and without waiting time.
  4. Choose a team: All players choose their team and join it.
  5. Select a role: Now it gets exciting! Each player decides on an individual role – for example, Codebreaker, Foreign Spy, or IT Expert. During the game, each receives challenges perfectly suited to their role.
  6. Start the mission: Everyone starts together – and from this moment, every second counts!

The special thing: You are completely flexible. There are no fixed start times and no guide rushing you around. You set your pace, take breaks whenever you want, and enjoy the atmosphere of Joensuu. The Escape Room outdoors in Joensuu works entirely digitally via the app – with GPS navigation, interactive elements, and a story that will keep you hooked.

Good to know

You don't need local knowledge in Joensuu! The app reliably navigates you through the city. The Outdoor Escape Game Joensuu is therefore perfect for visitors and locals alike.

What to expect at the Outdoor Escape Game in Joensuu

Forget everything you know about classic Escape Rooms. At the Outdoor Escape Game Joensuu, you're not locked in four walls – the entire city becomes your playground. And what a playground it is! As you walk through the streets of Joensuu, perhaps past the imposing Joensuun kaupungintalo or along the Pielisjoki with a view of the Pielisjoenlinna, the app constantly provides you with new missions, clues, and challenges.

What exactly awaits you? An explosive mix of:

  • Tricky puzzles and secret codes – Decode cryptic messages and crack encryptions that would make even experienced codebreakers sweat.
  • Exciting minigames – Interactive challenges directly in the app that require skill, logic, and teamwork.
  • Virtual Reality rooms – Dive into virtual rooms via the app, examine evidence, and find hidden clues in an augmented reality.
  • Virtual contacts – Meet with informants, listen to intercepted conversations, and decide whom you can trust.
  • Drone chases and raids – Plan operations against enemy locations together and avoid surveillance drones.
  • Role-based challenges – Depending on whether you're operating as a Foreign Spy, IT Expert, or Codebreaker, you get individual tasks.

One key point that makes the Outdoor Escape in Joensuu so special: The story is completely independent and not tied to the city's landmarks. This means you can fully concentrate on the mission without constantly having to read information boards. You're not a tourist on a city tour – you're an agent on a secret mission. And that's what makes the difference! The city becomes an atmospheric backdrop, the stage for your very own action-adventure. You walk past the beautiful Pielisensuun kirkko and don't ask, "When was this built?" but "Is the next clue hidden here?". This is immersion on a whole new level.

The Story of the Outdoor Escape Game in Joensuu

The situation is serious. Deadly serious. A megalomaniac cyberterrorist, together with a highly dangerous criminal hacker network, has hacked into the NATO Mainframe. The unthinkable has happened: They have gained control over nuclear missiles and threaten to plunge the world into absolute chaos. Governments are powerless, intelligence agencies overwhelmed – and time is running out.

The only hope? You and your team.

As members of a secret special unit, you are activated and sent to the streets of Joensuu. Your mission: Track down the cyberterrorist, dismantle his network, and regain control over the missiles – before it's too late. On your way through the city, you meet undercover contacts who provide you with explosive information. You will be pursued by enemy drones, have to plan and execute raids on enemy locations, search virtual rooms for evidence, and decrypt intercepted communications.

But beware: In the world of espionage, nothing is as it seems. Double agents lurk everywhere, false leads have been laid, and every wrong decision could have fatal consequences. Trust your instincts, use your individual role skills, and work together as a team – because only together can you successfully complete this mission.

Our Tip

If you're playing in a larger group, you can easily split your team into several smaller teams! This creates an exciting competition – which team will save the world first? At the end, compare your high scores and crown the ultimate agents of Joensuu!
