Taipei Immersive Escape Games: Which City Scavenger Hunt is Best?6 Taipei Urban Puzzle Games Reviewed

This time, Xiangxiang explored the Taipei Zoo with a Wan Lifang puzzle pack. The design was simple yet convenient, even coming with its own tote bag to carry the envelopes for each stage.

Running out of phone battery is a common issue with outdoor puzzle games, but Wan Lifang's packs only require one phone to start solving, no matter how many players there are. That's a huge plus!

What Xiangxiang liked most about Wan Lifang was that each stage provides hints for players, making these Taipei Escape Rooms perfect for beginners.

The puzzles covered not only the zoo's art installations but also the information plaques around the park. This allowed Xiangxiang to learn fun facts about animals while exploring the zoo!

Wanzhuan City's puzzle kit is the most substantial outdoor real-life puzzle game Tessa has ever played! Carrying a large box with the Pokebear design on the street makes you feel even more immersed in the game.

The "Dadaocheng Incredible Adventure" we played this time cleverly utilized Dadaocheng's unique atmosphere and local characteristics, making us marvel as we played!

However, the puzzle design itself is a bit difficult. For some tasks, Tessa and her friends really racked their brains and couldn't solve them without hints. This is more recommended for players with some experience in real-life puzzle games or those who enjoy challenging their brain to the limit.

Find a holiday and gather a few friends, bring your phone, power bank, plenty of water, and sun protection, and experience the joy of treasure hunting and exploring a corner of the city together!

I'm a huge fan of Riddle City, and I've played almost all of their games. The reasonable prices, balanced difficulty, and rich content are all reasons why. Plus, you can see your own ranking and other players' scores on the Riddle City app, which really motivates you to play!

Beyond just solving puzzles, you can also explore famous historical sites with your friends. Most of Riddle City's games are walkable, with only a few locations requiring a bus ride. And remember, you'll need to be on-site to observe clues and solve the puzzles!

Their recently launched "Urban Mystery" series is another masterpiece. This series delves deeply into the history of each location, and after finding the clues, you'll gain a much deeper understanding of the area. While it leans more towards plot-driven deduction with fewer traditional puzzles, it hasn't diminished my love for the series. I wholeheartedly recommend this Taipei Escape Rooms venue!

Sacred Relic Barrier – Qingguang Record is a very accessible, compact Taipei Escape Room experience, though seasoned puzzle masters might find it a bit too easy.

What truly impressed our mystery shopper was discovering so many fascinating historical sites and beautiful landmarks hidden around the Qingguang Market area, places she usually just rushed past.

For those who prefer a relaxed pace and are new to these outdoor games, this one offers plenty of opportunities to eat, drink, and unwind. The game pack even includes discount coupons for local venues, making it a great value!

Just be aware that each puzzle can only be answered once, and using hints will deduct points, so be careful not to enter the wrong answer! Our mystery shopper was logged out three or four times during her game, so we recommend saving your game serial number in your phone's notes.

Bendian Studio's "The Punisher" is an outdoor real-life puzzle game based on a true story. The game package is minimalist, and Tessa initially thought it would be a simple puzzle. However, as she delved deeper into the game, she discovered that the world of "The Punisher" was far more profound than she imagined.

The game features an actual forum interface where players can post, creating an incredibly immersive experience. This is the brilliance of Bendian Studio's "Play the Story" series: it truly lets you "play the story" rather than just "watch the story."

During her playthrough, Tessa was not only amazed by the unique design of "The Punisher" but also felt the immense power of the internet, where moral boundaries seemed to blur.

Which voices online are real? Who deserves to be punished? And who has the right to be the punisher? This game blends current events with moderately challenging puzzles and many "original" riddles. Tessa highly recommends it to all fans of real-life puzzle solving.
