Such an outdoor escape game strengthens the mind and body and can even be played by 20 people or more at the same time without spatial restrictions! How fortunate that the escape room games that have been created in every major city in the world can also be played outdoors in the fresh air!
An outdoor escape game is the ideal leisure activity for families, company workforces and groups of friends in the warmer months of the year. Here you can read which problems you can solve by booking an outdoor escape game!
An outdoor escape game solves the following problems:
Problem #1: Nobody likes activities in stuffy indoor spaces!
Especially in summer, it is almost impossible to organize team events indoors.
As there are far fewer sunny days in our latitudes anyway, any outdoor activity in the fresh air – such as an exciting game – is the ideal way to spend unforgettable hours with friends, work colleagues or family.
Exceptions to this are, of course, ice rinks, cool cellar rooms or OPOLUM‘s Hamburg Escape Room, where the temperatures are cooler than outside due to its location in a warehouse in the middle of the historic Speicherstadt.
Problem #2: Soporific sightseeing tours
The classic city tour in hop-on hop-off buses with boring lists of historical facts from a tape recorder or with more – or usually less – original tour guides on foot are increasingly being replaced by an outdoor escape game.
This combination of games, fun and adventure with interesting stories and anecdotes from the past make getting to know a new environment an unforgettable experience.
Outdoor escape games combine entertainment with all sorts of interesting facts and are therefore known as edutainment, i.e. the perfect combination of education and entertainment.
The Outdoor Escape Game Hamburg from OPOLUM is the best provider for the combination of city history and escape room. From the historic Speicherstadt to the Elbphilharmonie concert hall, you will learn the most important facts in a fun way.
Problem #3: Large groups cannot play at the same time
In theory, it would be possible to play an outdoor escape game with an unlimited number of participants. However, above a certain group size, it becomes quite confusing and less fun.
But there is also a very simple solution to this problem – the group is split into two or thirds etc. and all teams then play against each other and against the clock! For example, companies, JGAs, families and even school classes can play at the same time.
Problem #4: Not in the mood for the classic stag party
Many JGAs often involve excessive amounts of alcohol and the organization of more or less embarrassing games.
Many brides and grooms-to-be are usually uncomfortable and unimaginative with classic drinking games played to the cheers of their friends.
An outdoor escape game, on the other hand, is always met with enthusiasm and is particularly interesting when it takes place in an environment that none of the participants know exactly – for example, in another city.
It’s a fun way to get to know interesting places and stories and there are plenty of fun things to talk about later in the evening.

Problem #5: Boring company events
Responsible employers know that a company workforce can only work optimally if all employees get on well and treat each other with respect.
In order to maintain or intensify the positive atmosphere within a team, more or less regular events are therefore organized. However, these are often limited to joint dinners and mostly boring workshops.
Here too, an outdoor escape game is the ideal alternative to the traditional.
Problem #6: Many activities are not suitable for the whole family
Thanks to an outdoor escape game, a Sunday outing with the family can consist of more than just putting your beloved offspring on some ring game and posting photos of it.
Such an outdoor game in a real environment is not just a short experience, but involves the family spending around 120 minutes with an intensive exchange of thoughts and feelings.
In any case, an outdoor escape game suitable for young and old alike is an impressive, perhaps never-before-experienced feeling of having successfully completed an adventure together. But of course everything happens with the help of modern communication technology 😎.
There is no time to lose – the days are getting shorter and shorter!
Before you all have to go back to the onion-skin tactics, you should take advantage of the remaining warm season and book an outdoor escape game, because the time slots are getting fewer and fewer as the days get shorter. Here you can see at a glance which dates are still available for an unforgettable outdoor escape game in Hamburg’s Speicherstadt.
