We've turned the University of Colorado Boulder into an exciting outdoor mystery adventure! Our app combines the thrill of a Scavenger Hunt with the clever puzzles of an Escape Room, leading you to 9 iconic spots around campus. The challenge? Chip the Buffalo, CU Boulder’s beloved mascot, has gone missing, and it’s up to you to bring him home! As a member of the Flatiron Sleuths, the best detective agency in town, you’ll team up with your trusty Basset Hound, Archie, to track down clues and unravel the mystery. Along the way, you’ll explore legendary landmarks like Norlin Library, Macky Auditorium, and the Buffalo Statue, all while learning fascinating campus trivia. Get ready to walk about 3 miles as you follow the trail, crack the case, and restore campus morale. You can play solo or as a group, and the entire adventure should take around 90 minutes—but feel free to go at your own pace. This adventure is not wheelchair friendly due to the hilly campus, so plan accordingly!

Q&A

Q: Is this adventure suitable for kids, and are there any age restrictions?

A: The University of Colorado Boulder Campus Adventure is great for families! While there aren't strict age restrictions, it's best suited for kids aged 8 and up who can read and solve puzzles. Younger kids might enjoy coming along as long as an adult is helping them out. Just keep in mind that the campus can be hilly, so wear comfy shoes!

Q: What should we wear for this adventure? Any tips on what to bring?

A: Definitely wear comfortable shoes since you'll be walking around 3 miles. Dress in layers, too, because Boulder’s weather can be unpredictable! I'd recommend bringing a water bottle and maybe a small backpack for snacks. Also, don’t forget sunscreen if it’s sunny!

Q: What if we need to reschedule our adventure? Is that easy to do?

A: You can definitely reschedule your adventure! Just reach out to the provider through their website or app. They’re usually pretty flexible about it, but it's good to check their policy in case of any last-minute changes. I had to shift mine once and it was super easy.
