If you’re looking for fun things to do in Minneapolis, then The North Loop is your neighborhood! Tucked between Minneapolis’ bustling downtown business district and the mighty Mississippi River, the North Loop area is alive with repurposed old-world factory and warehouse buildings and modern-day boutique retailers and restaurants.
The North loop is full of fun options for the modern-day adventurer. From family-friendly parks, concert venues, and museums, to shopping and ice cream parlors. Coffee houses and craft brew pubs; there is something for everyone to enjoy.
Speaking of fun things to do in Minneapolis, why not try something new and adventurous? The North Loop also has a Trapped Puzzle Rooms location, with four exciting and immersive experiences you can try. Reserve a spot by contacting us, and soon you’ll be on your way to adventure.
What’s A Puzzle Room?
Puzzle Rooms, also known as escape rooms, are the next step in the evolution of modern day fantasy adventure. Get out from behind the video game screen, bring your choose-your-own-adventure book to life, and jump into your own real-life action-adventure or mystery movie!
Of all the fun things that you can do in Minneapolis, puzzle rooms are one of the best ways to enter a world of wonder, challenge and mystery and share the adventure with family and friends!
By the way, puzzle rooms are an excellent choice for company team-building outings in the city. An escape room is also a great way to meet new people and make friends. Working together in a group with a common goal is a wonderful way to strengthen bonds and create memories, whether it’s with family, friends, or new people you just met.
You’ll collaborate on a mission to search for clues, piece together puzzles, decipher codes, and put your problem-solving skills to the test to solve the mystery and “escape” your puzzle room before time runs out!
How Do Puzzle Rooms Work?
It’s no mystery that puzzle room experiences provide challenges and loads of fun. But how does this whole puzzle room thing work? While escape rooms aren’t easy, the concept is simple.
There are three main parts to your Trapped Puzzle Rooms Experience:
You have a mission
You might use your magic powers to stop an evil wizard from unleashing dark forces upon the world, and you must defeat his minion one clue after another before it’s too late. You are sent on a quest to bring back your deposed Queen before the realm of the North overtakes the entire kingdom. You might have to put on your detective hat and piece together clues to unravel the crime of the century before the villain escapes with untold treasure. You and your team of adventurers must work together to fulfill your given mission before time runs out!
You have a set amount of time
You and your team of collaborators must work together to solve puzzles, piece-together brain teasers, uncover hidden clues, and gather all of the needed evidence, step-by-step, in a set amount of time, to successfully escape your puzzle room. Your escape room experience can last anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the location and room you choose. This added pressure of conquering your puzzle room with a looming time limit adds to the tension and excitement of the experience and often brings out the best in participants.
You have to find clues
Search high and low, get creative, work together, and think outside-the-box to find objects, solve puzzles, and figure out the mystery of your room. One clue will lead you and your team to the next piece of evidence until you find the hidden key that will allow you to “escape” your room before it’s too late!
Fun For Families
At Trapped Puzzle Rooms, our escape room experiences are designed with each family member in mind. Each room contains puzzles of all difficulty levels, and clues that require different viewpoints to locate and solve. The collaboration needed to escape your puzzle room before time runs out is one of the dynamics that fosters teamwork, excellent communication skills, and family bonding. So bring the kids, include your teenagers, and don’t leave the in-laws behind. The Trapped Puzzle Room experience is fun for the entire family!
