Eskap Lons-le-Saunier , Outdoor escape game in Lons-le-Saunier, France
Eskap Lons-le-Saunier is an outdoor escape game where players walk through the city streets solving puzzles using a mobile app on their phones. The route covers about 2 kilometers and connects challenges with landmarks around the town center.
This type of game emerged from the growing popularity of escape rooms across Europe in the 2010s. It brought the concept outdoors and merged technology with exploring the streets of Lons-le-Saunier.
Teams collaborate to decode mysteries and solve riddles while discovering local landmarks and streets throughout the two-hour urban adventure.
Groups can start at any time from a central meeting point and need only a smartphone with active internet connection. It helps to wear comfortable shoes and check the weather beforehand, since the game takes place entirely outdoors.
Each player receives different tasks on their phone rather than identical challenges, meaning teams must coordinate but also explore different routes through town. This makes each game slightly different and encourages fresh perspectives on familiar places.
