Escape Muncie

An Escape Room is a real-life challenge experience. Teams of participants are locked in a themed room and must work as a team to solve a series of puzzles, riddles, and clues found within the room to escape in 60 minutes or less. Groups vary in size from 2 - 6 participants. Each room has a different story line that makes that particular room experience different from the others. It's unique, intellectually stimulating, and a rewarding experience for groups of all sizes and ages. Can you escape?

These rooms were so much fun to play. I have played all four rooms. The puzzles and clues make you think! The owners, Jennifer and Bruce, are fantastic people and make the game more fun when they help you out. I can't wait to see what their next room so I can play that one too.

Cardinal Greenway

Reviewed By Sightseer24941661220 - Brownsburg, United States

This was our first time on the Cardinal trail, we came for the bikefest so we enjoyed having SAG stops along the way. We did 50 miles of riding going south of the Muncie Depot, some stop and go-crossing intersections till you get south of the city limits. No real hills on our journey, for the most part the trail flat with very gradual climbs and descents. Would like to thank all the volunteers and Angie for their dedication to the trail...we'll be back!

I bet most people in Muncie don't even know this place is right here in our own backyard. Model airplane enthusiasts come from all over the world to compete every summer in model airplane racing, aerobatics and dogfighting. Took the CAP cadets who loved every minute!

My experience at DOMA was incredible. The tour guides and staff are very well versed in the art that they are talking about, and are very good at answering questions and having artistic conversations with the patrons. I went there on an educational trip, and ended up bonding with my friend, now fiancé, over our love of art, and that’s when we fell in love. Perfect for a date with somebody who appreciates art and history!!
