Challenge your family to stroll through the historic French Quarter: crack codes, solve riddles, learn stories and have a ton of fun!
About this Event

If you’re tired of just wandering around aimlessly and hoping for the best, then get ready for a city adventure that will blow your mind (just figuratively - we are legally obligated to mention this!)

Enjoy a postcard walk of historic downtown Charleston. You will see houses, churches, graveyards, and enjoy stories of some of the people and places that helped shape this city’s rich history. You’ll discover the vibrant story of New Orleans through some of its most famous places—from St. Louis Cathedral to Café du Monde. Look for hints and solve riddles to unlock stories about iconic landmarks in the quarter renowned for its voodoo culture.

Are you ready to rediscover New Orleans' French Quarter?

We’ve got puzzles, riddles, and challenges that will make you scratch your head, laugh out loud, and maybe even question your sanity a little bit.

You will also visit cool places in the city and learn their fun or weird stories.

Strap on your walking shoes and let’s hit the streets like a pack of wacky wild dingos.

And don’t worry, we promise not to leave you stranded in some sketchy back alley - unless, of course, you’re into that kind of thing.

We’ve hosted 50.000 scavenger hunts so far. So, we’re pretty sure you will absolutely love it too!

If you don’t, let us know and we’ll live the rest of our lives in shame.

AGE RECOMMENDATION❓

People of all ages can attend the event, from munchkins to grandmas. Kids under 10 can tag along too, with the mention that they usually don’t interact with the puzzles and challenges in the app as much as the others, as they may be too complex for their age.


WHAT'S NOT INCLUDED❓

The event will not feature live actors or decorations, as the entire fun is delivered by the app only. The puzzles and riddles make use of the environment around you, so, during the game, you will observe and interact with the buildings, statues and murals you'll discover along the trail as you follow the clues.
