Mysteries on the Move: Scavenger Hunt in Charleston

DISCOVER CHARLESTON IN A WHOLE NEW WAY: BY SOLVING A M**der MYSTERY!

You will be tasked with solving the M**der of silent movie director Rex King, who was visiting Charleston while filming on location in 1926. Gather the clues – outdoors and on the move – while visiting historical sites throughout the city!

Using your smart phone, you will be out and about, while finding out whodunnit. During this game played at your own pace, you will venture to several historic sites, gathering clues along the way. This game is great fun while checking out the sites on vacation or just getting to know your home town better. Your whole group of friends can play with just one purchase.

At each stop, you will search for the passcode to open up your next set of clues by reading readily accessible (and free) historical markers. Stops included on this hunt include: Marion Square, Riviera Theater, and City Market (just to name a few). This 2.5 mile walk will visit 10 stops of historical significance, at which point you will assemble your clues, submit your response, and find out the solution!
