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!)

Stroll through the historic Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego, experiencing what was once home to sailors, working girls, and bustling industry. Crack codes and solve riddles to learn stories about the history of this colorful district.

Are you ready to rediscover San Diego?

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.
