Great group activity

Easy to follow, learned a lot about the city. Good clues, fun to do with friends.
Wish they had this in a city closer to my home!

Fun family activity

This was a great way to see the city at your own pace. If only one person is going to view the directions, clues, and story you don’t need to pay for multiplayers.

A great way to explore the town and history

Jul 2023 • Family

This is a great way to explore Charleston with family. We love the quick challenges and puzzles, the storyline, and the history. We also liked not being tied to a big tour group and spending more time in certain areas as needed. The customer service was very polite and helpful when we were trying to figure out how to set it up.
