The itinerary

Day 01

Book your way

Bring your own group and keep it private, or book an open departure and be teamed up with other players. Teams are 2 to 6, and solo play works too.

Meet at Plaza Cervantes

It is the only stop you know in advance. From there your phone takes over: no guide, no clipboard, nobody talking at you.

Four stops, one story

Each stop is revealed as you play. The route is built to be walked, and a bus or taxi is fine if you prefer.

Missions made for talking

Some need a sharp eye, some need the whole team, and most end with everyone laughing. Anything your team would rather skip can be skipped.

Save the best for last

The final stop is chosen for a reason, and the story saves its best mission for it. We will not spoil it.

Take the story home

You leave with the photos and a story you will be retelling for a while.

Know before you go

You stay with your team for the whole quest. The route never separates players, and no mission sends you anywhere on your own.
Every stop is an outdoor public place that is open and in use: no private addresses, no restricted areas, no isolated spots.
Evening departures are only offered where every stop on the route is lit and open at that hour.
You can switch your booking to a private group at any time before departure, so only the people you booked with can join.
Every mission can be skipped, with no penalty and no explanation needed. Your team decides who appears on camera, and recap videos stay private unless you share them.
If you ever feel uncomfortable, you can stop and leave at any point. Contact us and our support team will make it right.
Follow local laws, posted signs, and pedestrian rules at all times.
Do not enter restricted areas or take unnecessary risks to complete a mission.
Pause the experience whenever conditions make it unsafe to continue.
Players remain responsible for their own personal belongings.
