A fun walk around downtown

Maria_P, May 2025

Prepare to walk a lot, so wear comfortable shoes! The instructions were clear, and the highlights were interesting if you want to learn about some of the city's iconic landmarks.

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you so much for your review! We're glad you enjoyed exploring downtown Chicago with us. Great tip about the comfy shoes—there’s definitely a lot of ground (and clues) to cover! We’re happy to hear the instructions were clear and that the landmarks caught your interest. Hope to see you on another quest soon!

Overall I would not purchase again in Chicago

LyndaL_L, Jul 2024

At first the quest started out good until we ran into construction areas where things were being blocked. We had to use a clue/hint reveal answer which started taking the fun out of the game. We decided to continue anyways and had a problem getting into range of the water fountain. Had to use an expand radius. There were 4 of us in the group and like to get everything correct without using "points", this made the game more difficult when one person couldn't get game reconnected since she was not able to go back to last location and not be able to reach the fountain again to restart game because she was not in radius and we weren't allowed to climb into the fountain area. So we all just left the game from there.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by construction areas and technical difficulties with connectivity and range issues, which affected your experience.

We appreciate your understanding and hope to make your future experiences with us more enjoyable.

Not worth the time and money

Joyce_S, Aug 2022

There were several interesting things to see, but we missed others. The instructions for how to get from one site to another were miserable. The "challenge" was full of silly questions - not worth the trouble of trying to figure them out.

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Thank you for taking time to give us your feedback. We are sorry that you had a negative experience. Our goal is the total satisfaction of our customers and to provide positive experience. We hope to see you giving a try playing one of our games in the future.
