About this quest

This game is a journey through the development of Boston’s waterfront. 

You’ll start by learning about the controversial infrastructure that lead to the building of the Rose Kennedy Greenway. You'll walk along the water front and make your way to the North End, a 19th-century neighborhood in the heart of Boston. 

Come explore the art, architecture, and infrastructure that have been built, restored, or lost over the past two centuries, shaping the city we see today.

Highlights

  • The Rose Kennedy Greenway - A 1.5-mile park with promenades, fountains, and a carousel built after the old highway was removed.

  • The Waterfront - Once a bustling hub of trade, now a lively spot for public recreation.

  • The North End – Boston’s oldest residential neighborhood, full of 19th-century charm and hidden stories.

The mission: Your story in Boston

Patriot, or Pat for short, is a lost ghost haunted by fragments of who he once was. He knows he was born and raised here, and has a fierce hatred of monarchy, but his name and home have vanished from memory. 

Trapped between eras, Pat must comb the city’s streets and uncover clues hidden in Boston’s architecture and art to piece together his identity.  

If Pat fails to remember who he is, he may remain lost forever. Travel into Boston's past and help Pat reclaim his story before it fades away.
