CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING

The story starts here.

"When I die I will be reborn in paradise, and all those I have killed will become my slaves."

Decades ago, the Zodiac Killer carved those words into history then vanished into the fog. The case went cold. The city moved on. Until last night.

A high-security police vault has been breached. The thief ignored the cash and the narcotics but he took only one thing: the original Zodiac evidence files. Now a copycat calling himself The Disciple has scattered the 1969 artifacts across the city and marked innocent citizens for "collection," determined to finish what his Master started.

You're on the task force. Twelve locations, each tied to a Zodiac sign. No set order, only your instincts. And beware: some of them are traps designed to waste your precious time.

🔎 Crack the Zodiac's infamous ciphers, recover the stolen artifacts, and save the victims before the clock runs out. The ink is fresh, the knife is sharp, and the city is screaming for answers.

What makes this quest special

Highlights

  • A copycat is finishing what the Zodiac started, and The Disciple is working his way through Brisbane.

  • Decode the real thing, cryptic notes, punched cards and symbol-filled messages built from the Zodiac's actual letters.

  • Twelve marked locations across 2 km from Albert Street, past King George Square, St Stephen's Cathedral, and City Botanic Gardens, in no fixed order, and some of the pins are traps.

  • For true crime readers, played with your partner, your friends, or on your own if the ciphers are the draw.

  • Just your phone, start any time, and trust your gut more than the map.
