CONFIDENTIAL / CASE BRIEFING
The story starts here.
Enter the covert world of "The President's Conspiracy," where you are tasked with exposing The Kingmakers—a secret society that has manipulated world leaders and orchestrated global events from the shadows for centuries. A whistleblower has come forward with alarming information, thrusting you into a high-stakes game of deceit.
Your mission: stay one step ahead, decode the secrets, and unravel the conspiracy before their next grand scheme is unleashed.
Will you be the one to expose the truth and save the world from an invisible tyranny?
Oh... and don't forget to say thank you...
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Starting from LBC in Columbia, this 2.1 km walk builds a case against The Kingmakers, a secret society a whistleblower wants exposed, with codes to crack over about 90 minutes. Friends who love escape rooms, or a pair after a playful night out, can solve it at their own pace. Pick something else if you want a live guide to question or an indoor game, since every clue waits outdoors.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the Columbia secret society detective game take?
Plan on around 90 minutes to walk the 2.1 km route and solve the puzzles along the way. If you need a break for coffee or a meal, you can pause the game on your phone and continue later from where you stopped.
Where does the quest start?
The game begins at its first point, listed in the app as LBC. Once you start, the app guides you from place to place, tells the story of each stop and sets a puzzle based on what is in front of you.
Is this detective game suitable for kids?
It is written mainly for adults and works well for families with teens who enjoy codes and mysteries. The plot is a conspiracy thriller about a secret society manipulating world leaders, and the puzzles are aimed at escape room fans, so younger children may find it hard to follow.
Do we need to book a time, and can our group play together?
There is no time slot to book and no guide to meet, so you start whenever you are ready. One ticket covers your whole group, and you play on your phones as a team while walking the route together.
Is the game played outdoors, and what if it rains?
Yes, it is a self-guided walk outside through the streets of Columbia, with clues found in the places you pass. In wet weather you can pause the game and pick it up again later, so check the forecast and bring a jacket.
