Häufig gestellte Fragen
What’s the mission?
You’re guarding a historical painting at a museum in the French Quarter. One night, it vanishes. Your boss is away. It’s on you to follow hidden clues through the timeless streets, untangle riddles, and recover the treasure before the secret leaks.
Who will have the most fun with it?
Great for couples wanting a sweet adventure, groups of friends who enjoy puzzles and laughter, and curious families who want history plus mystery plus beignets along the way.
Best time to play — day, evening, or night?
Evening or twilight has a special vibe. The Quarter’s lights, the music, the sounds—it all kicks up the atmosphere. Daytime works too if you want more energy and less mystery.
How about families or kids? Will they enjoy it?
Yes, especially older kids who like stories. The storyline keeps everyone curious. Little ones might need breaks, especially when walking long. Also good to go somewhat earlier in the day.
What sights will be part of the route?
You’ll go through places like Jackson Square, St. Louis Cathedral, The Presbytère, Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop Bar, and you’ll finish at Central Grocery & Deli. Plus little streets, hidden spots, views over the Mississippi.
Is it expensive / worth the price per device?
Yes. Given the time, the puzzle/story blend, the landmarks, the experience—it gives more value than just seeing tourist spots. Shared with someone, it's even better.
