What to Expect

This self-guided walking tour in Pittsburgh combines exploration, storytelling, and puzzle-solving into one unique experience. As you navigate through the city, you will discover 12 carefully selected locations, each revealing a piece of the story.

The entire quest takes approximately 3840 minutes to complete and covers 3.6km on foot. You will move at your own pace, with the freedom to pause whenever you want to take photos, grab a coffee, or simply soak in the atmosphere.

Each location features a challenge or puzzle that unlocks the next chapter of your story. These challenges are designed to be fun and engaging while teaching you about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Pittsburgh.

No tour guide needed – your smartphone becomes your guide. The Questo app provides directions, shares stories, and presents challenges along the way.

Höhepunkte

  • Explore the park that city officials built instead of a Frank Lloyd Wright megastructure

  • Step beneath the clock that residents have long challenged each other to kiss their butts under

  • Let the benches watch you at what’s been locally dubbed: “Eyeball Park”

Die Mission: Deine Geschichte in Pittsburgh

You play as a groggy butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, excited to escape the city in an upcoming migration.

But you missed it, and worse yet, you see mysterious, transparent buildings and people glitching in and out of existence on top of the park you call home, getting realer and realer the longer you watch.

Flutter around downtown to figure out what’s happening and save the Steel City from chaos, and feel the delicate strands connecting every era of Pittsburgh along the way.

The quest was good. It took us to new stops along the way and always integrated the environment into the clues. The only part we had an issue with was the Roberto Clemente Bridge stop.
