Sobre esta experiencia

 Step into the shoes of Sarah, an ordinary museum worker thrust into a spy plot on Tacoma’s streets. As you follow a trail of coded messages, you’ll uncover downtown landmarks like the Museum of Glass, Union Station, Antique Row, and the Spanish Steps, each revealing a piece of a larger conspiracy. 

Along the way you’ll learn how Tacoma’s history, art, and streets weave into the story, while testing your eye for detail and nerve for discovery. It’s part thriller, part walking tour, and all PNW.

Aspectos destacados

  • An efficient and exciting game played out while exploring Tacoma

  • Opportunities to explore antiques, art and most of all, great food and drink

  • Game starts and ends next to Light Rail line for easy path back

La misión: Tu historia en Tacoma

Your shift at the Museum of Glass gift shop ends with a stranger dropping a battered spy novel on the counter. Inside, you discover a hidden cipher — and suddenly you’re caught in a web of mercenaries, stolen military data, and coded signals scattered across downtown Tacoma. 

Enemy agents are already on the move. With only your instincts to trust, you must follow the trail, uncover the truth, and stop the hand-off before the city becomes the passageway for a global breach.
