Frequently asked questions
Want to escape the usual Singapore sightseeing?
Walk this quest and slip into a sci-fi thriller: trace anomalies across Merlion Park, stare over colonial bridges, and explore alternate dimensions messing with the city’s history. It turns iconic views into puzzle scenes.
I’ve seen the Merlion and Marina Bay—what’s something unexpected to do?
Step into a sci-fi mystery across Singapore’s Civic District. This quest sends you chasing strange “rifts” through colonial buildings, quiet courtyards, and riverside views, revealing stories hidden behind the postcard skyline.
Can friends or workmates turn this into a fun team outing?
Yeah, split into squads or work together to track down the alternations before the “universe breaks.” Compare theories, laugh over bizarre clues, and see side alleys most only pass by. Great for bonding or just messing around.
Will I see Singapore’s famous landmarks here?
Yes. You’ll pass Merlion Park, St. Andrew’s Cathedral, National Gallery, and more—but also explore hidden bridges, colonial structures, and lesser-known stories that locals often skip.
Is this a good idea for a date with a twist?
Yes. Start at Sir Stamford Raffles statue, then follow clues through National Gallery and St. Andrew’s while light fades—a perfect mix of romance, mystery, and dramatic cityscape.
