The mission: Your story in Toronto

You are the ghost of Rocco Perri, an infamous Canadian bootlegger who discovered a missing stash of whisky during the early years of prohibition. It was rumored to have been the finest quality ever distilled and many powerful rivals were searching for it. 

You hid the whisky but, when you went back for it, the barrels were missing. Ever since your departure from the land of the living, you’ve been roaming the streets of Toronto looking for the stash so that you can finally rest in peace.

Distillery District context

Victorian industry preserved inside a modern cultural district

The Gooderham and Worts complex grew into a major 19th-century distilling operation, leaving an unusually large collection of Victorian industrial buildings. After production ended, the site was adapted as today’s pedestrian arts and entertainment district. This quest connects the surviving industrial landscape with stories from its working past; any ghostly associations are folklore, not verified history. Playable languages: English.
