À propos de cette aventure

Step into the halls of one of America’s oldest natural history museums, where ancient bones, glittering gems, and mysterious specimens hide more than just knowledge—they hide secrets. 

Your challenge? Find them all before your friends do! Follow curious clues, solve clever puzzles, and race through exhibits in a fast-paced, real-world adventure. But there’s a twist: the game ends at the hidden bronze tortoise… and no one knows where it is. This quest is perfect for curious minds and competitive spirits—whether you're a family, a group of friends, or a solo explorer on a mission. 

Discover Philadelphia’s wildest secrets—one clue at a time!

Est-ce pour vous ?

Pour qui c'est

Families and groups of friends visiting the Academy of Natural Sciences get a race of about 40 minutes, solving puzzles among the dioramas on three floors and through Dinosaur Hall to a hidden bronze tortoise. Children under 12 should play with a parent beside them. Anyone hoping for an outdoor walk through the city, or not planning to buy museum admission, should pick another quest.

Ce qui rend cette quête unique

Faits saillants

  • View plants & animals from the ancient past to the recent past to the present, and that's just the stuff on display!

  • This museum holds the first dinosaur that was ever on display in the US!

  • This museum is primarily geared towards older kids, so parents with children under the age of five, the Academy probably won't be for you.

Quelques réponses avant de partir

Questions fréquemment posées

Is there a scavenger hunt at the natural science museum in Philadelphia?
Yes. This game is played inside the Academy of Natural Sciences. Clues lead you past the dioramas on the third, second and first floors, then through Dinosaur Hall and its mezzanine, with puzzles set in the exhibits. The game ends at a hidden bronze tortoise you have to find.
Do we need a separate museum ticket?
Yes. The game does not include entry to the Academy of Natural Sciences, so you need to buy the museum entrance ticket separately. The game starts at the museum itself, so buy your admission first, then open the app once you are inside.
How long does it take, and is it a good choice for a rainy day?
Plan on about 40 minutes. The whole route stays inside the museum, moving between floors rather than across the city, so the weather does not matter. You can pause the game and continue later if you want to spend longer at an exhibit.
Is it suitable for kids?
Yes, it suits families, and the dioramas and Dinosaur Hall give children plenty to look at while they hunt for clues. Kids under 12 should be guided by their parents, who can help with the puzzles and keep the group together between floors.
Can we play as a group and race each other?
Yes. The game is built as a race to find the secrets before your friends do, so it works well for families and friend groups. One ticket covers your whole group, there is no live guide and no set start time, so you begin whenever you are ready.
