a couple of small hangups, but wow what a great time! It really involves a lot of the small aren’t takes place in and is very up to date! look around the clues are there bidding in plain sight as a business sign, a piece of art, simple graffiti and even well know landmarks! Great job!
★★★★★
Super fun it did need a little more interaction with the locations. Meaning the store owners shops, or buildings needed to be part of the experience. They were most certainly part of the experience just not involved in the gaming aspects. Super fun it was truly enjoyed
★★★★★
Such a fun experience! We got to wander around Downtown Ontario, which we've never really done and got to see the different local sights (and even stopped at some local stores to enjoy what they offer). A perfect time to explore and play detectives~
