The experience
About this quest
When a seemingly average piece of Meissen porcelain vanishes from the Cummer Museum during a night in Jacksonville, you, an FBI agent at the local field office, are called in to a case that the Museum curator seems eager to quash.
But what begins as a simple museum theft quickly spirals into something far deeper. Set against the streets, river parks, and artistic enclaves of Jacksonville’s historic Riverside neighborhood, join forces with Detective Ken Clever to uncover clues to the plot.

Is this for you?
Who it's for
Couples and families who enjoy a detective story will follow an FBI case about a missing piece of Meissen porcelain through historic Riverside, from the Cummer Museum past Memorial Park and the Five Points Lizard Mural. The puzzles are easy, and the loop takes close to two hours. Anyone wanting a live guide to question, or an indoor outing, should pick something else, as this is 3.1 km on foot outdoors.
