A note from Ryan Taylor

“I'm a world traveler of 52 countries, living in 3 throughout my life. I have a BA and MA in Urban Studies and love nothing more than "reading" cities as I explore them. I'm thrilled to present my multiple series of Questo tours to all players.”

The mission: Your story in Knoxville

 You're a University of Tennessee student using AI to shortcut your research paper when something hijacks your phone — a rogue surveillance program named Director Zero. 

Shut down years ago for investigating the wrong people, it’s awake again and needs your help. Together, you’ll uncover a buried crime, piece by piece, across Knoxville’s campus and World’s Fair Park. 

Director Zero remembers the past — but not who killed him. That’s your job now. He’ll be watching, listening, and never letting go.
