The mission: Your story in London
You decide to go for a walk to build up an appetite. Besides, you canât see The Elusive Crossing anywhere, so you wonât be able to eat yet anyway!
Follow the directions, solve the clues and hopefully youâll arrive just in time.
For every stage, there are step-by-step picture directions to swipe through at the top of the screen, with arrows showing exactly where to go. For those that prefer text, you can also read the instructions, or even use the mapping function.
Except for a couple, most of the clues are fairly simple, but the answers are all visible from the points where you'll be standing at each stage.
There's also a hint available for each puzzle which will point you in the right direction and provide a handy image.
Remember though, the journey IS the destination! So take time to enjoy the sights, smells, and sounds in this lovely part of London.
One last thing before I send you on your way: from time to time, parts of the route are temporarily changed/closed for major events, or improvement works to benefit all visitors. If this happens, please try not to let it frustrate you too much, just use the map function to find an alternative route or enjoy whatever part of London you're in. You can still continue the story on the phone using the hints but please let us know what happened using 'Report a problem' feature (so we can fix it or alert others). In return, we'll apologise and compensate you with one of our other excellent quests for free.
Now, touch Continue if you're up for hunting out that food!
