Despre acest quest

Step into the winding paths of Homewood Cemetery, where stories rest beneath stone and branches whisper tales of the past. Branches and Bones is a puzzle-filled walking quest through one of Pittsburgh’s most historically rich and surprisingly alive—green spaces.

Uncover forgotten lives, solve nature-based riddles, and piece together a legacy of resilience, invention, and mystery. With each stop, you’ll meet the city’s quiet legends, steel barons, singers, centenarians, and ancient trees that have witnessed it all. This isn’t just a cemetery walk, it’s a living tribute to the people (and plants) who shaped Pittsburgh.
