About this quest

Most visitors to Golden Gate Park are drawn to its feature attractions like the de Young museum, California Academy of Sciences, Botanical Gardens and sunny picnic areas. 

Since the park is larger than New York’s Central Park it is home to scores of other fascinating spots, many of them tucked away in forested corners of the park not often seen by the casual visitor. 

This quest takes you to experience ten captivating spots with messages of inequality, oppression, grief, redemption and joy that still resonate today.

The mission: Your story in San Francisco

It’s the year 1962, and you are a dangerous criminal who has just successfully broken out of Alcatraz, an impenetrable prison that housed the world's most dangerous criminals. While everyone presumed you drowned during the escape, you barely managed to make it to shore.

You head to Golden Gate Park, where pieces of your escape plan have been hidden around the park by an accomplice from the outside. You must solve the clues to find important information and tools that will help you escape the city forever.
