About this quest
🍀 The Case of the Lost Luck: An Outdoor Detective Mystery Game 🍀
Fortune has faltered with the mysterious disappearance of the Golden Shamrock. As luck spirals into chaos—clocks stop, signs fall, and the bakery's ovens cool—you are summoned to unravel this enigma.
Was it the reticent leprechaun, Rusty, with his mischievous past? Finn McGuire, the desperate pub owner last seen with the shamrock? Or perhaps the mayor himself, whose ambitions might be fueled by the town's misfortune?
Is this for you?
Who it's for
This 2.6 km loop starts and ends at the Schlafly Library, passing the Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis, the World Chess Hall of Fame and Chase Park Plaza Cinemas while you work out who took the Golden Shamrock. Friends, couples and families get around 90 minutes of outdoor sleuthing. Anyone set on an indoor escape room or a live guide should choose another option.
