Places & stories

Washington National Mall Mystery: The Philip Reid Time Capsule

A Yale historian arrives in Washington with a single lead: a mysterious email pointing to a time capsule hidden somewhere on the Capitol grounds. The trail follows Philip Reid , an enslaved man who helped raise the Statue of Freedom atop the Capitol dome in 1863, and then disappeared from the historical record entirely. Walk through the U.S. Capitol , the Library of Congress , the Botanic Garden , and a dozen landmarks woven into the history of American democracy and the people it failed. The answer you find at the end will be more personal than you expected.

It was super fun to complete with my family! The storyline was extremely interesting and I was immediately sucked in. It’s a good quest for people just trying out the app (like me)! It started pouring raining halfway through the quest (sadly), but we were able to complete it by driving to the rest of the clues. I highly recommend!
