Adventure Quests

Adventure Quests immerse you in humorous story lines as you partner with story characters to solve mysteries by finding and unlocking clues. Once you've selected your Adventure Quest...

  1. Go to the physical quest play region. Click "Start Quest" to unlock your first clue. Solve the clue, which will direct you to go to another location within the quest region.
  2. Once you're at that clue location, use the virtual in-game "Clue Finder" to search for your next clue. The clue will be located somewhere within that general area. When you find the correct spot, the clue finder will chime and indicate "Clue Found."
  3. Exit the Clue Finder to view the clue that was just unlocked. Some clues may require you to enter a numerical "combination" to fully unlock the clue, so pay very close attention to numbers referenced in the story line, including those that appear in picture clues. It just might be your lock combination! Keep going until you solve the mystery.

Discover Quests

Discover Quests lead you on driving and/or walking tours to discover hidden gems and scenic and historical points-of-interest within cities or regions. Once you've selected your Discover Quest...

  1. Choose a point-of-interest you would like to visit, and play the audio narration. Click the map button below to see the map with that point-of-interest selected.
  2. From within the map, press the blue routing button to view the route. You will be given the distance to the point, as well as the estimated time it will take to drive there. You can click the centering icon at the top to follow your progress along your route.
  3. As you arrive at each designated location, you will see a message letting you know you’ve arrived. For some tour points, more specific location instructions are given within the point description. In most cases, you may want to get out and spend some time at that location before proceeding to another.

"I’ve always been intrigued by “treasure hunts” and have always wanted to participate. I actually did my first quest last night and it was all that I had thought plus more. The clues were awesome and the storyline was fantastic. If you do get stuck, I love the hint option. I highly recommended this. You can do it solo or with a group! "
