The downtown streets hum with ordinary Saturday traffic until the app asks you to stop, listen, and take in the small clues tucked into façades and alleyways. You’ll stand on a concrete curb, earbuds in, as a commander’s voice hands you the key to a murder case — the city itself your crime scene and 10 mapped locations your evidence bank.
Pocatello’s layered history — a crossroads for the Shoshone-Bannock people, a railroad hub in the 19th century, a working-class city through the 20th — gives character to the stops. The Portneuf River etches a cool line through town and seems to dare you to follow its current from one clue to the next. Building stones, old signage, and park features become forensic evidence in the narrative; local vernacular and small-town details ground the fiction in place.
The experience is audio-driven and player-paced: choose a walking map for a compact downtown loop or a driving map to spread the story across city outskirts. Professional voice actors give life to 16 characters; a built-in scoring system rates how well you read the scene and connect threads. Expect roughly 2–3 hours including stops, photo ops, and coffee breaks.
Practical note: clear audio is essential — use earbuds and a charged phone. If mobility is limited, opt for the driving version. Start times are flexible after booking and the app guides turn-by-turn. Bring water, wear comfortable shoes, and allow time for downtown parking and a post-case debrief over a locally brewed coffee.
