The game begins at a downtown bench with Lake Nipissing breathing against the shore — gulls call, and the boardwalk dares you to move faster. Your team unlocks the app, and an apocalyptic scoreboard materializes: a list of scavenger items, silly challenges and a remote host waiting in chat. Streets, parks and murals become supply caches; alleys and waterfront viewpoints become strategy points.

History
North Bay developed as a railway and lumber hub in the late 19th century; its lakeshore location shaped both industry and recreation.
Conservation
Stick to sidewalks and designated paths, pack out any trash and respect public waterfront spaces—Lake Nipissing stewardship initiatives encourage low-impact use.

Charge your phone fully

Lake Nipissing’s boardwalk can be slippery when wet — slow down on morning dew or after rain to avoid slips.

Agree on an identifiable meeting spot (a café or landmark) before starting so lost players can reconnect quickly.
