The ocean calls and the boardwalk answers — you start outside a recognizable local landmark, phone in hand, as gulls inspect your entrance and the salt air nudges you toward the first clue. A live remote host greets your team and drops a digital brief; then the town becomes a course of puzzles, quick challenges, and offbeat stops. Expect to walk between storefronts, parks, and shoreline viewpoints as the game shifts between indoor curiosities and outdoor stretches.
