A damp morning light slips between glass towers as your group gathers outside a familiar Uptown corner — the city already humming, the sidewalks daring you to hurry. The Queen City Quest hands you a digital map, a live remote host on your phone, and a set of eccentric clues that send teams weaving through murals, parks, and neighborhood storefronts. Expect laughter, quick negotiations with strangers for a needed photo, and the odd discovery that turns a street into a riddle.
