The afternoon air above the Truckee River bites cool and the neon of downtown Reno throws sharp lines across wet pavement as your phone buzzes with the first clue. You step into a city that dares you to look twice—public art that winks from alleyways, forgotten neon signs, and an industrial skyline softened by river spray. Your remote host greets you through text and the two-hour clock starts ticking.

Bring a fully charged smartphone
