The wind off Reykjavík harbor tugs at your jacket as your team gathers on the grassy slope of Arnarhóll, phones in hand and a QR code ready to unlock the first clue. Streets hum with tramlike trams of locals and the occasional gull; nearby, colorful houses and modern glass facades create a cityscape that feels compact but full of secrets. The game pushes you across plazas, past statues, and along the coastline where the Atlantic dares you to slow down.
