The game begins on a crisp village street where Adirondack air pulls at your jacket and the lakefront dares you to look up from the map. Teams receive a live, remote host on their phone, a packet of digital clues, and two hours to move between eclectic checkpoints — public art, hidden plaques, and local storefronts that reward a sharp eye and a playful attitude.
