You begin on a sun-streaked stretch of boardwalk with gulls calling and the Pacific daring you to look up from your phone long enough to notice the pier’s weathered planks. The live remote host pings your number, hands you a digital quest, and the map unfurls: murals, oddball storefronts, a quiet pocket park, and a lighthouse silhouette that always looks different depending on the tide.
