A cold morning light bounces off the pink Sioux Quartzite underfoot as your team boots up the 3Quest app and reads the first riddle. The Big Sioux River mutters nearby, and Falls Park — the city’s core of motion and stone — dares you to follow clues past cascades, bronze sculptures, and limestone facades.
Sioux Falls grew around these falls; the rock here is old and stubborn, carved by water and locked into city blocks and bridges. Downtown’s Phillips Avenue and the SculptureWalk give a sense of the city’s civic pride, while local history traces from Lakota and Dakota presence through railroad-era growth to today’s creative downtown revitalization.
This is an urban puzzle rather than a wilderness trek. Expect paved sidewalks, short staircases, and occasional grassy park sections. The game divides into three quests, each a chain of riddles and photo challenges delivered by the app and backed by a remote host if you need help. Plan on about two hours to compete at a brisk pace; slower teams can stretch the route into a relaxed 3–4-mile stroll.
Practical edge: charge your phone, wear supportive walking shoes, and split roles—navigator, photographer, clue-solver—to move faster. Watch traffic on busy intersections and respect private property when hunting photo ops. If rain comes, the app and host keep running, but adjust expectations for outdoor shots.
This scavenger hunt is a way to see Sioux Falls on foot—part history lesson, part race-against-the-clock, and a social game that turns city streets into a compact arena of discovery.
