You step off Main Street and the town takes on a new role: ally and obstacle in a mock apocalypse. Streetlamps throw long shadows across brick storefronts, the Credit River murmurs behind a row of sycamores, and your phone buzzes with the first mission from a remote host. The hour that follows turns Georgetown’s compact downtown into a gameboard—shops, parks, and alleyways become checkpoints where scavenger items and themed challenges test observation, speed, and creativity.
