A late-afternoon wind pushes across Amarillo’s broad streets as your group gathers around a phone screen, the app pulsing with a royal crest and the promise of a challenge. You tap “start,” assign a King or Queen, and the city—its murals, neon signs, and worn sidewalks—becomes a playful arena. The hunt nudges you toward tasks that ask for photos, quick improv, and local discoveries; traffic lights and pedestrians form the only natural obstacles.
