Central Park Stolen Archives: NY Exploration Game and Tour
Uncover hidden stories along Museum Mile as a legendary treasure hunter on this outdoor adventure through Central Park.
This Central Park exploration game blends a self-guided walking tour with the thrill of an outdoor escape game, guiding you through some of New York's most celebrated landmarks. Step into the shoes of Giada Rompicapo, a famed treasure hunter, and follow clues that unfold a gripping narrative at every stop.
The experience uses your smartphone to deliver directions, challenges, and story chapters as you move between locations. You set the pace, pausing as long as you like at each site before the next clue propels you forward.
The route traces Central Park's Museum Mile corridor, weaving through iconic cultural institutions and quieter corners that most visitors overlook. A tragic backstory involving the first American supermodel adds an unexpected layer of depth to the journey.
After booking, you will receive an email with download instructions for the game app. One ticket per person is recommended for the full experience, though a group can share a single device if preferred.
