    What To Expect

    An immersive clue-solving adventure around Central Park. It's a cross between an escape room and a scavenger hunt!

    The city is literally your game board. Search for real-world clues and solve puzzles, then enter solutions on the app to find out where to go next. The game consists of a physical box and clues you must find in the real world, all around Central Park. Plan on about two hours of play time, depending on experience level and how much time you spend exploring along the way.

    The Queen of Hearts has cast a curse over Wonderland and time is running out. Alice and her friends desperately need you to find the counterspell and uncover an object of power to complete it. Do you have what it takes to break her curse before nightfall? Search for clues, solve puzzles, and explore your city on this unforgettable adventure!
