The first clue pops up on your phone and the city's stone façades seem to lean in, watching. You and your team move through downtown Asheville, eyes peeled for survival items and playful challenges while the app's timer ticks—streets daring you to be faster, alleys nudging you toward hidden murals.
Asheville's downtown grew fast around the railroad and early 20th-century industry; brick storefronts and Beaux-Arts buildings provide a compact playground for a one-hour urban game. The city's location near the Blue Ridge means granite ridges and the French Broad River shaped its street grid; today those natural features fold into parks and riverfront paths that occasionally intersect the scavenger route.
Culturally, the hunt threads local color—brewpub signs, public art, and historic plaques become markers and clues. The experience is self-guided but supported: a remote host chats through the app if you stall. Teams can tackle tasks in any order, scoring points for found items and completed zombie-themed challenges, then compare nationwide leaderboards.
Practical guide: expect mostly flat city blocks with short stair sets and curbs, about 1 hour of light walking. Use a charged smartphone, download any required app beforehand, and choose a start time when downtown foot traffic suits your group (evenings can be busy). Public transit and parking are available near the start point.
This is urban exploration with a playful edge—part scavenger hunt, part city tour—best for groups who enjoy quick decision-making, local trivia, and moving at a brisk walk. Bring water, a portable charger, and a sense of competition.
You will receive a message before the game with instructions and a link; follow that to launch the app and connect with your remote host.
