The Mississippi watches over the city like a slow-moving audience, daring teams to take the streets and solve the city's small mysteries. Participants begin at a celebrated local meeting spot and receive instructions from a remote live host who nudges, cheers, and scores via text. From there teams fan out—on foot or by short drives—to chase clues that lead through storefronts, murals, riverfront paths, and alleyways where Memphis’s character sits in plain sight.

Memphis grew up as a river port on the broad Mississippi floodplain; its streets reflect layers of commerce, music, and civil-rights history. Clues point toward music halls and small museums, and the route naturally threads past Sun Studio lore, civic markers, and barbecue joints with lacquered smoke windows. Geology shows in the levees and low bluffs that shaped early settlement; culture shows in saxophones and postered doors.
The game blends tour, creative challenge, and light competition. Expect 2 hours of intermittent walking and quick photo or video challenges; some checkpoints are indoors while others open onto humid river air. The remote host requires a working domestic phone number and a charged smartphone with data.
Practical tips: plan for Memphis weather (hot summers, wet springs), use public transit or street parking plans, and stagger start times for groups wanting quieter streets. The hunt is family- and dog-friendly, wheelchair-accessible in many sections, and ideal for small groups, corporate teams, and curious visitors wanting an outside-focused, city-based adventure.
No dedicated app is required; the remote host sends instructions and the digital scavenger document via text or email—just ensure your phone can receive them.
Yes—hunts are family- and dog-friendly, though some indoor checkpoints may have limited pet access; plan routes accordingly.
You must provide a working domestic phone number; international numbers can use WhatsApp or email as a backup—notify the operator in advance if using these alternatives.
