A mid-afternoon breeze off the Bow River pushes through downtown Calgary, and the city’s grid becomes a playground for a different kind of expedition. Participants open an app, get a ping from a remote host, and scatter: through glass-fronted plazas, past century-old brick storefronts on Stephen Avenue, across public squares where street art dares you to look twice.

A mid-afternoon breeze off the Bow River pushes through downtown Calgary, and the city’s grid becomes a playground for a different kind of expedition. Participants open an app, get a ping from a remote host, and scatter: through glass-fronted plazas, past century-old brick storefronts on Stephen Avenue, across public squares where street art dares you to look twice.
The game folds urban history into play. Calgary’s growth — from Indigenous lands of Treaty 7 nations to a frontier railway town to a modern energy and cultural hub — provides a layered backdrop for each clue. The Rockies stand guard to the west, a geological spine that shaped rivers and trade routes; the Bow and Elbow rivers still curve through neighbourhoods that offer quick pockets of green and quiet refuge.
Culturally, the hunt taps into the city’s playful side: Stampede grit, indie galleries in Inglewood, and craft cafés in Kensington. Local architecture and public art become checkpoints; a hidden alley or plaza bench is as important as a found item.
Practically, this is a one-hour, app-driven walking activity guided virtually. Teams score points by locating survival items and completing themed tasks while a remote host monitors progress and answers questions via chat. Expect urban sidewalks, short runs between clues, and lots of phone use — bring charged devices, comfortable shoes, and an appetite for quick problem-solving. The experience is family-friendly, stroller-accessible, and suitable for most fitness levels; it’s a compact, social way to explore Calgary without a physical trail, but with plenty of local character.
The standard game lasts about one hour and is designed as a single self-guided walking session with remote support.
No — a remote host follows your progress via the app and communicates by chat; the activity is effectively self-guided.
The experience is stroller-accessible and suitable for most mobility levels on paved routes, but check specific neighbourhood terrain before booking.
Service animals are permitted; if bringing a pet, confirm local leash rules and consider city crowds during the game.
