Need a date-night idea, a weekend activity with the kids, or a fresh way to see a city you love? Put the phone between you and the streets, and the real world becomes your playground.
TWO WAYS TO PLAY
1. Outdoor escape games (for locals)
Spontaneous adventures in your own city. Like an escape room, but outdoors.
• For couples: "Murder Mystery: Crime on Date Night." Skip dinner and a movie and team up to catch a killer.
• For families: "Kid Quest," made for ages 4 to 8. Walk the park, solve easy riddles, take photos together.
• For friends: race to crack the case before time runs out.
2. Story-driven tours (for travelers)
Don't just look at landmarks. Step into the story behind them. Local writers turn history and legend into walking games.
• New York: "Hamilton." London: "Jack the Ripper." Zurich: "Einstein." Paris: "Lost Lovers in Montmartre."
• And new adventures: "Murder Mystery Zodiac," "The 9 Lives Heist," and "The Lost Gold."
MORE THAN READING, IT'S PLAYING
Questo isn't a text walk. It's interactive.
• Puzzles that use your phone and your senses, like blowing on the screen to clear the dust and reveal the next clue.
• Video woven into the story, so you watch history come alive instead of just reading about it.
• Time Rifts: see how the place you're standing looked centuries ago.
• Every quest reshapes the app to match its world.
PLAY TOGETHER
• Co-op: share one phone and solve as a team.
• Versus: split into teams and race. The leaderboard shows who's fastest.
• Crews: join or start a group, play together, and compete for the top spot.
KEEP THE MEMORIES
• Memories: after you finish, re-read every story and relive the quest.
• Explorer Photos: see real photos from other players, and share your own.
PLAY IN YOUR LANGUAGE
Quests in multiple languages, many with an audio version so you can listen as you walk.
HOW IT WORKS
Download and browse the map to find a game near you.
Head to the starting point. No schedule, start whenever your group is ready.
Use the statues, buildings, and street art around you to solve riddles and unlock the next part of the story.
WHY QUESTO
• Real connection: put the screens down and be with the people around you.
• Budget friendly: far less than an escape room or a guided tour.
• Flexible: pause for lunch or a coffee anytime.
• Gift it: buy a quest for someone you love.

We did the Phoenix, AZ Wizard of Oz Questo game and not only did we learn new things about the city of Phoenix downtown, but we also learn new things about Wizard of Oz that we did not previously know, even though we thought we were big fans! Some of the answers to the clues seemed too basic for example, one of the answers was tree, and we thought we had to name the type of tree and so we got stuck at some places for too long because we may have over thought it or the creator under thought it not sure. There was also one of the clues that was very difficult to read in the bright sunlight in the middle of the day, and no matter which angle we turned our phones we could not get it. So we felt there should have been an easier way, or less elongated letters for us to read and understand the clue. last thing I will say is in giving directions as to where to go for the next clue it kept bringing us out to main avenues that seemed quite unnecessary. Other than that, I do recommend Questo games! I look forward to the next city outside of my home, on vacation to possibly explore and do another escape room/scavenger hunt. Last but not at least they have very good customer service and they do respond quickly to emails and questions.

This was our first QUESTO challenge and what fun we had! It was lucky for us that our 9 year old granddaughter was so wise and capable …. She was really into it. The whole format showed an incredible amount of foresight by the planners. Our group was two couples, both grandparents and our two grandkids, ages 9 and 6.5. Our 9 year old is a wiz but it was a bit above the 6.5 year old’s ability, even though he is a sharp cookie. If an iPad can carry this app, I would recommend it. There is much to benefit from with the larger screen; the graphics and the information offered is amazing. My phone has a privacy screen shield, so it was difficult to have several pairs of eyes to help out. Not QUESTO’S fault but might be a recommendation. Also, plan for time to be about two hours. They’d said 12 stops but there were 15 and the ending spot listed before the app opened for the experience had changed. All simple adjustments for this traveler and our group. It was a wonderful time! I’d do it again! And will in Milan as part of our tour time!

Wow, multi-generational fun! Love that your 9-year-old aced it! Thanks for the devices feedback. Privacy screens can be tricky, indeed. Thanks for the time & stop updates - we'll look into that. See you in Milan!
Are we doing this right??

I did another one of these through another company and had a blast…the puzzles were thought-provoking, the story entertaining and thoroughly grounded in the source material. We just finished the Wizard of Oz puzzle and I’m trying to figure out what age level it was intended for. The puzzles were either entirely inane or so tricky as to be frustrating (the final puzzle required us to pull out pencil and paper in order to solve it), the story was lacking in both substance and sense. Following the map led us in a literal circle around the downtown area and required no brain power whatsoever. I couldn’t help wondering the entire time if it had all been AI generated like the over-the-top ad images I’ve seen on facebook for the past month. Two suggestions, if you decide to ignore my review and do this app anyway: make sure everyone has a phone so they can all have a chance to see the puzzles. There doesn’t seem to be any connection between team members’ phones, so even if one person solves it super fast the slower members will still have a chance to play. And two, don’t expect the littles to have much interest in this game. Most of the puzzles required reading and problem solving skills of about second grade or above (some WAY above). Our 4 and 6-year-olds did enjoy the occasional “act out this silly instruction” moments, but for a lot of it they were just unengaged. All in all, I’ve spent more money on worse entertainment, but that’s not much of a recommendation. Maybe give CluedUpp a try instead?

We did a test of a NYC walk still in development, and it was a lot of fun! The storyline that propels you from clue to clue was cute, and we enjoyed learning more about the history of each stopping point in an area of the city we hadn’t explored much before. We had one clue that we couldn’t get the right answer to, but there’s a way to still continue with the story. Looking forward to doing more walks in our city and when traveling! Really appreciate the affordable format and flexibility to start whenever you want (plus in pandemic times, helpful that there’s no interaction with strangers).Note for developers: when the app prompts you to take and submit a photo of your team, it crashed the app and we lost our progress. Customer service was very responsive and gave us a workaround to start over and finish the walk. We were almost at the end, but luckily we remembered most of the answers from the earlier stops and were able to get close to our original score.
