Hello, apologies for the inconvenience. We would like to get more details about what you have experienced so we can get to know what went wrong and prevent this from happening again. For clarity, with Questo you explore on your own by using our mobile app, so there's no one supposed to wait for you. Kindly reach us at [email protected]. Hoping we can make it up to you and enjoy your next game with us.

I’m sure it would have been great but I never found out because I was unable to unlock the game. It was really embarrassing after convincing my friend to walk 30 minutes in Philadelphia for the game.

We had a lot of fun on the Ghosts of Philadelphia Night Walk Game! There were 4 of us from Chicago, so not really familiar with Philly but we managed to solve all of the challenges and reach the final destination. It afforded us the opportunity to see parts of the city that we probably wouldn't have otherwise. Highly recommend!
