About this experience
What sets Operation City Quest scavenger hunts apart is the electrifying sense of freedom and discovery it offers.

You'll receive a list of dynamic challenges and riddles that you can complete in any sequence, allowing you to fully customize your journey to your team's interests.
The self-paced nature of the game means you can take as long as you want. There’s no rush, so feel free to stop for a quick bite, duck into a store, or simply admire the scenery. A live remote host is a key part of the experience, providing instant help and hints via in-app chat to ensure the adventure is always exciting and never frustrating. This unique mix of total control, competitive fun, and friendly support makes it the ultimate way to conquer the city and create lasting memories!

Operation City Quest is a thrilling, app-based scavenger hunt that turns your city into an epic urban adventure. It's a fun and unique way for both locals and tourists to explore St Catharines. The game is played entirely on your smartphone, giving you a series of clever riddles and photo tasks to complete. Your mission is to find everything and anything a downtown area has to offer.
The best part is that you are in complete control of your adventure. You can play at your own pace and complete the challenges in any order you like. With no rush, you can stop for a coffee, browse a shop, or just take a break to enjoy the view. You'll earn points by snapping photos of the items you find, and you can see how you stack up against other teams on a live leaderboard.
