Overview

This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played along the riverfront paths of Sydney. You will explore 15 different locations while playing as a former convict seeking a new start searching for a path to rebuild life after imprisonment. At each location, you'll solve a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on monuments, graffiti, and facades. The route focuses mostly on Millers Point area, blending real history with rumors only longtime residents know. Perfect for history buffs, urban explorers and curious travelers.

Starting from the City of Sydney library, the stops are spaced an average of around 200m apart, with each location taking around 8 min to complete. The route also passes through Observatory Hill, Museum of Contemporary Art and Dawes Point Battery. At each location, you'll solve a challenge and receive instructions for the next chapter.
