Things to do Oxford's Famous Alumni: Self-Guided Exploration Game

This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played through the academic heart of Oxford, UK. You will explore 12 different locations while playing as a former Oxford professor searching for a missing invention tied to a tragic death. At each location, you'll solve a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on monuments, graffiti, and facades. The route hugs the city center, blending real history with rumors only longtime residents know. Starting from the city center, the stops are spaced an average of around 350m apart, with each location taking around 7 min to complete. The route also passes through The Eagle and Child pub, St Giles’ Street, Somerville College, Woodstock Road and The Old Parsonage Hotel, Banbury Road. At each location, you'll solve a challenge and receive instructions for the next chapter. DISCLAIMER: You will explore by yourself using the Questo app on your phone. No physical guide or stranger groups will be involved. The full route covers approximately 3.9 km (2.4 mi) and takes around 1:30h to complete. You can play it any day, at any time.
