Itinerary
Trade the usual beach stroll for a whodunit along La Jolla’s sun-splashed coast. Under the cliffs and palms, you’ll step into a cinematic case where love, jealousy, and alibis collide. Open the mobile quest and follow GPS-guided clues through village lanes, ocean viewpoints, and art-filled corners. Solve 12 bite-size puzzles, unlock story chapters, and piece together the truth behind travel blogger Bella Wanderlust’s death during a ghost tour led by the theatrical Percy Shadows. Was it Walter, the obsessed boyfriend? Percy with his dramatic flair? Or a third suspect hiding in plain sight? Play at your own pace—pause for coffee, seals, or sunset, then resume anytime. What makes this tour unique? It blends an escape-room mystery with real-world discovery, turning La Jolla itself into your game board—no schedules, no crowds, just immersive storytelling and clever clues. Perfect for couples, families, and curious travelers who love puzzles and scenic walks. Bring your sleuthing skills, enjoy the sea air, and uncover the killer before they strike again.
