Your late great-aunt has left behind more than a memory. Inside the envelope she left you is a weathered map, dotted with strange codes and familiar Greenwich landmarks. One last eccentric act or something far more valuable?

Follow the clues through 14 real locations across historic Greenwich in this self-guided outdoor mystery game. Download the free Questo app, start at the Spanish Galleon pub, and go anytime between 8am and 7pm, no guide, no group, no fixed schedule.

The trail winds through Greenwich Market, St Alfege Church, the National Maritime Museum, the Queen's House, and ends at the legendary Cutty Sark. Along the way, a cast of characters emerges — including a cousin with his own half of the map, and a stranger who knows more about your great-aunt than you do.

Solve 14 riddles hidden in plaques, signs, and architecture. Uncover the history of the Prime Meridian, the Cutty Sark's tea-racing voyages, and Greenwich's haunted past. Suitable for ages 10 and up.
