Solve a self-guided murder mystery on a walk through the University of Tennessee campus and World's Fair Park. Your AI assistant gets hijacked by Director Zero, a rogue surveillance program that was shut down years ago. He wants you to find out who killed him.

Decode clues, crack the case, and reach the final reveal.

Each chapter has its own puzzle, AI-driven narrative twist, and real Knoxville history, from the 1794 founding of UT to the 1982 World's Fair and the Sunsphere's gold panels.

Start anytime, pause whenever, and pick up where you left off. Allow around 70 minutes for the full 2.8 km route.
