Self-guided urban adventure treasure hunt played on the Go Quest Adventures app, with teams solving puzzles at Liverpool's landmarks.
Discover Liverpool! is a self-guided urban treasure hunt that runs through the Go Quest Adventures app, with the route starting and ending at Liverpool Lime Street Station. It's not a guided tour — you're in charge of the pace, so it works as well for a slow wander with the kids as it does for a competitive afternoon with a group of mates. You'll need to download the app and gather your team before you set off.
The game takes you across the city on a trail that winds through the waterfront, the business district, and the streets made famous by the Fab Four, passing the Albert Dock and the city's largest outdoor shopping centre. As you move, every street hides a clue, every landmark tells a story, and every puzzle brings you closer to victory. You'll solve challenges, unlock fun facts, and compete for points, all while seeing some of the city's most famous sights and a few hidden gems you might otherwise walk right past.
Along the way, the game weaves in bits of local history: you might 'meet' famous icons, hear about ghostly children, and discover how the city played a key role in the war effort. It's a good way to get a sense of why Liverpool was named a European Capital of Culture, with its maritime history, architecture, and status as the pop music capital of the world all coming into play. Because you're playing at your own pace, you can stop and linger wherever you like.

It's pitched at families, friends, couples, and groups, so it's as much about the company as the puzzles. You'll need to pick your date and time when you book, and the whole thing kicks off at Liverpool Lime Street Station.
