Philly: The Game - Sightseeing Scavenger Hunt May 15, 2011

Don't Just See Philadelphia...Play It!

With Philly: The Game, enjoy a scavenger hunt that transforms sightseeing from a passive experience into a fun, engaging exploration of Philadelphia’s sights and streets. Play using your very own cell phone, on your own schedule, and at your own pace.

See historic landmarks, such as Independence Mall and the Masonic Temple, and discover hidden spots off the beaten path. Just pick the neighborhood you want to “play” and receive clues, tasks and other challenges right on your phone via text-message or mobile web browser. The Game is appropriate for people of all ages and groups of all sizes, and it’s enjoyed by locals and tourists alike.

Play in either of the two Game Zones we currently have:

· Center City

· Old City

How It Works:

· Buy your ticket

· Activate your phone

· Pick a neighborhood (“Game Zone”)

· Receive a clue

· Visit sights to find the answer

· Send in the answer & receive fun facts

Availability:
Playable any day of the year, at any time of day. Just activate your phone and go! Play as many "Game Zones" as you want in the time your ticket allows. Each zone takes 2-3 hours to complete and you can jump from zone to zone.
