Bring your own group and keep it private, or book an open departure and be teamed up with other players. Teams are 2 to 6, and solo play works too.

It is the only stop you know in advance. From there your phone takes over: no guide, no clipboard, nobody talking at you.

Four stops, one story

Each stop is revealed as you play. The route is built to be walked, and a bus or taxi is fine if you prefer.

Missions made for talking

Missions made for talking

Some need a sharp eye, some need the whole team, and most end with everyone laughing. Anything your team would rather skip can be skipped.

Save the best for last

The final stop is chosen for a reason, and the story saves its best mission for it. We will not spoil it.

You leave with the photos and a story you will be retelling for a while.

About this experience

You will never walk past this part of Lockport (Illinois) the same way again.

It starts at an ordinary meeting point and stops being ordinary about ten minutes in.

The story is set in Lockport (Illinois) itself: its history, its landmarks, the places people walk past every day. Each stop is revealed as you play, and your team has to agree on where you are going next. The story hands you a reason to look more carefully than you normally would, and suddenly the details are everywhere.

Your team works it out together, pooling what each of you knows and following the good hunches until the answer lands. Someone reads it differently and that turns out to be the right call.

The last stop is saved for the end for a reason. We will leave that as a surprise.

By the end you will have seen a version of Lockport (Illinois) that most visitors miss, with people you know a lot better than you did that morning.

Cancellation policy

Flexible cancellation: Plans change, so every booking comes with three options. Cancel in one click from your booking page any time before your quest, and for up to 45 minutes after your scheduled start, and choose a credit for the full amount you paid (valid for 12 months on any quest), a free reschedule to another departure, or a refund of your full payment minus the non-refundable payment processing fee. The card processing fee is charged by our payment provider when you pay and is not returned on a refund; a credit or a reschedule keeps the whole amount. After those 45 minutes, email our support team at support@goquestirl.com. Booked through Viator or another site? Cancel or change your booking with them: they handle the refund. Playing solo: on an open departure, if nobody else turns up by the time teams form (30 minutes after the start), you play Solo Mode, the version of the quest made for one player. A private booking for one plays Solo Mode from the start.

A shared social adventure

One story across four stops, played with your own group or with new people. Book with friends or join solo; every participant has an equal role.

FAQs

What is GoQuestIRL?

A real-world spy story you play on your phone, with your own group or with other players. It runs across four stops, and each one is revealed as you play.

Can I book on my own?

Yes, and you can choose how. Book an open departure (Sundays at 3:00 PM local time) and you are teamed up with the other players who arrive (usually 6, up to 8), or book a private solo quest and play the whole story on your own, at any available time.

Do we have to act or dress up?

There are no costumes and nothing to prepare. Some missions are playful and involve taking photos on your own phones. They are meant to be silly rather than polished, you decide who is in front of the camera, and any mission you would rather not do can be skipped.

What if I am shy or not very outgoing?

That is completely fine. There is nothing to perform for strangers: the only people watching are the ones on your team, and anything you film stays private unless your team chooses to share it. You can take the quieter roles, filming or working out the clues, and still be a full part of the adventure. If you would rather play only with the people you came with, choose the Private Group option.

Your safety and comfort

Walk Away Guarantee

If at any point you feel uncomfortable, you can stop and leave. Email our support team and choose a credit for the full amount you paid, a free reschedule, or a refund minus the non-refundable payment processing fee: during the quest, right after, or days later.

You don't have to explain why.

Email us and we'll take care of it. support@goquestirl.com

  • You stay with your team for the whole quest. The route never separates players, and no mission sends you anywhere on your own.
  • Every stop is an outdoor public place that is open and in use: no private addresses, no restricted areas, no isolated spots.
  • Evening departures are only offered where every stop on the route is lit and open at that hour.
  • You can switch your booking to a private group at any time before departure, so only the people you booked with can join.
  • Every mission can be skipped, with no penalty and no explanation needed. Your team decides who appears on camera, and recap videos stay private unless you share them.
  • You can pause or leave at any point, for any reason. Stopping costs you nothing and holds nobody up.

While you play

  • Follow local laws, posted signs, and pedestrian rules at all times.
  • Do not enter restricted areas or take unnecessary risks to complete a mission.
  • Pause the experience whenever conditions make it unsafe to continue.
  • You remain responsible for your own personal belongings.
