“Alright, your first clue is coming through!” That’s how our day kicked off, standing by a mural that locals seem to pass without a glance. Our remote host’s voice came through the phone, full of energy, and suddenly we were off—phones in hand, eyes darting between the screen and the quirky streets around us. The sun was already warming the sidewalk, and I could hear the faint hum of a food truck generator somewhere nearby.
We zigzagged through Marfa’s mix of art installations and old storefronts, sometimes ducking into cool galleries for an indoor challenge or pausing outside to snap a silly team photo. At one point, we had to ask a shopkeeper about a piece of local history—she grinned and gave us a hint that only someone from town would know. The game kept us moving but never rushed; there was time to notice little things like the way the breeze carried hints of desert sage or how everyone seemed to know each other by name.
Our host checked in often, cheering us on and sending bonus challenges when we needed an extra push. We texted photos back and forth—some goofy, some surprisingly artistic—and watched our points add up on the leaderboard. Even when we got stuck, it felt more like being part of a friendly experiment than a competition. By the end, my phone was full of snapshots I wouldn’t have taken otherwise, and we’d picked up stories you just don’t get from guidebooks.
