Grail Game - An International Treasure Hunt

“Quest for the Grail” is an international treasure hunt that links players in London and New York City to search for the missing relic.

“The Grail is missing...Follow Catrin Jones' clues. Find the Grail before the Minotaurs do.”

In this 2-hour game, Old World teams (10 players each) will hunt for objects in Clerkenwell hotspots...from the Order of St. John to Blackfriars Bridge to the International Magic Shop. You may be looking for a charm against the Plague, a tombstone or a silver goblet. Your team may be asked to invent something – e.g., the holiest of drinks. Find/photograph the object based on clues. Win points for every object found or task completed. You will be assigned to a team. Each team gets a QR code. Pin your team’s code to your shirt. If a Minotaur spots your QR code, your team loses points. Puppetmasters will help you to navigate the maze. Maidens and monks will post each team's progress online.

The game continues as New World teams (10 players each) will hunt for objects in Manhattan hotspots...from Clinton Castle to the tombstones of Trinity Church to the Grand Lodge of the Masons. You may be looking for a marker of a headless ghost who haunts Wall Street, a symbol of George Washington or a troll in the East Village. Your team may be asked to concoct something - the most rebellious of drinks! Transatlantic puppetmasters will help UK and US players in the hunt for the Grail.
