The Fisherman’s Wharf Weird Wonders Scavenger Hunt

You may think you know Fisherman’s Wharf…

…but you won’t believe what you’ve been missing when you play this unusual group game that reveals its hidden history and overlooked oddities. On this waterfront adventure, you and your team will follow a trail of clues and answer fun and funny questions about what you find. You’ll uncover secrets about Navy vessels on Pier 45, crab stands on Taylor Street, a  transformed Cannery, and…

You might also discover…

  • Bizarre and amusing coin-operated antique machines at the Musée Méchanique
  • A submarine that’s giving clouds the brush-off
  • The origin of the country’s first Irish coffee
  • A hippie alien hanging out with Beyoncé

Plus, you’ll find a festive riot of food and souvenir stands. You don’t need any special or prior knowledge to triumph—you just need to be on the lookout for surprising details, think out of the box, and collaborate with your teammates.

The game provides a great team-building outing for corporate groups looking for an unusual venue for some bonding. Why get stuck in a room for an hour when you can explore the carnival that is Fisherman’s Wharf?  

If you’re thinking that this would also be the perfect group game for curious kids, you’d be right! We offer a Kids Edition of this hunt that will delight hunters ages 7 and up. It’s ideal for birthday parties, camp and youth-group outings, and more.

The Murder Mystery Mayhem Scavenger Hunt

Beware: there’s a killer in your midst

Someone playing this game with you is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. His or her good side knows nothing about the evil side—and the evil side has challenged you to prevent your own murder. Everyone in your group has been poisoned, and the clock is ticking down on your time left to live. To reveal the killer’s identity, you’ll have to complete a series of photo challenges, solve interlocking puzzles, decipher coded text messages, and more. If you succeed, you get the antidote. If you fail…well, you know.

If you love escape-room games, you’ll love this murder mystery scavenger hunt. But even better, you won’t be locked in a room for an hour: this game can be played almost anywhere. 

An in-person murder mystery for any location!

We have a variety of versions, depending on where you want to play. Such as…

  • A city, town, or neighborhood
  • A science or history museum
  • A zoo or aquarium
  • An office building
  • A school or campus
