Hidden Gems of Mexico City: Self-Guided Exploration Game

This is a self-guided exploration game crafted by a passionate local storyteller and played through the colonial suburb of Mexico City. You will explore 12 different locations while following the story of a landscape painter seeking inspiration searching for a lost sketchbook containing forgotten techniques. At each location, you'll solve a real-world puzzle by searching for clues on monuments, graffiti, and facades. The route winds through Chimalistac, blending colonial history with whispered tales of hidden orchards and vanished artisans.

At each location, you'll solve a challenge and receive instructions for the next chapter.
