About this quest
The lights are bright, the air electric—and you have no clue how you got here. With a head full of fog and a single word echoing in your mind ("banana?!"), your only guide is chaos, confusion… and a strange old woman who thinks you're a TV star.
Welcome to Broadway, where nothing is quite as it seems. Step into a puzzle-filled adventure through New York’s iconic theatre district, uncovering quirky clues and hidden theatrical gems. Is it a dream, a show, or something stranger? Solve your way through real-world locations in this whimsical walking quest—perfect for friends, families, and anyone who loves mystery, laughter, and a touch of dramatic flair.
Curtain up—your quest begins now!
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Theatre fans, friends and families staying around Times Square get a playful amnesia comedy that sends them past a dozen Broadway landmarks, from Studio 54 and the Gershwin Theatre to the New Amsterdam, finishing at Radio City Music Hall. Plan on about two hours and 3.3 km of street puzzles. Anyone hoping for a guide sharing backstage history, or for an indoor show, should choose something else.

A little clarity before you go
Frequently asked questions
Where does the Broadway puzzle walk start and finish?
It starts at Studio 54 and finishes at Radio City Music Hall, so it is not a loop. In between you pass the Broadway, Winter Garden, Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Music Box, Minskoff, Majestic, Lyric, New Amsterdam and Belasco theatres, in that order.
How long does it take and how far do we walk?
Most players take about two hours, including walking and solving the puzzles. The route covers 3.3 km through the theatre district. You can pause at any point and continue later, so there is time for a snack or a photo stop.
Can we play as a group?
Yes. One ticket covers the whole group playing together on the phone, so friends or a family can follow the story and work out the clues side by side as you walk between the theatres.
Is it good for kids?
The story is light and silly, built around a confused hero, a mysterious word and an old woman who mistakes you for a TV star. It suits families with children old enough to enjoy reading clues and walking around two hours through busy streets.
Do we need to book a time, and is it outdoors?
No booking of a time slot is needed: start whenever you like, with no group to join and no guide. The puzzles are set at the theatre fronts along the street, so the game is played outdoors and you should dress for the weather.
Is Broadway Whodunit: The Puzzle Star Amnesia in NY self-guided?
Yes. The Questo app guides you between locations without a tour guide or fixed departure. Start when it suits you and pause if needed.
Where does Broadway Whodunit: The Puzzle Star Amnesia in NY start and finish?

This classic quest sells access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
