Adventurous Walking Tour of University of Alabama
We've transformed the University of Alabama into an incredible outdoor adventure! Our app blends the excitement of a Scavenger Hunt with the challenge of an Escape Room, leading you to 12 iconic campus locations. At each spot, you'll solve puzzles and uncover key clues in an epic mystery. The mission? Big Al, Alabama’s beloved elephant mascot, is missing, and morale is at an all-time low! As detectives for Crimson Confidential, it’s up to you—and your trusty Basset Hound, Archie—to track Big Al’s trail. Along the way, you’ll explore legendary locations like Denny Chimes, the President’s Mansion, and the Amelia Gayle Gorgas Library. You'll even unravel fascinating trivia about The Quad, Woods Quad, and more while piecing together the mystery. Prepare to walk around 3 miles during your adventure. You can play solo or with a group, and the journey should take about 90 minutes to complete—but feel free to go at your own pace.
