10 Years of Fun with Urban Adventure Quest

By the time you are reading this, our family will have (hopefully) completed our 28th Urban Adventure Quest. We are obviously huge fans of this game, where smartphone clues take you on a walking tour to the most interesting and important sites in a city. We always learn so much during a Quest and every Quest has taken us to places we never would have discovered on our own. 


We solved our first Urban Adventure Quest in Sacramento in March 2016. We were immediately hooked. We completed our second UAQ in Salt Lake City three months later and two more Quests in New Mexico five months after that. One month after that, we served as beta testers for a new Quest for the first time. 

Over the past 10 years since that first time in Sacramento, we have solved Quests in 19 different states. We've done Quests in extreme heat and epic downpours. We've finished Quests with no mistakes and others with an embarrassing number of errors. We've powered through Quests to try to get a good time and we've leisurely solved Quests with no consideration to our final score. 

I put together a map with all the locations we've done (so far). Most of the blank states don't have Quests; here is the current list of Quest cities


I'm excited to see what the next 10 years of Questing looks like for the deRosiers!
