📜 Storyline
You’re a talented but struggling bass guitarist in search of your big break in the music world.
The band you were once a part of has split, and now you’re on your own, trying to find the next opportunity to make your mark.
While sulking over your latest setback, you stumble across an ad that catches your eye—Gluckspeck, your favorite band, is hiring a bass player.
The catch? There’s no formal audition.
Instead, there’s a challenge: solve a series of riddles that take you through Soho’s music history.
Your quest begins with a riddle, leading you to famous music landmarks, where you’ll solve clues, snap album-cover-worthy photos, and delve into rock trivia that tests your knowledge of the genre.
You must navigate Soho, unearth hidden clues, and discover peculiar landmarks, including the Soho Noses—all while racing against time.
But the clock’s ticking, and Gluckspeck is waiting.
The ultimate rock ‘n’ roll gig could be yours—but only if you can prove you know your music history and beat the challenge before your competition does!

For us, the first 3 clues/map locations were out of order so we lost an hour because the directions did not match with the point on map. On top of that, the first location was covered but I understand that’s something that changes often. The rest of the tour was nice though and learning about musical history was very cool, with good spots included.
