Your Experience

A rare pre-Hispanic Mixtec gold ornament has vanished just days before the Guelaguetza festival in this self-guided exploration game. Working with world-travelling detective Ken Clever, follow clues through Oaxaca's museums, churches, theatres and plazas, from the Santo Domingo complex past the Teatro Macedonio Alcalá and the Cathedral to the Plaza de la Danza, as the case reveals a conflict between cultural heritage and modern tradition.


Along the way you solve challenges in the Questo app, learn historical facts and local myths, and discover hidden spots that only locals know and most tourists pass by. The walk covers about 2 km and takes around 1 hour, with no time limit.


Can you recover the gold before the festival?
