Unlockthecity and Urban Expeditions acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples and their traditional territories on which our games are played.

During the events of Covid-19, all of our in-person games are suspended until further notice.

The images presented in this webpage are from a time before the pandemic when we use to play together and enjoy the hands-on exploration of urban culture. Things have changed a bit, but we're keeping the old images posted as a reminder to stay connected. Now, our players use the TUG app to explore cities around the world from the comfort and safety of home. Try is out HERE. Top players collect the most points in the least time. Their scores and times are posted on the leaderboard.
