Overview

Step into the historic streets of Gastown and become a daring treasure hunter chasing the legendary Oppenheimer Stash - a lost fortune from Vancouver’s Gold Rush era. Guided only by an old letter and your own instincts, you'll follow hidden clues, solve real-world puzzles, and uncover secret corners of the city.

With your smartphone as your guide, you'll explore ornate turn-of-the-century architecture, discover landmarks from Vancouver’s past, and even glimpse long-lost sites through a mysterious picture frame that reveals echoes of history.

Each solved puzzle reveals a new piece of the storey and brings you closer to the treasure. Play at your own pace, solo or with friends and family, and create unforgettable memories as you walk, think, and explore.

What makes this tour unique?
It’s a story-driven adventure that transforms Vancouver’s Old Town into your own real-life puzzle board, blending discovery, mystery, and exploration.

The Dominion Building (Pass by)
The Dominion was built from 1908-1910 by J.S. Heyler.

Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
The Sun Tower (Pass by)
Built in 1911-1912, the heritage value of the Sun Tower is found in its distinctive landmark architecture, its association with Louis D.

Sam Kee Building (Pass by)
Built in 1913, the Sam Kee Building at Pender and Carrall is celebrated for its architectural ingenuity, its cultural significance to the Chinese community and the impressive history of its namesake.

Gassy Jack (Pass by)
The statue is a monument to "Gassy" Jack Deighton, a Vancouver saloon owner in the 1860s. Vancouver's Gastown neighbourhood is named for Deighton.

Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
Gaoler's Mews (Pass by)

Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
The Alibi Room (Pass by)
The building is a heritage site, which was erected over 100 years ago. It is positioned along the railyard only a short distance from Vancouver’s trade and shipping ports. All of these elements combined make for a unique and inspiring experience. The Alibi has established itself as a place for neighbours and community to share in great food, fantastic beer and culture. Here you will have to look around to find the answer to our challenge to advance to the new location and learn the storey of this place.
