Detailed itinerary

1

Welcome to one of the greatest adventures in Liverpool! Rise to the challenge and start your journey with courage from Ma Egerton's Stage Door. This is a pub built in 1846, whose name comes from the longest-serving landlady, Mary Egerton, who ran the pub in an enthusiastic way.
In a time of bustling theatres, picture houses and other related film and entertainment businesses, Miss Egerton was entertaining many icon performers, such as: Frank Sinatra, Charlie Chaplin or Harry Houdini. Word has it that she was involved in the case of the Victorian mass murderer, Dr. Crippen. You must investigate the place for evidence and answer the questions!

2

Now it’s time to reach St. George's Hall - one of the finest neo-classical buildings in the world and testament to Liverpool's heritage list. St. George’s Hall is unique in combining a concert hall and law courts, as we know by now that Liverpool folks like to sprinkle a little bit of art in everything they do.
Yet many people are still to discover the building’s mysterious past and the stories dating back to a dark history. The secrets are buried deep underground, in the cells below the grandness of the Great Hall, where those waiting to be condemned would spend their final moments. Bring those secrets to the surface and look around you to find the answer and advance!

3

Let’s play together at the Liverpool Playhouse, a well-known theatre in Williamson Square that acted as a launching pad for many famous actors, such as Anthony Hopkins, Richard Bird and Diana Wynyard.
Liverpool’s theatres have their fair share of ghost stories, but are they just stories or is there more to it? Get on the stage and play your role! While doing so, check your immediate surroundings because the answer may be next to you!

4

Here comes the Queen Victoria Monument, a large neo-Baroque and Beaux-Arts monument built in Derby Square. The central figure of Queen Victoria is surrounded by four groups of clustered pillars, each bearing at the top an allegorical group, with a summit figure of Victory.
You can sense that strange aura that drew you to this place, so continue your exploration to uncover its mystery and advance to your final destination!

5

You are close to the end of the game, but before that, let us introduce Liverpool as the birthplace of The Beatles, the rock band that still sends you chills down the spine with their songs. And in an attempt to celebrate their worldwide success, an entertainer named Tommy Steele built a statue as tribute to the Beatles.
It is called the Eleanor Rigby statue and it is dedicated to “All the lonely people…”, as it is inscripted near the monument. Don’t let the Beatles down and discover this last mystery, so you can call yourself a true Questo explorer!
