: The Exploration Game activity will begin in a well known London location e.g. Piccadilly Circus. From there you'll begin before the latest start time (if applicable, some hunt start times can be 24/7) just reply to your welcome message with 'start'.
The London Exploration Games will then provide the first clue, that can be broken down into two components. Firstly, you'll receive a set of obscured directions that you'll solve and follow the references to the next location. Secondly, there will be a riddle to work out - you'll find the answer lurking in London's rich history all around you.
