Optional challenges will be available along your journey. Each completed Side Quest earns you a sizeable time reduction off your final time. Many of these side quests can be completed individually but are easier in a group. Some side quests require use of your phone, solving riddles, carrying items, finding lost items, or locating missing Goblins!

Here you’ll find just a few available Side Quests:

• Riddle of the Sphinx - Riddle

• Calling All Frogs - Hidden Location

• Potion of Speed - Missing Item

• The Goblin’s Gambit - Mystery Boss

• Lost Relic - Missing Item

• Duel of Champions - Activity

• Messenger’s Mission - Activity

• Stormveil Castle - Hidden Location

• Wild Hunt - Scavenger Hunt

Bosses are hidden along each path. You must find each boss in the allotted time, check in, and battle the them. For each win, you’ll be given a time reduction. For each loss you’ll have time added to your overall time. Ties grant no change in your time. How it works:

• Using your map, locate a hidden boss before they disappear. You may do this as a group!

• Each runner checks in using the QR code.

• Wait to be called upon by the boss for the battle. You may active your skill during the battle (for most of you, it’s only once per race).

• Your bib will be marked with a win or a loss, then calculated at the end.

Back at the Auburn Alehouse Annex, you’ll face the mighty Dragon! Turn in your collected rewards, roll your dice, and hope your bravery and cunning are enough to claim victory!

A Hero’s Farewell
Celebrate your triumph with a post-quest beer or cider and a commemorative t-shirt! Regardless of the outcome, you’re a true hero for taking on The Quest!

Good luck, adventurer. May your rolls be high and your path be clear!
