If the idea of going on a quest for amazing local food while discovering fun history, art and cultural facts through a self-guided interactive game sounds awesome, then you’re an Alberta Food Finder.

Welcome.

The Alberta Food Finder is Canada’s first food-focused GPS-enabled mobile app game. We’ve been researching Alberta’s food scene for over 15 years and this game shares all our favourite spots along with bite-size stories of history, art and food artisans.

How it works:

The Alberta Food Finder game is a GPS-enabled quest delivered on your mobile device. You pay for it here on our site. Your game code is emailed immediately. You download a free app called “Loquiz”. Then, you start by simply entering your team name and members (you can have up to 4 team members per device).

Gameplay:

You’ll be given an Alberta Food Finder quest! Clues to help you complete your mission will pop up on a map of the area where your quest is located. Once you complete each clue, the next clue will appear. There are 29 clues to solve in the Kensington quest in Calgary, for example. As you solve each clue, the game will guide you through a tour of restaurants and food specialty shops as well as local history, art and culture stops. Some of our independent Alberta business partners have prepared Alberta Food Finder ONLY samples for you to try. At others you’ll enjoy exclusive discounts and promos. To finish your quest, and be our local food hero, you’ll need to answer all of the clues so stay sharp out there!
