Playing Side Quest in Seoul

Seoul is vertical, late and generous with side dishes. These quests climb hill neighbourhoods until the stairs run out, clear every banchan on the table and use the city at hours other places are shut.

Best time to play
Evening into late night — and check the last subway train before you commit.
Local rule
Pour for others before yourself, and receive with two hands from anyone older.
Honest note
The hillside villages are residential. Play them quietly, early or late, not in a group.

Where are you right now?

No location access needed — just tell us the city.

What is a travel side quest?

A side quest is a small, self-contained challenge you can complete wherever you happen to be standing. Side Quest is a free browser-based travel game from Buy Before You Fly: you tell it which city you are exploring, choose the kind of adventure you are in the mood for, and it hands you something unexpected to do. Every quest is built from an objective, a constraint that makes it interesting, and an optional bonus — so instead of another list of the same twenty attractions, you get a reason to walk down a different street, order something you cannot pronounce, or look at one painting for twenty minutes.

There is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for. It works on the phone in your pocket, in the gap between a late checkout and an evening flight, or on a full free day in a city you have never visited.

How Side Quest works

  1. Pick your place. Search for the city you are exploring. No location permission and no precise GPS required.
  2. Choose a category. Food, museums, landmarks, exploring, photography, culture, outdoors or hidden gems — or let the dice decide.
  3. Get your quest. Each one comes with a mission, a catch and a bonus objective worth extra points.
  4. Earn points. Quick quests are worth 50 points and epic ones 500, with bonuses from 25 to 100 on top.
  5. Screenshot and share. Completing a quest turns it into an achievement card built to fit a phone screenshot.

Side Quest ideas for travelers

Food & Drink

Markets, bakeries, street food and the dish locals order without looking at the menu.

Museums

One room, one object, one story — museum challenges that beat drifting past everything.

Must-Do

The landmark experiences, with a twist that stops them feeling like a checklist.

Explore

Neighbourhood walks, wrong turns on purpose and streets guidebooks skip.

Photo Quest

Small photo missions that train you to notice details other travellers walk past.

Local Culture

Language, music, craft, ritual and everyday life where you happen to be standing.

Outdoors

Parks, water, viewpoints and green detours between the busy bits.

Hidden Gems

The small, quiet, odd and overlooked corners of a city.

Play Side Quest with friends

Side Quest has no accounts, no friend lists and no leaderboards to join — which is exactly what makes it easy to play together. Everyone opens the page on their own phone, plays the same city, and compares screenshots at dinner. Agree on a target before you split up: first to 500 points, most quests completed before sunset, or one epic quest each. Points are kept in your own browser, so the only scoreboard is the one you keep between you.

  • 100 — Explorer
  • 500 — Wanderer
  • 1,000 — Adventurer
  • 2,500 — Globetrotter
  • 5,000 — Side Quest Legend
