You gave us great feedback!
We’ve added enhanced Dark Mode features for image and text display and our Map is now interactive. You choose what to see from the Map. We’ve also added detailed walking directions for Places on the route, and a new 15 second rewind feature to our audio.
Most important, you still pick and choose your order, what to see and when to see it.
Take a deep dive and explore where NYC began all with no advertisements, no collection of your data, no tracking where you go and all optimized to make it easy without zapping your battery.

More great content! We've updated our historic image text for new and surprising stories. For instance, did you know that the Jackson Heights neighborhood where Scrabble was invented decided that if it had to pay for its street signs, it would customize them, with Scrabble ’letter-values’ next to each letter!

We have completely reconfigured how you explore Brooklyn Heights, giving you the flexibility to customize your experience, choosing what to see, how long to spend there and in what order to see it. We still provide a map of course, along with our suggested touring route, but you can now experience Brooklyn wholly on your terms, at your pace, on your time, on your phone or tablet.

This next generation of PlaceChase is just as engaging as the original but we have made it even easier to navigate and added more images of your favorite neighborhoods. The Map is now interactive and provides images of the Places you are chasing as well as their location. Of course, you still can simply navigate the Chase using the hints without the Map if your prefer the challenge. Once you have found each Place, something hidden there in plain sight will answer the second question which we've made multiple choice.
