The real-world puzzle adventure will start in San Francisco on January 31st. After that it will be making its way to Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle, Phoenix, Houston, Chicago and New York. Teams of six will work together to solve puzzles, in order to save the world from Ganondorf.

Long time Zelda fans will want to get in on this action. Admission starts at $38(USD). If this is a hit, I imagine they will tour other themed live-action games in the future.
