You can play it on the web or the app, though you’ll need the app to tackle the archive.

Spoilers ahead!

I managed to snag this one in just under a minute—59 seconds!—despite a few of these confounding me. I had no knowledge of Port Neuf or where it might be, and for whatever reason I associate IRL with “In real life” not moden shorthand. Still, most of these (like bar tabs and soup broth) were easy enough.
