Big Walk Tool and Gear Locations: All 96 in 21 Types

Open the Gear layer and select one type before searching.

The five Gear types with one starting marker

Four of the five sit close together in the middle of the island. The Folding map and the Compass are at the same spot, and the Ball and the Cue card are a short walk away on either side. Centre the gear layer on that area and you can see all four in one view.

The Coordinate reader is the exception. It starts in the south-east, beside a bank of gourd stands, a long way from the other four. If your group loses track of it, the marker can only show its starting position.

These markers record where the tools start. Once a movable tool has been picked up, check with teammates before walking back to its original marker.

Every type and how many there are

The six Kettle starting markers overlap near the north coast, and the three Cowbell starting markers overlap elsewhere. Three of the seven Laser pointer starting markers share the Folding map location.

The game and map call the light a Flashlight; British English also uses torch.

Radios and broadcast stations

The Radio Station locations guide covers the station route and both extra Radios. Use it when Radio is the only Gear type left on your list.

Clocks are at the train stations

All six Clock starting markers are at train stations, and six of the seven stations have one. Switch on Clocks and Train stations together and the gap is easy to spot. The northern station without a Clock marker is the odd one out.

If the map shows no Clock marker at your station, you are at the north-east station.

The kit waiting at every tower

The four banks of five gourd stands, the ones whose size matches what each coloured tower asks for, share the same set of Gear markers. Each bank has starting markers for Binoculars, a Laser pointer, Goggles and a Flashlight. The south-east bank also has the Coordinate reader starting marker nearby.

Gear and stands on the same map shows the pattern across all four sites at once. Arrive with your hands free instead of carrying tools that are already waiting there.

Backpacks and Hip packs

The Backpack and Hip pack locations guide links all eleven bags and explains the teammate equip step. Use it when carrying gear is the only part of the Gear layer you need.

Finding one type on the map

Open the Gear layer and leave only the required type checked. This is most useful for Flashlights and Walkie-talkies, where the full category contains more markers than a group usually needs at once.
