No venue matches that search.
Hours that actually change your route
Search only filters the Lagos list. The Port Harcourt control stays disabled and marked closed, so a search for Trans-Amadi will not reveal those pins. Port Harcourt International Airport, Mama Ibiba's Bole Spot, Mile One Market, Port Harcourt Pleasure Park, Trans-Amadi Oil Base, Port Harcourt Mall, Hotel Presidential, Garden City Lounge remain in the hidden rows until that city opens.
Elegushi Beach, New Afrika Shrine, Quilox, The Library, Ivory Rooftop cross midnight. Elegushi Beach runs 8:00 to 4:00, the Shrine and The Library run late, Quilox runs 22:00 to 5:00, and Ivory Rooftop runs 12:00 to 1:00. A pin that is still staffed after midnight is a different plan from Amala Shitta, which serves 7:00 to 22:00 in Surulere.
Click a crown or a venue name to pair the pin with its row. The crowns are map marks, not photographs. Balogun, CcHub in Yaba, The Palms, Quilox, and the University of Lagos are ordinary places with their own hours and descriptions underneath.
How players use the register
Eat at Amala Shitta when a wish or a hunger bar demands it. The queue is part of that venue, and Mama Nkechi haunts it from 7:00 to 22:00. Balogun is the haggling floor for textile money and for Alhaji Musa. Quilox is the late club, and i-Fitness in Ikoyi is the early gym.
General Hospital, the courthouse, Naija Radio House, and CcHub are also workplaces. A venue row is enough to plan the visit. The career page attaches the pay ladder to the same workplace name. If a row is hidden, do not budget a shift there. Oil and Gas at the Trans-Amadi base is the clear case.
Treat midnight venues as a second shift. If you are already tired, Quilox from 22:00 and the Shrine past midnight will ask for fun and energy you may have spent in Balogun. Amala Shitta will not still be plating at 1:00.
Player questions
- Can I open a Port Harcourt pin from search?
- No. The city control for Port Harcourt is disabled, and the filter keeps every non-Lagos row hidden even when the search box contains its name. You can still read the eight closed venues, but they are not a route you can walk today. Plan Lagos pins only, and treat Trans-Amadi, Mile One, and the Port Harcourt mall as closed until that city opens.
- Do the crowns use real map photography?
- No. Each crown is a button placed from where the venue sits in Lagos, scaled inside the frame so the pin stays on the board. The drawing beside the list is a diagram, not a satellite photo and not a picture of the shopfront. Read the area and the hours in the row. The area and the hours are what you need for the visit.
