Frequently Asked Questions – Scavenger Hunt Programs
How do I book?
We will provide a quote and a description of the program including recommendations to make it a special event.
We will send you a confirmation note clarifying the days event and logistics involved.
What happens beforehand?
We create a unique hunt map based on all the best elements of the physical environment. We also put in special puzzles, unique trivia, special effects that are all mixed in to make it absolutely engaging. We then customise using our app technology and special applications to create an app purpose built for the program day.
The app will create a hi tech experience and allow for roam free navigation to each location using GPS clue markers. Significant customisation is factored in depending on location and group requirements.
What needs to be organised prior to the day?
We liaise with you to lock down logistics for the day and any special requests for the group. We send you a pdf confirming a logistics plan for the program.
Program length, meeting point, supervision, design considerations, winning team selection, finish location are all worked out.

We have done a scavenger hunt before what else can be considered?
Our newest programs have world class map technology creating a different scavenger hunt experience. No longer is it linear routes. We have special riddles and puzzles that can be customised to your event.
Is it physical?
Quite the contrary it is designed to be team oriented, to socialise, group problem solving. Our GPS maps allow us to design the locations of all GPS challenge hotspots and are arranged in a way to maximise the event experience and reduce wasted down time of walking between locations. This is a really important factor as we design to maximise team engagement and not time walking between locations.
How long does an event go for?
Do teams get training on the system?
Yes, we have one or two locations close by to the start point where we oversee learning the ipads. Generally groups are very quick in learning to use the format. We do give teams tips on how to use the electronic compass so that they maximise its use.

Finish Location
Consider what your group will be doing afterwards as this may influence the choice of route. In some cases we can finish the group right at the venue that they will be going to or we can help you consider a place to unwind and relax. Groups love to share stories afterwards so we can assist you to find a great place for an afterward place to unwind.
Settings
The more varied the setting the more interesting it becomes to stage the program. We like to utilize the best from the local landscape. We do use varies locations but large open spaces or parklands can be difficult at times as distances can be considerable for groups to traverse and the energy of the program can diminish. But we have latest in pokemon technology so we can just about take any location and turn it into a challenging hunt experience.
Group Mix
Try to make sure that there is a spread of talent and skills across a group. Do not put all the extraverts together! They love to be together but mixing them up creates the best outcome on the day. It will often depend on the occasion as to the best mix. We can give you suggestions.
