Step 1: Plan your event

The Pro Plan is great for building Scavenger Hunts for your team-building events, new employee orientation, guided tours, and campus orientations. Here are some questions worth considering when you're planning your event:

  • How do I distribute the game to my players?

  • What does the game look like?

  • Do I want players to register, or should I pre-register them?

  • Do you want to get a notification or send the player's data to a URL every time someone new registers?

  • Am I setting up teams, or are players participating as individuals?

  • What type of Challenges will they enjoy?

  • What will they earn for participating?

As you write the answers to these questions, you'll find out how you want the game to be played by your attendees. These answers will help you easily set up your game.

Step 2: Add Challenges

Challenges will give players points and rewards. There are multiple options to choose from, here's a list as well as detailed instructions on how to add them:
