Frequently asked questions

What kind of adventure is this?

Do we need to download an app?
No. The current experience plays in a supported mobile browser. You will need mobile data and location permission. Some adventures also use Finder Mode and require camera permission.
How many phones do we need?
One phone can lead a group, or everyone can open the same private play link on their own phone. When an adventure offers team play, each person uses that link and chooses from up to six teams before joining.
Is the adventure walking or driving?
It depends on the adventure. Each detail page identifies its travel format when that information has been confirmed.
How long does it take?
Durations are estimates. There is no countdown or failure for taking longer, so your group can move at its own pace.
Can children play?
Clue difficulty varies. Adults and guardians should choose an appropriate adventure, supervise minors, and make all safety decisions.
When can we start?
After creating an adventure and receiving your private link, your group can begin on its own schedule unless the adventure page lists daylight, access, or availability guidance.
What happens if we get stuck?
Adventures can include up to three progressively more helpful hints for each clue. The detail page shows whether hints are available throughout that adventure.
Is the game private?
Your adventure creates an unlisted private play link. Adventures that offer team play can keep separate progress for up to six teams. Anyone with the valid link may be able to join, so share it only with intended players.
What do we need?
Bring a charged phone with mobile data, location permission, suitable clothing and footwear, and awareness of your surroundings. Camera permission is needed for adventures that include Finder Mode.
