Bring power banks
A full day of scanning and photos drains phones. A battery pack in the bag stops the hunt ending at four in the afternoon.
Private events
A treasure hunt for a hen party or a stag do
A thread running through the day, instead of a minute-by-minute schedule.
Organising a hen party or a stag do is mostly about managing a group: ten people who don't all know each other, a schedule that slips, and dead time between two booked activities.
A treasure hunt across town fills exactly those gaps. It gives the walking a direction, occupies the journeys, and gets people talking who come from completely different circles — childhood friends, colleagues, in-laws.
How to go about it
- 1
Follow the route you already have
Put a QR code at each stop you had planned anyway: the lunch bar, the park, the afternoon terrace. The hunt follows the programme instead of competing with it.
- 2
Ask about the guest of honour
Their first job, their nickname at school, the name of their first pet. The questions bring out stories, and the group learns something along the way.
- 3
Give a code to an accomplice
A friend outside the group can hold a QR code and hand it over in exchange for a forfeit. That adds a stage without any complicated planning.
- 4
Play in two teams
The live leaderboard turns the trail into a competition. Two teams are enough to create rivalry without splitting the group up.
Example questions
Each question offers four possible answers, only one of which is correct. You decide how many points it is worth.
- What was Clara's nickname at school?
- Which country did she first travel to on her own?
- What is her favourite cocktail?
- How many times has she moved house since turning twenty?
Advice from the field
Keep the codes in your pocket
Nothing says the QR codes have to be hidden in advance. Pulling them out at each stop works just as well, and saves you a trip to set them up the day before.
Keep the questions easy
A question that's too hard stalls the group and kills the rhythm. On a celebration day, easy and funny beats clever every time.
Frequently asked questions
Can we play while moving around a whole city?+
Yes. The QR codes aren't tied to any location: you can hide them, hand them to accomplices, or pull them out of your pocket at each stop on the route.
How many people can take part?+
As many as you like, with no limit. Everyone plays from their own phone, or in teams sharing one phone between two or three.
Can we set it up the day before?+
Yes, and we'd recommend it. Creating the hunt takes about ten minutes, and the printed QR codes stay valid for as long as the hunt exists.
