Overview

Our very unique, immersive adventures are the only ones of their kind. We, unlike other companies, provide your very own remote, interactive, live host to assist and encourage you along through your phone. We are an Austin, TX-based global custom event design company offering scavenger hunts and other events in 300+ cities in North America and beyond. Our specially hand-crafted adventures are equal parts tour, creative challenge, detective hunt, and social experiment!

Guests get to discover in an alternate reality our favorite hidden gems off the beaten trail and creatively interpret fun art, history, and culture clues - for points! They get to enjoy fame and glory while appearing on our website’s international leaderboard, no matter what their score. They get to essentially race other teams in other cities, even if they don’t have competitors who have signed up in their city that day. Get ready to discover unusual oddities, laugh out loud, and make the experience your own!

Itinerary

Your creative, nontraditional scavenger hunt begins at a scenic spot that's a local favorite. You'll get your digital quest from your live and interactive remote host. Then you’ll take off on your own to experience a wide variety of carefully curated locations in town. You'll walk or drive to the various checkpoints as you solve clues, accept wacky challenges, and getting outside your comfort zone!

Both family and dog friendly, the game alternates between the indoors and outdoors, with plenty of bonus challenges too! You'll text photos to your remote host, who cheers you on and assists, as you play to document your progress. You can even interact with the locals to solve clues. You won’t be able to avoid having fun, uncovering hidden gems and local secrets, making memories, laughing, and learning along the way! 

You’ll be part of the rich culture of this dynamic city! Every turn is full of surprises, so questions in advance are welcomed.

    This hunt was active & fun! We learned A LOT about Galveston while we laughed trying to figure out the stops through the clues. You need to be comfortable interacting with some shop owners for "help" - we found everyone to be super kind. The virtual host was helpful and kept us motivated. It's important to know that your captain must have a fully charged phone and can navigate the clues through WhatsApp as this is how the host communicates and how the map is sent. Our family enjoyed our 2 hours! We found the need to drive to portions of the hunt (due to the weather) and there is a lot of walking between a few clues which we expected~Just info for those with mobility needs. We will use this company again!

    It was a fun time. You get out of it what you put into it. The more we interacted with people the more we learned and the more interesting it was. Look forward to doing it again in a different city.

    This was a great opportunity to see spots we would not have known to look for without the scavenger hunt. I recommend doing it in the order provided and not the reverse order.

    My daughter and I had a blast running around Galveston. Checking out the shops and finding out a lot about the history of Galveston. Doing the challenges were fun too.

    This was our only fail in Galveston. Maybe if we’d gone earlier in the week before we’d already seen most everything on the hunt, it might have been more entertaining. Several shop keepers mentioned that it needs to be updated.
