In more detail:

We don't want to give too much away and spoil the fun, but here's a bit more info...

Our fully-interactive Durham (Central Area) Corporate GPS treasure hunt is the perfect activity for Team Building Groups looking for something to do either in their home town or city or when visiting somewhere new. A great way to get everybody out in the fresh air for a few hours, exploring the streets and having fun with a bit of good old competitiveness thrown in too!

What it's all about...

Setting off from the start point chosen, you and your Team Mates set off and navigate yourselves to the ’huntfun hotspots’ where challenges including clues to answer and tasks and activities to be completed can be accessed.

You will be awarded ’points’ for correctly completing the challenges set.

Scores are calculated real time so you are able to see how you and the other teams hunting with you are doing at any time.

The aim of our GPS treasure hunt is to gain as many ’points’ as possible in the allocated time.

You will earn bonus ’points’ for getting to the finish early and penalties will be incurred if you are late!

Strategy and team work are key in planning your route carefully to ensure you get as many ’points’ as possible. If you access a hint only half the ’points’ available will be awarded!

Choose a theme...

Some of the clues will be based on things around the area you are hunting in, some will be based on the theme you choose and some we have thrown in just for the fun of it! We are always looking at new themes so do keep coming back as new themes will be available soon.

Choose your Weapon...

This Optional free feature allows you to interact with nearby teams! You can now choose to virtually defend yourself against spying opponents.
Pick up a pie or a pistol during your hunt and use it to take out your enemies for extra points, you can also defend yourself and your points using umbrellas or bullet proof vests.
The Competition Just Got Fierce .

What you get...

We send you everything you need to do your GPS treasure hunt including full instructions so you can personalise and set up the hunt ready for use. Choose the length of hunt that's right for you (1 hour 1 1/2hours 2 hours) You will receive links for each of the teams competing (you need at least 3 participants, and we recommend no more than 4, in a team) and links to print out the handouts needed.

Each team will need a fully charged device to run the GPS hunt on, this can be an android device or iphone/ipads and a printed copy of the ’help’ and ’map’ sheets.

You can decide your start and finish locations and how long the teams have to complete the hunt.

There is an option to add pub and/or cafe clues. (If you are going to stop for refreshments or even lunch ensure this is factored in when the hunt timer is set).

Select your Attack and Defence, or choose the peaceful option!

Answers are marked real time so teams can see how they and competing teams are doing as they go and you can check the scores at the end and announce the winning team.
