Hunts
In Backyard Hunt, a ‘hunt’ refers to a game or activity in which participants follow clues to reach an end goal. There are two main types of hunts you can engage in: Treasure Hunts and Scavenger Hunts, each offering a unique play experience.
Treasure Hunts
Treasure Hunts are structured with a specific order:
Sequential Clues: Players must solve each clue in order to receive a hint that leads them to the next one.
Ordered Progression: Each clue solved brings players closer to discovering the final location.
Final Clue: This special clue reveals the location of the treasure or reward, marking the culmination of the hunt.
Hint System: Each clue includes a hint to help players find the next clue’s location, enhancing the narrative and exploration elements of the hunt.
Scavenger Hunts
Scavenger Hunts offer a more flexible gameplay structure:
Random Order: There is no set order in which clues must be found. Players can find and solve clues in any sequence.
QR Codes as Identifiers: QR codes used in Scavenger Hunts do not correspond to specific locations but serve as unique identifiers. They can be placed randomly within the play area.
No Clue Hints: Clues do not include hints because their order and discovery are non-linear.
Completion: The hunt is completed when all clues have been found and solved, regardless of the order.
Choosing and Creating Hunts
Curated Hunts: Users can select from a variety of pre-designed, themed hunts, suitable for different age groups and interests.
Custom Hunts: For those looking to personalize their experience, the app allows users to create their own hunts, customizing everything from the theme to the complexity of the clues.
By understanding the differences between Treasure and Scavenger Hunts, players can choose the style that best suits their group’s interests and dynamics, ensuring an engaging and enjoyable hunting experience.
