How it works
Everything you need for your adventure.
1.1 Place quiz stations
As the game master, you first need to place the quiz stations on the map:
• Select a quiz from the table
• Click on the map to set the marker
• Markers are automatically numbered
• Maintain a minimum distance of 30m between stations
• For treasure hunts, the last marker is the location of the treasure
• Hide the treasure there for the children
• For other games like Photo Safaris, no treasure is hidden
• The game ends there with solving the last riddle
1.2 Optimize locations
Consider the following when placing stations:
• Choose easily accessible, public locations
• Avoid dangerous or heavily trafficked roads
• Consider the age of the players when planning routes
• The total route should be walkable on foot
• Use the address search to quickly find specific locations
1.3 Check the route
After placing all markers:
• Click on "Save and calculate route"
• Check the displayed total distance
• Test the route yourself if possible
• You can remove markers by clicking on them
2.1 Navigation
You have two navigation options:
• Compass: Shows the direction to the next destination
• Map: Shows the exact position and route
• The distance to the target is displayed at the bottom
• Switch between compass and map with the button at the top right
2.2 Solve quizzes
At each station:
• Quiz opens automatically within 10m radius
• Read the task carefully
• For multiple choice: Choose one of the options
• For photo tasks: Use the camera
• For text input: Type your answer
2.3 Use help
If you can't continue:
• Click on "I need help"
• You will receive step-by-step hints
• As a last option, the solution can be displayed
• Hints remain available later
🎯 For game masters
• For treasure hunt games: Hide the treasure just before the game starts
• Choose a weather-protected location for the treasure
• Check the accessibility of all stations
• Plan alternative routes for construction sites etc.
• Remember the route you planned
• You can change the stations at any time

❓ How does the outdoor treasure hunt work?
The treasure hunt runs right in your mobile browser (Safari or Chrome). GPS guides you to each station where exciting riddles await.
❓ What do I need to play?
You only need a smartphone or tablet with GPS - Android or Apple, either works perfectly. For treasure hunt games you should also hide a small treasure at the final stop.
❓ What can I use as a treasure?
Anything fun works: small toys, candy, chocolate, or another surprise. It doesn’t have to be expensive. A themed container such as a small treasure chest adds to the excitement.
❓ What ages can take part?
Our quests are suitable for children ages 4 and up and adapt to the selected age range. Younger kids who can’t read yet may need a little help.
❓ How long does a game last?
Playtime depends on your route and the number of quizzes. Plan for roughly 30–90 minutes for a typical adventure. The setup shows you the expected walking distance.
❓ Where can we play the treasure hunt?
The quests automatically adjust to your chosen location. Play in a park, downtown, your neighborhood, or even the backyard.
❓ Do I need to prepare anything?
Preparation is quick and easy. Pick the stations on a map to create your personalized route and you’re ready to go in minutes.
❓ What happens if the weather turns bad?
A little rain is fine, but please postpone the game if thunderstorms or high winds are forecast to keep everyone safe.
❓ Can we pause the game?
Yes. You can pause at any time and continue later. Your progress is saved automatically.
❓ What if we can’t solve a quiz?
You receive up to three hints. If you’re still stuck, you can skip the quiz and keep the adventure moving.
❓ How many times can we play a purchased game?
Each quest can be completed twice.
❓ How long is a game valid?
Your game license is valid for one year from the purchase date.
❓ What if I placed a station at the wrong spot?
No worries - even if it ended up in a pond or on private property. You can adjust every station at any time, including while you play. Just reopen the setup and move the marker.
