How It Works


Before the Event

Once you’ve booked, we’ll help you choose the perfect location, event duration and hosting option for your group. We’ll plot the GPS hotspots, load any custom branding or questions (if included), and make sure everything is ready for game day. We also provide an Event Information page that you can share with your team to help everyone get ready to take part in the activity.

 

The Start

On the day, teams of 4-6 gather for a 15-minute race briefing before downloading the app and receiving their mission. We’ll explain how the game works, answer any questions and get everyone ready to compete.

 

During the Challenge

Teams head out to complete a series of Halloween-themed GPS hotspots over 90-minutes, completing spooky trivia, photo and video challenges to earn points and climb the leaderboard. The goal is simple: score as many points as possible before time runs out and claim victory in the ultimate Halloween showdown.

 

The Wrap-Up

When time’s up, everyone returns and joins the event manager back online for the results. We’ll announce the winners, showcase the live leaderboard and share some of the funniest photos and videos captured during the challenge—usually the highlight of the day!

 

After the Event

The competition may be over, but the memories live on. You’ll receive access to your event gallery, packed with the photos and videos captured by your teams—perfect for sharing with colleagues and celebrating your event.
