From a map you build to a treasure at your door.
Every hunt has two sides: the creator who designs it, and the explorer who walks it. Both follow short, clear flows.
Three steps to extract.
Join a hunt, prove you stood at each waypoint, then exit through an extraction to lock your rewards in for good.
Join a hunt
Pick a hunt from your home feed and tap to join. If it has a participant cap, you'll be slotted into a FIFO queue and admitted as soon as a place frees up.
Reach each waypoint
Navigate to the waypoint in the real world and step inside its 15 m geofence. Verify with a QR scan, NFC tap, BLE beacon — or a selfie reviewed by the creator if the markers won't cooperate. Solve any challenges or quests the creator put in your way.
Collect, then extract
Each completed waypoint can give you one treasure for your 10-slot virtual backpack. Reach an extraction waypoint before your session runs out to keep everything — and the creator ships your real prizes to you.
Five steps to publish.
The planning wizard walks you through every decision — info, waypoints, markers, treasures — then validates the whole map before it lets you release.
Info
Name your hunt, pick a structure — Breadcrumb, Constellation or Delta — and set the time rules: open-ended with an extraction buffer, or event-based with a hard end date.
Waypoints
Drop Start, Path and Extraction waypoints on the map. Choose a verification method per waypoint: geofence only, or geofence plus a progress marker scan.
Progress markers
Assign QR, NFC or BLE markers from your Progress Marker Vault and place them within 5 m of each waypoint — with a location clue so players can find the physical tag.
Treasures
Stash treasures from your Treasure Vault on your waypoints — the real prizes you'll ship to players who extract with them.
Summary & validate
The wizard checks the whole plan — reachability, marker coverage, safety — then you test-walk it yourself before advancing it to Release.
Want game mechanics too? An optional Gameplay editor adds challenges, quests, items and clues on top of any plan — see Features.
Three ways to prove "I was here".
A waypoint can be verified by location alone, by a physical marker you scan, or by a selfie reviewed by the creator if all else fails.
QR code
Print and stick. The player scans with the device camera — torch toggle built in for dim spots.
NFC tag
Tap to read. The app suppresses Android's default tag handler so the scan happens cleanly inside Treasure Hunt.
BLE beacon
Battery-powered and ambient. The app detects it by its iBeacon identity — works hands-free the moment the player walks into range.
Selfie verification is always available as a fallback, reviewed manually by the creator.
