Such game could be an extraordinary experience to all participants and can be an exceptional event in the list of an ordinary activities we live every\u00a0<\/span>day. \u00a0Full generations grew up on adventure stories and films starting with classical french writers <\/span>Jules Verne and Alexandre Dumas with their blowing mind adventure stories until \u201cIndiana Jones\u201d and \u201cStar trek\u201d movies which immortalized their producers in cinema history. We strongly believe that all these still relevant today and that\u2019s why we created our portal. We strongly<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"indiana-jones-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0believe that despite \u201cvirtualization\u201d there will be always people who will seek for adventure, c<\/span>hallenges and puzzles and not only in the video games or cinema but involving surroundings and physical object<\/span>s\u00a0<\/span>transforming the game to the reality. So if you\u2019re after Sherlock, <\/span>Jack Sparrow, Indiana Jones or any other adventure story our portal is for you and using our experience we would like to share some ideas which can be\u00a0<\/span>used while creating your own game.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"pirate-idea-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"The Idea<\/span> \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The idea for the game might depend on the occasion you have: is it birthday or marriage party? Is it for kids or adults. Is it Valentine’s Day present? Maybe you want to make your visit to one of the museums during your vacation with your family more exciting and educational?<\/span><\/p>\n

Chose a story line based on the theme which is favorite for the participants and will excite them of experiencing it in a real life<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Once theme of the game is decided, think about the object which needs to be found. It can be in the same way physical or virtual object. For example pirate party can be seeking for the location of buried gold in your garden. For visiting in Louvre it can be discovery mysterious object of Da Vinci. For \u00a0Valentine’s Day or any other birthday – object might be the present itself. Actually ANYTHING can be presented in format of the game, but the process of seeking it will make it unforgettable. And that\u2019s our aim.<\/span> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\"schatzkarte-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

After you decided theme and the object the next step is to consider environment. Do you plan it in house? Does it have garden? Do you plan it on the streets of the city? What time in a day – is it dark or sunny? All that can impact your plans. Think carefully as even small detail which unexpectedly changed (for example it\u2019s started raining) might heavily impact your game. <\/span><\/p>\n

This a reason why in our portal we make it possible to change game conditions at any time so you\u2019re flexible to adjust to the changes around you.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Number of people<\/b><\/span><\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span>\u00a0\"piraten-truppe-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Consider number of people which will play. We do not recommend many people sharing same game as it will be difficult to produce equal engagement to discuss solution and being part of the team. Instead, in case you have enough members to play, produce a competitive game where group of participants (teams) will compete each other with a target to reach the object first.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most complex part is to create tasks which will be challenging and interesting one side and on another will not frustrate people from not being able to crack it. So it will be very helpful to provide hints which can be used in case person is struggling to provide right answer. We implemented a functionality giving a capability to provide hints to the participant.<\/span><\/p>\n

Generally it\u2019s good practice to keep tasks fitting to your theme so overall picture of \u201caugmented reality\u201c will not be disturbed. So if you hunting pirate treasure keep task related to pirates life and attributes. If you run a street game based on \u201cAssassin’s creed\u201d – keep all task being a \u201cdangerous \u00a0mission\u201d. For Harry Potter fans it\u2019s not necessary to re-use original book but preferable to keep a \u201cmagic ambience\u201d of the storyline. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is list of simple tricks and objects which potentially can be used in any standard household:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Identify target objects visible in the mirror<\/span><\/li>\n

    \"unsichtbar-tinte-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/p>\n

    There are two types of invisible ink:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • You can buy very cheap inks almost in any online story and use it for you game on almost any surface<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Lemon and Fire – create amazing hidden inscriptions on the paper simply writing using lemon acid. And heating paper afterwards using matches or stove. Note: this is of course not recommended for kids unless it\u2019s done under full observation of adults<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \"alice-wunderland-schluessel-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"Almost any adventure story requires to open some door behind which you will find all treasures of the world<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • Use simple master lock with numbers where each number might be hidden in a separate question to crack<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Mix different keys matching different doors and make players finding the proper key answering questions which will lead to the decision which key to use<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Create an association between hosting place and attributes around you into something which will match your theme. Players will need to understand what is meant here. For example<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        • Name kitchen as a \u201cgalley on the pirate ship\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Entrance to the house as \u00a0\u201centrance to wonderland\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
        • Or Museum into old castle with guards around you which you need to escape<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

          There is absolutely no limit on things which can be created and any location <\/span>can be converted into imaginary ambience which will match your theme.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/p>\n

          \u2666 Inscriptions<\/strong> <\/span> \u2666<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

          This is absolutely favorite attribute and used in most of successful adventure stories.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \"egyptian-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          • Inscription can be a trigger to the game, depends on the way you present it to the participant (about presentation please read more here)<\/span><\/li>\n
          • Inscription can contain special letters which might be used to find and combine keyword<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

             <\/p>\n

              \n
            • Inscription can miss some letters, address or coordinates which need to be discovered to get progress to the next level<\/span><\/li>\n
            • Inscription can be given in special signs\/code which needs be cracked based on some key<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Here you can get inspired by <\/span>Treasure Island<\/span>, Sherlock or many other stories using this as a base for story line.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

               <\/p>\n

              \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u2666 Navigation\u00a0\u2666<\/span>\"compass-gps-schatzsuche-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

              We can distinguish 2 major types of location based:<\/span><\/p>\n

                \n
              • Location using modern GPS systems which can be very useful in street games so person will need to find some objects using capabilities of modern navigations<\/span><\/li>\n
              • Compass – for those who prefers old style navigation compass and \u201cnumber of steps to the north from the old tree\u201d could be great experience for discovering things. Please note if you go for this option we recommend you not to go for \u00a0cheapest option, as such compass can\u2019t be trusted for stability<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                \u2666 Design\u00a0\u2666<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

                Attributes design – we\u2019re producing games ourself and designing it in the way attributes are fit to the game theme. We invite you to get inspiration from our materials or party design recommendation we\u2019ve produced. As a great example – physically burnt map can be great attribute for many types of adventure games<\/span><\/p>\n

                 <\/p>\n

                \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u2666 Virtual objects \u2666<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span>

                Our days virtual objects can be used as any other attribute to be part of the game<\/span><\/p>\n

                  \n
                • As an example post in Facebook with some hint can be used as part of the game<\/span><\/li>\n
                • Or link to website with physical address or coordinates on google map can create nice collaboration between reality and virtual objects <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                   <\/p>\n

                   <\/p>\n

                  \u2666 Personalization<\/strong> <\/span>\u2666<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

                  One of the main factors of the game which might fully engage participant and add final \u201ctouch\u201d to the game. You can use personal details, sometimes known only for particular participant which will transform it to be very special for him.<\/span><\/p>\n

                   <\/p>\n

                  There are of course many more possibilities or attributes to convert your game into special event and we keep it for your imagination to implement them.<\/span><\/p>\n

                   <\/p>\n

                  \"kinder-piraten-kindergeburtstag-schnitzeljagd-partyspiele-kinderspiele-geburtstagsspiele\"<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Such games are natively interested for kids while almost any type of event for kids can be celebrated this way. Additional value for kids it\u2019s educational part of the game which can be a real benefit and fun. That\u2019s why we decided to focus on those games. Actually any subject can be covered even in one theme: history, math, geography, language and more and more.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  Additional benefit is possibility of engagement between parents and kids to play this game together and have joined experience of adventure. We really recommend parents to rethink using standard approach of booking simple \u201cplayhouse event\u201d but instead doing something fun and inspiring together with kids.<\/span><\/p>\n
