Create scavenger hunt

To start off your scavenger hunt, think of multiple questions/challenges that your player needs to solve. Each challenge should end up in some kind of answer or code to unlock the next challenge.

You can enter anything ranging from some quiz questions to setting up custom puzzles per challenge and share a code once you finish that puzzle.

You can customize the header question, the description, the image, an external link and of course the code to unlock the next challenge.

The colors can be customized via the Premium Custom Styling options.

You can customize the interactions of your online scavenger hunt by disabling the Premium 'Open new window for link' for example. This way the external links will be opened within the same browser tab.

Be careful though, combine this only with 'Reload given answers' so that answers given previously do not get lost.

Last but not least is the ' Has Lockout period' which prevents entering too many guesses and will lock out the player after a number of wrong attempts and will lock the player for any given number of seconds.

The online scavenger hunt interface for the players is nice and clean and blurs the future challenges until they are unlocked.

On smaller screens, players will be able to easily scroll/swipe through the challenges, to make the scavenger hunt fully responsive.

A very useful feature within Puzzel.org to combine with the scavenger hunt puzzles, is the 'Completion message'. This will pop up once a player completes a puzzle and can give any information you like. An external link, a code, a description, an image, whatever you can think of!

This is a Premium feature and can be activated via the 'Message on completion' > 'Show message' option. And it even has 'Confetti' if you like :)

To make your scavenger hunt even more interesting to follow, you can add an unlock date/time for each challenge. This way you can extend one scavenger hunt to last multiple days for instance, unlocking a fresh challenge at a certain time each day. This can be enabled via the 'Add unlock date/time to challenge' setting on the Premium-tab.

If you combine this with 'Reload given answers' from the Premium-tab, you can be sure that players can continue their challenge where they left off.

To create even more fun interactions with your scavenger hunt, try out the 'Play in teams' feature on the Premium-tab. It sets up team registrations and once you start the team battle, it will connect all of the team members.

Every time a team member enters a correct code for one of the challenges, it will synchronise this completed challenge with the rest of the team so that you can continue to the next challenge together.

Extra cool is the team dashboard that you have as the scavenger hunt owner, via the Premium > 'Open Control room'. There you can see the progress of each team and monitor who finishes first! :-)
