Customize Hunt Locations

Customize a published Hunt by swapping in your own locations. Build the route around your favorite restaurants, bars, campus spots, event stops, or local places your group wants to visit — especially in areas where active Hunt Sponsor locations are still coming online. The Hunt gives you the structure; you make it fit your plans.

Create Your Own Hunt

Use Creator Access to build and publish your own app-guided activity with no code. Start with templates and tutorials, then add your locations, images, audio, clues, puzzles, quizzes, decision points, QR checkpoints, directions, and even AR moments.

Become a Hunt Sponsor

The Hunt is Built for the places that give a city its personality. Restaurants, cafés, bars, boutiques, bookstores, bowling alleys, escape rooms, arcades, family entertainment centers, museums, attractions, local shops, downtown favorites, campus-area spots, and the places people tell their friends about.
The Hunt gives those businesses a fresh way to participate in the fun, feature something special, and see measurable engagement from customers who scanned in.
Create your launch account, choose your monthly cap, and get your secure Sponsor Dashboard invite. From there, you can set your location, participation hours, welcome message, offer instructions, and QR checkpoint.

Questions

Everything you need to know about becoming a Hunt Sponsor location and playing the game.

What is The Hunt?

The Hunt is an app-guided scavenger hunt platform for playing, customizing, and creating real-world experiences. You can jump into a professionally produced Hunt, customize a published Hunt with your own locations, or create something completely your own for friends, teams, events, trainings, campuses, fundraisers, and bar crawls.

What can I do in The Hunt app?

You can play a sponsored Hunt, customize the locations in a published Hunt, or use Creator Mode to build your own. Depending on the Hunt, players may follow clues, scan QR checkpoints, answer questions, unlock exclusive offers, follow directions, play as a team, or move through a custom route created for a specific group or event.

Can I play by myself or with a group?

Yes. Creator Mode is built directly into The Hunt app. You can start with templates and tutorials, add your own locations, clues, instructions, QR checkpoints, images, audio, questions, and decision points, then publish privately and share a join code with your group. Your custom Hunt can stay private and only be seen by the people you invite.

What if there are not active Hunt Sponsor locations near me yet?

The Hunt is launching everywhere, and active sponsor locations will grow over time. You can still customize a published Hunt with your own locations or create a custom Hunt for your group, event, training, campus, fundraiser, or crawl. That flexibility means The Hunt can work even while new sponsor locations are still coming online in your area.

What is a Hunt Sponsor?

A Hunt Sponsor is a participating local business that can become part of the Hunt experience. Players visit the location, scan a QR checkpoint, and unlock the sponsor’s welcome message and offer instructions. For businesses, it creates a new way to bring engaged customers through the door and track verified player visits.

Can local businesses join The Hunt?

Yes. Restaurants, cafés, bars, boutiques, bookstores, entertainment venues, attractions, escape rooms, bowling alleys, and other local businesses can become Official Hunt Sponsor Locations. Sponsors can set participation hours, create offers, post their QR checkpoint, and track verified visits from their Sponsor Dashboard.

Can creators or IP owners publish Hunts for everyone?

Yes. Most Creator Hunts are private, but creators can submit polished Hunts for possible publication in The Hunt app. We are interested in working with writers, puzzle creators, escape room designers, influencers, educators, tourism creators, brands, storytellers, and IP owners who want to create great content for The Hunt audience. Public publication is reviewed by The Hunt team and is not automatic.

Can I help bring The Hunt to my city or campus?

Yes. Local partners, Territory Managers, campus advocates, agency partners, community connectors, and event-minded operators can help grow The Hunt in their market. Partners may help sign up Hunt Sponsors, create player engagement, support launch activity, and build local momentum. Qualified partners may have earning opportunities based on their role, market, and results.
