Virtual self-facilitated treasure hunt — a self-guided online scavenger hunt your remote team runs on its own schedule. Built for distributed and fully remote teams, this do-it-yourself virtual hunt turns a couple of hours online into real connection — with no on-site host to book and no prize to coordinate. Your group plays from wherever everyone logs in, on any day and at any hour, for teams of 10 to 500.
How the self-facilitated virtual hunt works
The hunt runs entirely on your timeline. After you book, your organizer receives an email with everything needed to play — the clue sets, challenge instructions, and a printable participant packet. Print or share one packet per participant, drop everyone into a video call, and your team is off. Because nothing has to be scheduled around a facilitator, you can run it the same day you book, at whatever time works across time zones.
Why a virtual team building scavenger hunt works
Colleagues who only ever meet on video calls get a couple of hours of shared, hands-on problem solving. Teams decode clues together, split into breakout groups, race through photo and trivia challenges, and laugh their way through the competition — the kind of wall-breaking experience that builds rapport people carry straight back to work. The goal is not a trophy; it is a distributed team that genuinely knows one another and collaborates more comfortably afterward.
Customizable augmented reality and challenges
The experience runs through an app with augmented-reality and photo challenges that can be tailored to your company goals, team interests, or event theme, so a corporate outing, an onboarding session, or a celebration each feels purpose-built rather than one-size-fits-all.
Please note: customization requests (such as tailoring the augmented-reality experience to your company goals, team, or theme) must be submitted at least two weeks before your event date so the app can be prepared in time.
