Our hunts are interactive experiences that will have you working together to decipher clues, solve puzzles, complete tasks, and discover new things. Think of it like an escape room mixed with a scavenger hunt.
How do we play?
The city is your game board! Each hunt has specified boundaries to help guide your hunt. Solving the riddles will take you to various locations within the boundaries where you may earn points for solving the clue, receive more clues, or work to complete a puzzle or task.
How are Fargo Hunts scored?
Your team is awarded points for each riddle that is solved or task that is completed. Fewer points are earned when hints are used. Leaderboards for all of our scavenger hunts can be viewed on our website.
Who can play a Fargo Hunt?
Our scavenger hunts are designed with groups of up to 4 adults (1-4 👥) in mind; however your team may be larger or smaller. It is recommended that groups larger than 4 divide into two smaller groups and compete against each other, giving the first team a head start to avoid congestion on the course.
What do we need to be able to play?
These hunts operate primarily using our website along with information discovered throughout the hunt. Therefore your group will need access to a smartphone. Simply opening our website in your phone's web browser will allow you to play without any additional app downloads. Only one person in your group needs to manage the smartphone.
How do we get around?
In the description for each hunt, you will see an emoji that indicates if the hunt is designed as a walking (👣) or driving (🚗) hunt. The distances covered in driving hunts are usually too large to be covered on foot. Total distance covered in a walking hunt is typically not more than a mile and a half with many stops along the route. Stops on a walking hunt are typically a couple blocks apart. Driving between stops on a walking hunt may result in less of a quality experience overall.
Could this work for a team building exercise?
Yes! Each of our Fargo Hunts make great team building exercises. Like an escape room, we require teams to work together as they complete the hunt. If you have a specific team building exercise in mind, please contact us for ways that we could partner with you.
