We just played our first photo scavenger hunt with friends, and everyone had a blast. The team and facilitator sides were easy to use, and instant communication made it fun. One thing that was important to me was the fantastic customer service.

5 stars, I highly recommend it. I love PlayTours!!! I was looking for a robust game system, but didn't want to pay a corporate-sized fee for individual access. PlayTours is the best site I found that offered the best of both worlds. As a non-techie person, I was pleased with how user-friendly it is.

I appreciate how simple the instructions were laid out and how simple it was for our participants. So many features and it felt like it was our own scavenger hunt and not just another generic app!

We are designed for use in any country and have supported events from every continent for their event gamification. If you are able to access "https://get.playtours.app", it means that we are supported.
We have an unlimited free trial with 25 concurrent devices (with a PlayTours watermark) for you to create and test your game. Payment is only required when you start using PlayTours for actual events with 5 or more concurrent active devices, with the watermark removed.
PlayTours, a scavenger hunt creator app, is a platform for anyone to build their own, customised games. To prevent any conflicts of interest, we do not have ready-made games available. However, we do have demo games added to your account upon registration to give you an idea of how games are built.
Our Solutions Team will respond within 12 hours via email at hello@playtours.app or through the contact form on this page. We will provide detailed guidance on how you can implement your ideas on PlayTours.
The term "player" refers to a single, human entity. In other words, when we use the word "player," we are specifically referring to a human being who is participating in the activity.
The term 'device' refer to the physical piece of equipment, regardless of how many individuals are using it at the same time. For example, if this activity is played on the smartphone, and five individuals are using the same smartphone to play that game, it is still considered to be only one device.
No. PlayTours is web-based. Players open a link or scan a QR code in the browser — no App Store or Play Store install.
Goosechase and Scavify are app-focused scavenger hunt tools. PlayTours is built for no-download events: browser play, a free commercial tier (25 concurrent devices with watermark), and ISO 27001. See the comparison table above and our Goosechase guide and Scavify guide.
