Amazing Features for Amazing Events

📱 One team, multiple devices

Don't be limited by physical maps and puzzle pieces — players can use separate devices to play the game at the same time.

🔗 Synchronised in real-time

When a player of the same team completes a task, it is shown as completed for everyone.

💬 In-app team chat

Chat among team members via the in-app chat room — no need to switch between game and messaging apps.

📍 Location-based tasks

Create "physical stations" across the map where players have to go before being able to see a task.

 

The stations can be configured to be hidden from the map too.

✨ Multiple task types

PlayTours support a variety of answer types: text, integers, numbers, QR/barcodes, location and check-in.

 

You can also accept images and videos and have them verified manually by a facilitator.

📈 Infinitely extensible

Embed anything you can find online — Google documents, 360 virtual walks, crossword & jigsaw puzzles, etc.

⚡ No installs required

No app installs are required. Players just need to open a URL using any modern web browser.

❓ Let players "buy" hints

Players stuck for too long? Let them buy hints with limited credits. Alternatively, drop a hint after a predefined time if they are stuck for too long.

📢 In-app announcements

Our in-app messaging allows you to broadcast important updates to all players instantly. No need for a separate messaging app.
