About this experience
Using an app on your smartphone, you'll be given nearly 60 objects to find in Memphis during your scavenger hunt. You'll then explore the downtown area searching for the items. Once you've found the object, you'll send a photo in to score points. Along the way, you will perform challenges for even more points. You'll have 13 categories of objects you can find in this scavenger hunt, with each object varying in points depending on the difficulty. Don't worry, you won't be alone. You'll have a remote guide that will be chatting with you during your game if you need help or have a question. They will also encourage you and give you hints along the way! The objective of the game is to have fun, rank #1 on the leaderboard, and try to get as many points as possible by finding all of the objects!
