Description
Our Scavenger Hunts are points based games, in which teams compete against one another by completing a string of tasks and challenges on the handouts provided. BucketRace's goal is for players to discover new places, immerse in the local area's culture and community, and find the hidden gems within the routes they’re exploring. All alongside socialising, problem solving and getting creative with like-minded people.
Our Classic Scavenger Hunts are perfect for large groups, first timers, and people who want to experience one of our most tried and tested games. They come with an event host/team, bespoke handouts, and our classic scavenger hunt game. This game comprises of a set of location challenges, built around the route that you choose (you can read more about our locations here: Locations Page). A set of bespoke challenges related to your group, and a set of miscellaneous challenges personalised towards your game style (team building, hen/stag party or birthday).
Our Theatrical Scavenger Hunts are perfect for smaller groups, or for groups looking for a more immersive, intimate experience. This game comes with an in-character host, who has been specifically crafted around the culture and theme of the location you've chosen. Each character is well equipped with knowledge and trivia about the area, and they will provide a half time check point, where you'll play head-to-head games for additional points.
Our Virtual Scavenger Hunts were designed during lockdown, to allow teams to play in an engaging, immersive in door game, which encourages creative thinking, communication and teamwork, all from the comfort of your own home. The game's format is similar to our classic scavenger hunt; however, the location is your own home. We still offer a hosted version of this game for teams working in different locations around the world, and to say thank you to our community, we have provided a free download of this game in the members section of our website. Membership is free; however, you will be required to sign-up as a member to access the game. You can download the game here: Free Scavenger Hunts

FAQ's
How does it work?
Once you've enquired through our website, you will receive a product brochure, which outlines our different games and packages. Once you've confirmed your game, group size, location, event time/date, and the package you'd like to purchase, we will send you an invoice/payment link to confirm your booking, and an event organiser checklist.
The event organiser checklist includes a link to our bespoke questionnaire. Once you've filled in our bespoke questionnaire, you will receive an instruction email, with all the details about your game, as well as a draft copy of your bespoke game hands outs.
Once you've signed-off on your game, we send it for printing, and look forward to seeing you on game day.
On Game Day
We can meet at either a public meeting point located at the beginning of our game routes, or at a private venue such as a bar/pub or office space. Once the event begins we play an icebreaker game to divide players into teams, then we present each team with your bespoke handouts. Teams will need to assign a team captain, who will be required to sign-in through Google to access the game. Their phone will be responsible for submitting all your team's photos and videos as evidence that you've completed various tasks and challenges. Once the team captains have signed-in they will be required to complete a practice section, which includes the task "Take a team selfie", as well as a text box to assign your team a name. We will award the best team name an extra 5 points.
Once the practice section has been submitted, players will be familiar with the technology and ready to start the game. Before we begin we will run through the rules, FAQ's and answer any questions. Then teams will have a set amount of time (defined by your before game day), to work out how they're going to earn the most points, and be crowned BucketRace champions.
When individual teams arrive at the designated finish line, any additional services will be handed out to players, such as medals and experience photos. Once all the teams have arrived, a selection of tasks and challenges will be showcased to the group on either an iPad or big screen (depending on the finish location), and then we will hand out trophies for the most creative and funniest team. Then we run backwards from the lowest scoring team to the highest scoring team, and hand out trophies for 3rd, 2nd and 1st place. Once the game has ended all the team captains will receive a follow up email with the scores, and all the tasks/challenges that have been submitted on the day.
