Scavenger Hunt
Race to find it first
👥 2–15 players⏱ 10–25 min
Objective
The host calls out prompts (“something blue”, “a souvenir from a trip”) and players race to grab the item and show it on camera. Being the first finder earns a bonus, and consecutive finds build a streak multiplier.
How to play
- The host starts the hunt and reveals the first prompt with a timer.
- Players dash to find a matching item and hit “Found it!” when they have it.
- The host confirms valid finds; the first finder gets a bonus and quick finds score higher.
- Keep your streak alive across prompts for a multiplier, then see the final leaderboard.
Strategy
- Stage likely items (a mug, a charger, something colorful) within arm's reach before you start.
- Protect your streak — a steady find every round beats one heroic sprint then nothing.
- When a prompt is vague, grab the closest defensible item fast rather than hunting the perfect one.
Tips
- Play somewhere with room to move and good lighting for the camera reveal.
- Speed matters most early; the first-finder bonus is worth the scramble.
- Hosts: keep prompts findable in a home or office in under 30 seconds.
