Questions about this template
- How do visitors start the game?
- They scan the QR code on the first stand with their phone camera. The game opens in the browser, so there is nothing to install and no sign-up slowing down the queue at your booth.
- Can the riddles point to our own brand and stands?
- Yes. Swap the banner word for your slogan, the year for a real milestone of your company and the room for your own venue. Every question, answer and reveal can be changed, even after the link is shared.
- Are the riddles too hard for passers-by?
- No, each one takes about a minute: a common English greeting, a leap year and a Latin room name. Every stand has an optional hint, so nobody walks away from your booth frustrated.
- Is this template free?
- Playing it and editing it in the builder are free for everyone. Publishing it with its paid options needs an Event Pass or Pro; remove them at Publish and it goes live on the free plan, for good.
- Can I change the answers and the texts?
- Yes. Every code, clue, hint and reward opens in the builder, and nothing is saved until you publish.
- What do players need?
